Over dit e-boek
When We Dead Awaken by Henrik Ibsen is a deeply introspective and profound play that delves into themes of artistic crisis, human mortality, and the search for meaning in life. Written in a poetic and symbolic style, the play reflects the late 19th-century literary context of European modernism. Ibsen's use of vivid imagery and complex characters creates a haunting and thought-provoking experience for the reader. The exploration of the protagonist's inner turmoil and existential questions adds a layer of depth to the narrative. Overall, When We Dead Awaken is a compelling work of literature that challenges the reader to reflect on the nature of existence and the pursuit of true self-discovery.
Over de auteur
Henrik Ibsen, born on March 20, 1828, in Skien, Norway, is often referred to as the 'father of modern drama.' He crafted a new genre of realistic plays that reflected the concerns and problems of ordinary people, deviating from the melodramatic and highly stylized theater of his time. Ibsen's theater was revolutionary for its directness, its examination of the individual's struggles against societal norms, and its use of symbolism. Throughout his career as a playwright, he gained international recognition, particularly for his masterpieces such as 'A Doll's House' and 'Hedda Gabler'. One of his later works, 'When We Dead Awaken' (1899), serves as Ibsen's final play and is often interpreted as an autobiographical reflection on his own life and career, dealing with themes of artistic inspiration, regret, and the complex relations between the artist and his creations. This play, like many of his others, is characterized by its symbolic and expressionistic elements that set the stage for modernist and post-modernist dramas. Ibsen's influence stretched beyond the realm of theater to affect social reform, particularly around the roles of women in society. His works continue to be performed worldwide and his contribution to the arts ensures his lasting legacy within the pantheon of great literary figures.
