Edizione: first easton press collector's edition. the creator of a new european theatre, ibsen was "one of the greatest poets and the greatest mystics who ever devoted himself to the drama." ibsen's plays stressed the supremacy of the individual, and their tragic component centered on the denial of love. hedda gabler is his most popular work. to many, ibsen was the harbinger of modern, 20th century theater. gritty and controversial, his influence can be seen in the writings of the likes of eugene o’ neil and tennessee williams. these great plays are still widely performed and studied today.<br> a handsomely bound book containing a number of ibsen’s most important plays inclluding an enemy of the people, hedda gabler and the wild duck.
