A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Lady from tie Sea. name of Henrik Ibsen has now become so familiar to the English public it it seems almost needless to remind the reader of the incidents of his life. I may, lowever, be permitted to repeat once more iat the most illustrious Scandinavian writer our age was born in the little timber-port Skien, in Norway, on the 2O th of March, :828. His parents were Norwegian by citizenship, but of a stock in which Danish, rerman, and Scotch elements were curiously tingled. Like Keats, he was brought up to isy himself among plasters, pills, and ointicnt boxes, but soon threw off this bondage the apothecary. In 1850 he published a stiff historical tragedy of Catalina. From this he rose, slowly but steadily, to poetical work more characteristic of himself.
