The Master Builder, first published in 1892, is one of Henrik Ibsena?(TM)s most celebrated and complex plays. This edition presents the complete text of the play in three acts, offering readers a deep dive into the world of Halvard Solness, a successful architect grappling with his ambitions, fears, and the consequences of his choices.
Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century Norway, the play explores themes of artistic creation, guilt, and the yearning for the unattainable. Solness, haunted by his past and driven by a relentless desire for control, finds himself at a crossroads when a young woman named Hilde Wangel re-enters his life, challenging his established order and awakening long-suppressed desires.
Ibsena?(TM)s masterful use of symbolism and psychological depth makes a??The Master Buildera?? a timeless exploration of the human condition, resonating with audiences and readers to this day. Its enduring themes and compelling characters continue to provoke thought and discussion, solidifying its place as a cornerstone of modern drama.
