5.0 out of 5 stars
Extremely useful study aid,
By JEMc (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: "A Doll's House": York Notes Advanced (Paperback)
Like many of York Notes Advanced's titles, this provides an insightful and useful accompaniment to the study of Ibsen's play.
Clearly explained contextual information helps to shape a modern reader's understanding of why the play was so shocking. In-depth character analysis demonstrates the importance of each character in the play, how they each change throughout, and how our perceptions are altered as events unfold. Plot synopsis gives a chunk-by-chunk analysis of the play, and points out important quotes, themes, symbols, etc. Language and style analysis provides a thoroughly academic introduction to the novel. Thoroughly recommended for those studying the play or simply with an interest in Ibsen's work.
4.0 out of 5 stars
A good study guide.,

This review is from: "A Doll's House": York Notes Advanced (Paperback)
Granted, this book does not contain the full scripted play; however, I only needed basic information on it for my English Lit A2 'reading for meaning' exam. The book included: themes and relevant quotes, Acts and analysis, and pertinent quotes, character analysis, information on the Ibsen and information about historical context. If you're studying the play in isolation, you would definitely need to buy another book that actually contains the full script. If you want to get an overview, this is the book for you.

"A Doll's House" Revision Notes,
This review is from: "A Doll's House": York Notes Advanced (Paperback)
Product was brand new and was of great help! Could not have passed my A-Level Language and Literature without it. Gives detailed notes on the book and focuses on key concepts and ideas, great for understanding and analysing the play.
