Bøker av Henrik Ibsen

Gengangere er et drama skrevet af Henrik Ibsen, udgivet 12. december 1881. Det kom som efterfølger til hans naturalistiske dramaer: Samfundets støtter (1877) og Et dukkehjem (1879).Gengangere forsætter i den naturalistiske stil, og formen er forsat baseret på den neo-klassiske form, som Ibsen mestrer.Værket er oversat til adskillige sprog, og på engelsk bærer det titlen "Ghost".Gengangere er et familiedrama i tre akter, uden intern sceneinddeling.Dramaet handler om fru Alving, som åbner et asyl i sin afdøde mand, kaptajn og kammerherre Alvings navn. Hun får hjælp af pastor Manders, barndomsven og præst af kaptajn Alving til at administrere de økonomiske forhold. Fru Alving er lykkelig over at hendes søn, Oswald, er vendt hjem fra det store udland på ubestemt tid. Ydermere findes bi-historien om forholdet imellem tjenestepigen Regine og hendes far Jakob Engstrand.(Wikipedia)Som dramaet udvikler sig, viser det sig at kaptajn Alving var en synder, som skejede sig ud og førte en dårlig livsstil. fru Alving tog opgaven at dække over denne adfærd, efter hun forsøgte at forlade Alving til fordel for præsten, efter et års ægteskab. Manders førte pligten over lykken, og overtalte fru Alving til at vende tilbage, hvorefter fru Alving begyndte at holde kaptajn Alvings livsstil skjult.Hun kunne dog ikke forhindre at kaptajnen forgreb sig på deres tjenestepige, som kom i ulykke. Hun fik 300 specier, og valgte at gifte sig med Jakob Engstrand. Johanne, tjenestepigen, fortalte det var en engelsk kaptajn som havde bragt hende i uføre, og hun fører dermed løgnene videre.Fru Alving tager barnet til sig senere Regine. Oswald forelsker sig i Regines ydre, og ønsker hun skal hjælpe ham, da han er blevet syg. Man antager der menes syfilis, en sygdom man dengang mente var arvelig, og som førte til sindsyge og anfald.Sideløbende narrer Engstrand Manders til at holde andagt i asylet, men efterlader et lys, så asylet går op i røg. Efter denne brand rulles alle løgnene op, og dramaet ender med Oswalds mentale død, og fru Alvings sindssyge.

Vildanden: Dramaet utspiller seg hos familien Ekdal, som tilsynelatende lever et lykkelig liv. Da farens ungdomsvenn Gregers Werle en dag dukker opp, begynner familiemedlemmenes livsløgner gradvis å bli avdekket. Dermed utvikles også tragedien som rammer barnet.

Et sammensatt dramatisk diktverk om mennesker i konflikt og dyptgripende sjelestrid. Brand er en ung prest som ankommer en liten bygd med en sterk kallstanke. Hans kompromissløse krav - til seg selv og andre - om tro og livsførsel reiser en rekke konflikter og etiske dilemmaer.

Et fortellende dikt om skjebnen til sjømannen Terje Vigen. Diktet beskriver indre vekst og modning, fra ung utferdstrang gjennom familieansvar og vågemot, tap av alt og nagende hevntørst til et frigjørende gjennombrudd som fører til at han kan tilgi den som knuste hans lykke.

I Når vi døde vågner gør Ibsen direkte en kunstner til hovedperson. En billedhugger giver afkald på kærlighed og menneskelighed for at nå berømmelse. Dramaet behandler samtidig kunstens dobbelthed som udtryk for en utopisk og kritisk impuls.Henrik Ibsens dramaer har konflikten mellem individet og det omgivende samfunds institutioner som tematisk centrum. De udtrykker en oplevelse, som tilsyneladende indebærer, at individet søger forandringer, som baner vej ud af et snævert, gammelt samfund. Fremskridtet foregøgler både individuel og social frihed, men det viser sig, at længslen efter en eksistens, som tænkes at forsone det frie individ med samfundet, kun er en illusion. Idealerne knuses af realiteterne. Den sociale udvikling, som skulle frigøre individet fra det traditionelle samfunds lænker, afskærer enkeltmennesket fra en social helhed. Moderniteten indebærer fremkomsten af det løsrevne, isolerede individ.Denne ambivalens i forhold til moderniseringsprocesserne er en stadig tilbagevendende følelsesstruktur i Henrik Ibsens værker, og den kom til at blive bærende i 1900-t.s litteratur. På den måde kan Ibsen betragtes som den første moderne store internationale dramatiker.Han skrev på sin samtids dansk-norske skriftsprog, men var ikke primært nogen national forfatter. Hans værker påvirkede og provokerede intellektuelle, forfattere og dramatikere i samtid og eftertid.(Store Danske Encyklopædi)
