Characterization in Henrik Ibsen's "The Master Builder"
Character analysis of the main characters in Ibsen's play "The Master Builder."
1,888 words (approx. 7.6 pages) | 2 sources | 2001 Belgium


Paper Summary:

This essay focuses on the characters of the three central personalities in "The Master Builder": Halvard Solness, Aline Solness, and Hilde Wangel. Personal traits and the relationship of individuals to each other as a means of plot development are viewed as well as a discussion of what each character shows us about the human identity and soul.

From the Paper:

"The character of Hilde Wangel stands as the "wild bird of the forest" or foil to Aline's conservatism. Her appearance breaks the tension that we feel between Kaja the bookkeeper, Halvard, and Mrs. Solness in the first act, and draws attention to the magnificent and culminatory events at Lysanger ten years earlier."

Thank you for looking at my essay. I am from the "old school." I wrote my first term papers and essays back in the 1970s: the days of typewriters, carbon paper, all-night library sessions on No-Doz, and note cards. It was harder than you might imagine, but as a result I learned how to write with focus, excellent grammar and vocabulary, and a clear style. Those are the qualities you will find in all my work here, which are new and written as part of my recent graduate studies. They are certain to help you with your assigned essay or term paper. All are top quality "A" papers and show the kind of creativity and original analysis that university instructors look for.
