Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ibsen and His Creation: A Psycho-Critical Study This book is an attempt to deal, above all, with Ibsen as representative of modern consciousness. In this respect it may be considered a comple ment to the merely aesthetic or merely social criticisms of Ibsen and his works. Although the present study forms an independent whole, it is nevertheless inwardly connected with my psycho - critical study of Dostoevsky (dostoevsky and his Creation, Collins) and also with two other studies which are to follow. The quotations from plays have been taken mainly from the excellent English edition of Ibsen's works arranged by William Archer (heinemann). For extracts from letters I am indebted to Hodder 8t Stoughton's Ibsen's Correspondence, and for those from speeches to Speeches and Letters of Ibsen (frank Palmer).

Download or read book Ibsen Plays 5 written by Henrik Ibsen and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two epic plays in this volume stand, together with Peer Gynt and The Pretenders, at the fulcrum of Ibsen's career. Brand (1865) stated sharply and vividly the necessity of following one's private conscience and 'being oneself'. It created an immediate sensation and was hailed by Strindberg as 'the voice of a Savonarola'. Emperor and Galilean (1873), which Ibsen referred to as his masterpiece, is both his farewell to the epic drama and the forerunner of his great naturalistic prose plays that were to burst on the nineteenth century. Michael Meyer's translations are 'crisp and cobweb-free, purged of verbal Victoriana' (Kenneth Tynan)
Download or read book The Henrik Ibsen Collection written by Henrik Ibsen and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Henrik Ibsen Collection Henrik Ibsen Includes: A Doll's House The Wild Duck Hedda Gabler An Enemy of the People Henrik Johan Ibsen; 20 March 1828 - 23 May 1906) was a major 19th-century Norwegian playwright, theatre director, and poet. He is often referred to as "the father of realism" and is one of the founders of Modernism in theatre. His major works include Brand, Peer Gynt, An Enemy of the People, Emperor and Galilean, A Doll's House, Hedda Gabler, Ghosts, The Wild Duck, Rosmersholm, and The Master Builder. He is the most frequently performed dramatist in the world after Shakespeare, and A Doll's House became the world's most performed play by the early 20th century. Several of his later dramas were considered scandalous to many of his era, when European theatre was expected to model strict morals of family life and propriety. Ibsen's later work examined the realities that lay behind many facades, revealing much that was disquieting to many contemporaries. It utilized a critical eye and free inquiry into the conditions of life and issues of morality. The poetic and cinematic early play Peer Gynt, however, has strong surreal elements.
Download or read book Ibsen Plays 4 written by Henrik Ibsen and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Meyer's translations of Ibsen are a major fact in one's general sense of post-war drama. Their vital pace, their unforced insistence on the poetic centre of Ibsen's genius, have beaten academic versions from the field" (George Steiner) The plays shine freshly from the pages ...This will be our definitive Ibsen." (JC Trewin) This volume contains Ibsen's first great modern prose play and his two last symbolic dramas. The Pillars of Society, written between 1875 and 1877, exhibits many of the classic elements which recur in the subsequent plays - a marriage founded on a lie, women stunted by social conventions, an arrogant man destroying the happiness of those around him. John Gabriel Borkman (1896), according to Edvard Munch, is "the most powerful winter landscape in Scandinavian art"; and Ibsen's last play, When We Dead Awaken (1899), also dealing with "the coldness of heart", showed, said Bernard Shaw, "no decay of Ibsen's highest qualities. His magic is nowhere more potent.Michael Meyer's translations are 'crisp and cobweb-free, purged of verbal Victoriana' (Kenneth Tynan)
Download or read book Henrik Ibsen written by Ivo de Figueiredo and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magnificent new biography of Henrik Ibsen, among the greatest of modern playwrights Henrik Ibsen (1820–1908) is arguably the most important playwright of the nineteenth century. Globally he remains the most performed playwright after Shakespeare, and Hedda Gabler, A Doll’s House, Peer Gynt, and Ghosts are all masterpieces of psychological insight. This is the first full-scale biography to take a literary as well as historical approach to the works, life, and times of Ibsen. Ivo de Figueiredo shows how, as a man, Ibsen was drawn toward authoritarianism, was absolute in his judgments over others, and resisted the ideas of equality and human rights that formed the bases of the emerging democracies in Europe. And yet as an artist, he advanced debates about the modern individual’s freedom and responsibility—and cultivated his own image accordingly. Where other biographies try to show how the artist creates the art, this book reveals how, in Ibsen’s case, the art shaped the artist.

Also included is An Enemy of the People (1883), whose central character was the actor Konstantin Stanislavski's favourite role.Michael Meyer's translations are 'crisp and cobweb-free, purged of verbal Victoriana' (Kenneth Tynan)
