Write the character sketch of Dr. Stockmann.
Advertisements
उत्तर
Dr. Stockmann is an idealistic man, which means that he believes in doing what is morally right. This is clear from his resolve to make sure the contamination issue of the baths is fixed at any cost. However, this also makes him impractical. He does not take into consideration the cost of the repairs or the effect of closing the baths on the town‘s economy. In the fight for the truth, he represents the minority. Betrayed by his supporters and left alone, Dr. Stockmann does not admit defeat but instead strengthens his commitment towards revealing the truth to the public at all costs. This displays his bravery to fight against all odds and his resolute nature. Finally, in his determination to expose the social evils of society, Dr. Stockmann is willing to put society‘s interest above his own, which makes him come across as a truly noble character.
