This collection of letters and speeches by Henrik Ibsen, the renowned Norwegian playwright and poet, offers a rare glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential literary figures of the 19th century. Edited by Evert Sprinchorn, a leading Ibsen scholar, this volume presents a comprehensive selection of Ibsen’s personal correspondence and public addresses, shedding light on his creative process, personal life, and philosophical views. Ibsen’s works, such as “A Doll’s House” and “Ghosts,” challenged societal norms and explored themes of truth, individualism, and the complexities of human relationships. His letters and speeches provide valuable insights into the cultural and intellectual climate of the time, as well as Ibsen’s own struggles and triumphs as a trailblazing writer. This edition, while showing signs of age, remains a treasured resource for scholars, collectors, and readers interested in delving into the mind of one of the most influential playwrights in modern theater.
