<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Pillars of the community translation of: Samfundets sttter; Doll's house translation of: Dukkehjem (Nora); Ghosts translation of: Gengangere; Enemy of the people translation of: En folkefiende.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Four of Ibsen's most important plays in superb modern translations, part of the new Penguin Ibsen series.</b><br> With her assertion that she is "first and foremost a human being," rather than a wife, mother or fragile doll, Nora Helmer sent shockwaves throughout Europe when she appeared in Henrik Ibsen's greatest and most famous play, <i>A Doll's House</i>. Ibsen's follow-up, <i>Ghosts</i>, was no less radical, with its unrelenting investigation into religious hypocrisy, family secrets, and sexual double-dealing. These two masterpieces are accompanied here by <i>The Pillars of Society</i> and <i>An Enemy of the People</i>, both exploring the tensions and dark compromises at the heart of society.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>HENRIK IBSEN<b> </b>(1828-1906) is often called 'the Father of Modern Drama'. Born in Norway in 1828, he enjoyed successes with the verse dramas <i>Brand</i> and <i>Peer Gynt</i>, before embarking on his great 12-­play cycle of society dramas, which included <i>A Doll's House</i> and <i>Ghosts</i>. After twenty-­one years of self-­imposed exile in Italy and Germany, Ibsen died in Norway in 1906. <p/>DEBORAH DAWKIN and ERIK SKUGGEVIK, are freelance literary translators. <p/>TORE REM is a professor of British literature at the University of Oslo.
