Four Great Plays: A Doll's House, Ghosts, An Enemy of the People, The Wild Duck

內容簡介

內容簡介 Here, in a single volume, are four major plays by the first modern playwright, Henrik Ibsen. 1.GHOSTS-the startling portrayal of a family destroyed by disease and infidelity. 2.THE WILD DUCK-a poignant drama of lost illusions. 3.AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE-Ibsen's vigorous attack on "public opinion." 4.AND A DOLL'S HOUSE-the play that scandalized the Victorian world with its unsparing views of love and marriage, featuring one of the most controversial heroines-and one of the most famous exits-in the literature of the stage. Although Ibsen outraged many of his contemporaries, he persisted: he shocked the unthinking into thinking and blasted through the thick fog of convention to the restless human passions hidden underneath. Today, his plays remain masterpieces of psychological insight and theatrical power. With an introduction and prefaces to each play by John Gassner

作者介紹

作者介紹 Ibsen, HenrikHenrik Johan Ibsen (1828–1906) was a nineteenth-century Norwegian theater producer, poet, and three-time nominee for the Nobel Prize in Literature.Born to a merchant family in the port town of Skein, Ibsen’s career began at the Det norske Theater in Bergen, where he served as producer, director, and writer. After the failure of his first ten plays, Ibsen finally gained critical attention with Peer Gynt. Its unsentimental realism and disregard for convention would become the hallmarks of Ibsen’s liberating and controversial dramas that followed, notably An Enemy of the People, A Doll’s House, Hedda Gabler, and Ghosts. A cofounder of the modernist movement, Ibsen was a foremost influence on writers such as George Bernard Shaw, Eugene O’Neill, and Arthur Miller.
