Portfolio Post #1 ADH

For this ADH Unit, we have written a complete analysis of a specific act in the play. In this analysis, we focus on different scenes that occurred in act 2 and analyze it with deeper understandings and ideas. For my act 2 analysis, it focuses on the scene that Dr. Rank is being pessimistic about his circumstances in society. He receives a lot of fo pressure from societal norms and his illness as well, which he demonstrates his pessimism throughout different reasons in the play. I believe I can write a better analysis by providing more specific and detailed on the intentions of Dr. Rank’s interaction with Nora and has a more comprehensive overall view of the scene with a solid conclusion sentence.


Furthermore, in order to investigate more deeply on this play, we have several discussions about some specific topics that either directly or indirectly shown throughout the play. For me, I received a topic about “in what ways does the family depicted in the work help you to understand the culture surrounding the nature of love and marriage?”, which it is essential to look at the family especially on their tone and interactions with each other. Evidence and interpretation must be provided and explained throughout the discussion, and more essentially, this discussion benefits me by knowing some additional ideas or opinions from my classmates which help to strengthen my understanding of the act. I believe I can do better on explaining my own points and ideas with more confidence and fluency so that people will be able to truly understand my points. I think it will be important to provide a beneficial point of view from myself throughout the discussion.
