Böcker av Henrik Ibsen

Written in 1881, when melodrama and farce were still at their peak of popularity, Ibsen¿s Ghosts is a three-act tragedy that explores uncomfortable, even forbidden themes. It is also a highly critical commentary on the morality of the day. The play centers around the widow of a prominent Norwegian sea captain whose son returns home and, with tragic consequences, revives the ghosts of the past that she has long labored to put to rest.Ghosts immediately became a source of controversy for its inclusion of topics like venereal disease, incest, and euthanasia, and it was banned from being performed in England for many years. Its arrival signals a shift in the nature of theatre and, despite negative criticism, it was translated into other languages and performed in Sweden, Germany, and New York within a few years of its debut. It stands now as one of the works considered to have ushered in the era of modern drama.

When decisions made to protect her husband come back to haunt her, Nora must fight for her family and for her own place in the world.Since its first theatrical run, in which every performance was sold out, A Doll¿s House has inspired admiration, controversy, and discussion. First published by Ibsen in 1879 in Danish, the official language of Danish-ruled Norway, A Doll¿s House sold out its first two printings within months. It first premiered at the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen within a month of publication, and the play was performed in Germany in 1880 and London in 1884.Initial translations changed the play, particularly the ending, to be more sympathetic and acceptable. Ibsen considered these changes to be a ¿barbaric outrage.¿ It wouldn¿t be until 1889 that the play was performed as written in London and Broadway.Ibsen¿s work pioneered realistic depictions of middle class families and social themes. He claimed that he didn¿t have feminist intentions in the writing of A Doll¿s House, instead aiming for ¿the description of humanity,¿ but the play is widely considered an essential feminist work and has had a real lasting impact: as recently as 2006, it was the most performed play in the world.

Sala acogedora, amueblada con gusto, pero sin lujo. En el fondo, a la derecha, una puerta conduce a la antesala, y a la izquierda, otra al despacho de Helmer. Entre ambas, un piano. En el centro del lateral izquierdo, otra puerta, y más allá, una ventana. Cerca de la ventana, una mesa redonda, con un sofá y varias sillas alrededor. En el lateral derecho, junto al foro, otra puerta, y en primer término, una estufa de azulejos, con un par de sillones y una mecedora enfrente. Entre la estufa y la puerta lateral, una mesita. Grabados en las paredes. Repisa con figuritas de porcelana y otros menudos objetos de arte. Una pequeña librería con libros encuadernados primorosamente. Alfombra. La estufa está encendida. Día de invierno. En la antesala suena una campanilla; momentos más tarde, se oye abrir la puerta. Nora entra en la sala tarareando alegremente, vestida de calle y cargada de paquetes, que deja sobre la mesita de la derecha. Por la puerta abierta de la antesala, se ve un Mozo con un árbol de Navidad y un cesto, todo lo cual entrega a la doncella que ha abierto.

An Enemy of the People, an 1882 play by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen, followed his previous play, Ghosts, which criticized the hypocrisy of his society's moral code. The term enemy of the people or enemy of the nation is a designation for the political or class opponents of the subgroup in power within a larger group. The term implies that by opposing the ruling subgroup, the "enemies" in question are acting against the larger group, for example against society. An Enemy of the People tells the story of a man who dares to speak an unpalatable truth and is punished for it. However, Ibsen took a somewhat sceptical view of his protagonist, suggesting that he may have gone too far in his zeal to tell the truth.
