Pertany a aquestes sèriesIbsen Plays (5) Conté
''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 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)'' No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

These are two of Ibsen's earlier plays, written before he had entirely hammered out his definitive theories on drama. This perhaps makes them less likely to be popular now, but it does mean that they're surprisingly mainstream and well-paced. Fascinating reading for Ibsen-philes, although the first three volumes in the series contain the plays you're more likely to come across. ( )
