George vs Lovburg
George’s bumbling ordinariness contrasts vividly and humorously with Lövborg’s flamboyant and creative brilliance. Where George writes about the “domestic industries of in the middle ages,” Eilert works on a book dealing with the “civilizing forces” of humanity in the future. George delights in researching among old manuscripts while Lövborg considers the problems of the future. George can be seen as a man of the past, who conforms to tradition while Lövborg can be viewed as a man of the future, an enlightened man who goes against the constraints of the life of an alleged “ordinary” man.
