I <3 you
Hjalmar. There now, Gregers; I have got that burden of debt off my mind.
Gregers. You soon will, at all events.
Hjalmar. I think my attitude may be called correct.
Gregers. You are the man I have always taken you for.
Hjalmar. In certain cases, it is impossible to disregard the claim of the ideal. Yet, as the breadwinner of a family, I cannot but writhe and groan under it. I can tell you it is no joke for a man without capital to attempt the repayment of a long-standing obligation, over which, so to speak, the dust of oblivion had gathered. But it cannot be helped: the Man in me demands his rights.
In this passage, there is a clear distinction as to who is the idolized figure and why that person is idolized. Hjalmar is a figure that is highly respected and well thought and seen through Greger's eyes. in the first line, the burden he refers to is not just Gina, but the symbolic nature of care. This is highly critical, and Ibsen uses this line to express how respect and rights go hand in hand. In the societal background of Ibsen, there was a time of pressure and norms to consider what is logical and pragmatic. This emphasis on pragmatism is sparked in the notion that there is a practicality in that respect goes to the one that is the 'breadwinner'. This is completely true in the culture that Ibsen saw, therefore to write it in his piece was to elaborate on the measure of confinement and restoration that he wanted to provide to the audience.
