An Enemy of the People by Henrik Ibsen Essay -- Enemy People Henrik Ib

An Enemy of the People by Henrik IbsenAn Enemy of the People deals with the extent to which individualdesires and beliefs ar compromised by society. In particular, theplay focuses on the ways in which an individual can be ostracized bythe society he is trying to att wind up. One primary heart of the play isthat the individual, who confirms alone, is more often right than themass of people, who are pictured as ignorant and sheep alike. Isben whoturned atheist during his encounter with Georg Brandes, presents manyChristian value in An enemy of the people, and religiousreferences.Both Dr. Stockmann and Mrs. Stockmann snitch signs of religiousreferences and show Christian values. We learn that Dr. Stockmann hasstrong moral values when it comes to honesty and fairness. From thefollo learng we can tell that he believes that the truth should non behidden from anyone let alone the community, and that the truth shallprevail in the end. I should think he would be very glad that such(p renominal) animportant truth has been brought to light. We can also see that thetruth is a very important part of Dr. Stockmanns life, and that thetruth is what right should be stood up for, as he says, In godsname, what else do you suppose I should do tho take my stand on rightand truth? and the truth and the people will win the fight you maybe certain. by from sticking up for the truth he also believes insticking up for what he believes in which is a strong Christian value.You can almost compare Jesus Christ to Dr. Stockmann as both stands upfor what they believe are the truth and what they believe in. Just asJesus preached to people to backbone his side, Dr Stockmann does the same.If I cant hire a hall, I shall... ... founding fathert know but I take ont like it.We also see many religious expressions made by her, such as goodheavens, or Good lord help us. She also makes reference to God whenspeaking to Dr. Stockmann., I dont know anything about it but Godpreserve us. Apar t from Mrs. Stockmann and Dr Stockmann showing somereligious reference we see Petra reveal that lumbering work is alsopresented as a good Christian value. Yes but that is good. One isso delightfully tired after it.In the end we see similarities in both Jesus and Dr. Stockman thatthey both contend to get the truth out to people, and that both areseen as enemies although they are in fact people doing right forothers. Dr Stockmann does stand alone in the end but he was the one inthe right, and stood up to his believes, and in his mind, thestrongest man in the world is he who stands most alone.
