| Four
of Ibsen's greatest and most popular plays come alive in these
theatrically-inspired and production tested translations. Davis
and Johnston bring to Ibsen a fresh combination of scholarly insight
and a sense of what communicates into theater. Too often Ibsen
in English ends up sounding like a quaint Victioran parlor dramatist.
These texts capture some things that are often missed-the wit
and humor, the purposeful use of certain repeated images, and
the sense of daring that helped make Ibsen a revolutionary figure not
just for the 19th Century, but for all time to come. |
