Conservation analysis has become the focus of investigative interest in recent years
among discourse analysts. There is shift towards the investigation of characters in
literature through their conversation seen as speech acts. The main goal of this
paper is to analyse the use of the locutionary and illocutionary meanings in an
extract from Ibsen’s A Doll’s House in order to investigate its impact on the
characters’ actions and reactions. An examination has been made of the interplay
between the direct and indirect speech acts which steer the plot to its inevitable
conclusion. Using these speech acts as tool an analysis has been made of the
imperative final conversation between Nora and Helmer, which not only forces
Helmer to reconsider his attitude but also changes the course of literature written
about women in the 19th century.
