Ibsen would both model and name characters in his plays after his own family. A central theme in Ibsen’s plays is the “unremitting portrayals of suffering women,” echoing his mother Marichen Altenburg; “Ibsen’s sympathy with women came from his understanding of their powerlessness, and his education began at home.”
