लेखक के बारे में
Henrik Ibsen, born on March 20, 1828, in Skien, Norway, is often heralded as the father of modern drama. He transformed the European stage with his realistic plays that delved into the heart of social issues and the complexities of human psychology. Ibsen’s work is marked by a rejection of the romantic traditions that dominated the 19th century, and he utilized a more critical, probing approach to character development and narrative structure. ‘PEER GYNT (Illustrated Edition)’ is one of his celebrated works, originally a five-act play in verse, which was first published in 1867. The play follows the eponymous character, Peer Gynt, through a fantastical and allegorical journey of self-discovery and self-indulgence, reflecting Ibsen’s preoccupation with the individual’s struggle against societal norms. Despite being less well-known internationally than some of his later works such as ‘A Doll’s House’ and ‘Hedda Gabler, ‘ ‘PEER GYNT’ reveals Ibsen’s growing awareness of the dramatic potential within the inner life of his characters. His contribution to literature extends beyond his narrative prowess; Ibsen is credited with laying the groundwork for modernist plays and influencing countless playwrights and novelists who followed. He passed away on May 23, 1906, in Christiania (now Oslo), but his legacy endures, as his plays continue to be performed and studied worldwide.
