![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik, Stephens Simon (TRN) Publisher: Bloomsbury Methuen Drama 'I think I'm a human being before anything else. I don't care what other people say. I don't care what people write in books. I need to think for myself.' Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House premiered in 1879 in Copenhagen, the second in a series of realist plays by Ibsen, and immediately provoked controversy with its apparently feminist message and exposure of the hypocrisy of Victorian middle-class marriage. In Ibsen's play, Nora Helmer has secretly (and deceptively) borrowed a large sum of money to pay for her husband, Torvald, to recover from illness on a sabbatical in Italy. Torvald's perception of Nora is of a silly, naive spendthrift, so it is only when the truth begins to emerge, and Torvald appreciates the initiative behind his wife, that unmendable cracks appear in their marriage. This compelling new version of Ibsen's masterpiece by playwright Simon Stephens premiered at the Young Vic Theatre, London, on 29 June 2012. It was updated with minor changes in 2013. € 13,20

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik; Perrelli F. (cur.) Publisher: Edizioni ETS Peer Gynt di Henrik Ibsen (1867) è, per i norvegesi, un'opera poetica fondante l'identità nazionale, come il Don Chisciotte per la Spagna, il Faust per la Germania e la Divina Commedia per l'Italia. In una più universale prospettiva, Peer Gynt ha del resto molte analogie con questi classici perché affronta i temi cruciali del destino civile e metafisico dell'uomo, del senso della sua esistenza e del suo impegno morale. Per questo, Harold Bloom l'ha definito il «centro di Ibsen»: un'immensa capricciosa e sconvolgente opera poetica, che sintetizza e concentra tutta la complessità della natura umana - sospesa fra eroismo e vigliaccheria, abnegazione e istinto, santità e perdizione analizzata e trasfigurata dal grande drammaturgo, con sguardo implacabile e profondo. € 32,00

![]() ![]() Author: Megson Chris (EDT), Ibsen Henrik, Strindberg August, Hauptmann Gerhart, Shaw Bernard Publisher: Bloomsbury Methuen Drama The Methuen Drama Book of Naturalist Plays is a collection of landmark dramatic works from the modern period that will prove invaluable to students and general readers alike. Emerging in the late nineteenth century, Naturalism in the theatre sought to strip away artifice and hold a mirror up to the world. This compendium offers six of the most commonly studied and performed Naturalist plays from the European repertoire, dating from 1879-1909. It includes: -Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House which in its depiction of Nora Helmer exploded contemporary gender conventions; -Miss Julie, August Strindberg's classic exploration of class mobility and sexual desire played out as a Darwinist struggle; -The Weavers, Gerhart Hauptmann's quintessential Marxist drama documenting a Silesian weavers' revolt; -Bernard Shaw's Mrs Warren's Profession which in addressing capitalism's exploitation of women was so ahead of its time that it did not receive a public production for over a quarter of a century; -Anton Chekhov's Three Sisters, often regarded as the writer's greatest play and one that commanded a new mode of acting, and -John Galsworthy's Strife which appraises class conflict amid an economic dispute. The six plays perfectly illustrate the formal diversity and the major philosophical, political and theatrical preoccupations of the movement. An introduction by Dr Chris Megson traces Naturalism's roots, explores its aims and methods, provides an analysis of the selected plays and considers Naturalism's legacy and resonance today. € 15,50

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik Publisher: BUR Biblioteca Univ. Rizzoli 'Brand' è considerato, insieme a 'Peer Gynt', il testo più alto e intenso di Ibsen. E la storia di un uomo che vuole 'guarire la razza dai suoi vizi e dalle sue imperfezioni'. In questa nostra epoca di moralisti e di nuovi predicatori, la figura del prete Brand e del suo tentativo di vivere secondo una perfetta virtù è una provocazione. Nella grandezza e tragedia di un personaggio che ha fatto dell'autonomia la sua religione e la sua passione civile, Brand è una delle figure centrali per capire l'angoscia e la crisi dell'uomo contemporaneo. E la poesia del linguaggio di Ibsen ci raggiunge ancora intatta e con la forza dei capolavori. € 9,90

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik; Alonge R. (cur.) Publisher: Rizzoli Un ritratto spietato e profondamente pungente del mondo della famiglia e dei rapporti tra i sessi, frutto di un'analisi degna della perizia di Freud. Un universo popolato da eroici capitani d'industria che sacrificano amore coniugale e paterno al lavoro e al potere, come il console Bernick o il costruttore Solness. Da antieroi o individui inetti sempre in attesa di compiere una trasformazione che non avverrà mai, come il dottor Stockmann o Johannes Rosmer. Da dolenti eroine, donne oppresse o represse, protagoniste di vicende luttuose e violente, come Nora o Hedda. E da strazianti figure di figli suicidi per amore dei padri come Hedvig e il piccolo Eyolf. Questa edizione raccoglie i dodici drammi (I sostegni della società; Una casa di bambola; Spettri; Un nemico del popolo; L'anitra selvatica; Casa Rosmer; La signora del mare; Hedda Gabler; Il costruttore Solness; Il piccolo Eyolf; John Gabriel Borkman; Quando noi morti ci destiamo) che l'inventore del 'teatro del salotto borghese' dedica alla società sua contemporanea. L'aridità dei rapporti e la brutalità degli istinti si riflette nella lingua dura, carica di simbolismo, che questa nuova traduzione dall'originale norvegese restituisce in tutta la sua potenza innovativa e destabilizzante. € 15,00

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik, Worral Non (EDT), Meyer Michael (TRN) Publisher: Bloomsbury Methuen Drama Ghosts is Ibsen's formidably realistic play about the effects of previous generations on the young, a stinging satire on contemporary Norwegian society and morality, and a haunting tragedy that, more than a century since it premiered, still retains its power to shock. In Ibsen's study of the lingering poison in a marriage based on a lie, Osvald Alving returns from Paris to his mother's home, carrying with him a dreadful secret. His mother's delight at having him home soon turns to horror and grief. The corruption that she had hoped to spare him from when sending him away from the influence of his depraved father has in fact infected his whole body in the form of syphillis. In Mrs Alving and her son's distrust of conventional religion and mores and Oswald's anguish with life, Ibsen created a thoroughly modern and provocative work that created widespread outrage and shock when first produced in 1881.

![]() ![]() Author: Poulton Mike (ADP), Ibsen Henrik Publisher: Consortium Book Sales & Dist Johannes Rosmer has resigned as parish priest following the suicide of his wife. But his increasingly liberal ideas make him an object of suspicion to the local worthies, who also disapprove of the presence in his house of a much younger woman, Rebecca West, formerly his wife's companion. As their relationship deepens and their isolation builds, the increasing moral pressures they face force them inexorably towards their fate. Rosmersholm presents a portrait of idealism and democracy floundering in a society of conservatism and opportunism. Mike Poulton's new version of Ibsen's Rosmersholm premiered at the Almeida Theatre, London, with Helen McCrory and Paul Hilton, directed by Anthony Page. € 20,80

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik; Alonge R. (cur.); Perrelli F. (cur.) Publisher: Rizzoli Sarebbe facile immaginare una messa in scena di 'Spettri' con i protagonisti in chitone, maschera e calzari. Come nei grandi miti della tragedia greca, qui si mescolano incesto, follia, verità terribili dopo anni di menzogna. L'ambientazione però è quella di un'allucinata campagna norvegese, resa grigia e stagnante, come l'animo dei personaggi, da una pioggia battente. Un luogo in cui il sole e il calore arrivano inutilmente e sempre troppo tardi. Quello di Ibsen è un realismo che svela l'ipocrisia della morale borghese, fondata sul perbenismo e sulla religiosità di facciata. E questa storia è una denuncia coraggiosa che, come raccontano Roberto Alonge e Franco Perrelli nell'introduzione, fece bandire la 'pièce' per molti anni dai palcoscenici norvegesi. € 9,00

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik, Rudall Nicolas (TRN) Publisher: Ivan R Dee In one of his most provocative essays, Ibsen offers a rebuke to the Victorian notion of community as well as to the blessings of democracy. His An Enemy of the People creates a situation in which one must stand alone to face the forces allied against him. In a coastal town, a community-minded physician has promoted the development of public baths in order to attract tourists. When he discovers that the water supply for the baths is contaminated and attempts to publicize the failing and correct it, he encounters political cowards, sold-out journalists, shortsighted armchair economists, and a benighted citizenry. His own principled idealism exacerbates the conflict, and after a public speech that turns into a tirade, the townsfolk label him an enemy of the people. He and his family are all but driven out of the town he was trying to save. Nicholas Rudall's translations of Ibsen have brought a fresh perspective to the American theatre. His new rendering of An Enemy of the People makes the play more speakable, more American in its speech patterns, and more reflective of the levels of diction required by the class, education, and affectations of the characters. € 8,90

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik, Rudkin David (TRN) Publisher: Oberon Books Ltd The three plays in this volume are representative of Ibsen's extraordinary achievement as a playwright. The first is perhaps his best known work, the great dramatic poem Peer Gynt, presented here in the acclaimed translation used by the Royal Shakespeare Company for its 1982 production. With this are Rosmersholm, in which Ibsen unmasks the moral evasions which prevent us from being truly free, and When We Dead Waken, in which a figure from the past rises to haunt an ageing artist. These distinctive translations are accompanied by an introductory foreword and are followed by notes on pronunciations and other details and aspects of Ibsen's original texts. € 19,90

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik Publisher: Rizzoli Nora, un personaggio simbolo del movimento femminista occidentale: 'Una casa di bambola' è infatti la storia del coraggio e della ribellione di una donna. Una ribellione mite, lucida e acuta, una lenta presa di coscienza della propria condizione e la scelta di cambiare le cose, di imprimere alla vita un movimento diverso. Nora, la protagonista dell'opera di Ibsen, è una donna che è dovuta scendere a patti con l'esistenza, un compromesso dopo l'altro, all'interno del suo matrimonio con Torvaid, ma sarà anche in grado di decidere di rompere la complicità perversa che la lega alla sua casa, al privato, al domestico. Perché è questo il teatro del dramma ibseniano: l'interno borghese, il luogo dove tutto all'apparenza è equilibrato ma che nasconde al proprio interno pulsioni inimmaginabili. € 8,00

Rich in symbolism and often autobiographical, each of these dramas deals convincingly and provocatively with such universal themes as greed, fear, and sexual hostility, and confronts the eternal conflict between reality and illusion.

![]() ![]() Author: Ibsen Henrik Publisher: Garzanti I drammi qui raccolti, scritti tra il 1881 e il 1886, sono emblematici del tardo Ibsen e della sua cupa visione della società borghese come sistema repressivo che non concede agli individui alcuno spazio di libertà e gioia costringendoli a vivere nella perenne scissione tra ricerca di autenticità e menzogna delle convenzioni. Questa desolata tragicità scandisce l'amara parabola di Spettri, dove l'eredità del passato con i suoi fantasmi soffoca ogni possibilità di vita vera; l'apologo contro la tirannide della maggioranza del Nemico del popolo; la denuncia del fanatismo della verità che conduce alla rovina nell'Anitra selvatica; il peso schiacciante della tradizione e della morte in Rosmersholm. Poeta del disagio della civiltà, il grande drammaturgo norvegese delinea in questi testi l'utopia di un'umanità conciliata per la quale il valore consiste nel realizzare liberamente il proprio destino contro ogni forma di ipocrisia e viltà e l'unico vero peccato è il tradimento della propria vocazione.
