| Summary | "Vildanden" by Henrik Ibsen is a play structured in five acts, written during the late 19th century. This work delves into themes of illusion versus reality, exploring the lives of various characters, particularly focusing on Hjalmar Ekdal and his family, who are caught in the web of societal expectations and personal delusions. The opening of "Vildanden" introduces us to the characters at a dinner party hosted by the wealthy Grosserer Werle. The atmosphere is lively, filled with conversations and laughter, revealing both a sense of camaraderie and underlying tensions among the guests. As Grosserer Werle's son, Gregers, reconnects with his old friend Hjalmar Ekdal, their discussion hints at deeper issues within Hjalmar's life, including his struggles with his father's past and the strained relationships within his family. Meanwhile, characters such as old Ekdal and Gina, Hjalmar's wife, add layers to the narrative, setting the stage for the unfolding drama that intricately questions the nature of truth and the masks we wear in society.
