Wikipedia page about this book: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papa_Hamlet Etext created by Norman Werner and proofed by William Fishburne "Papa Hamlet" by Bjarne P. Holmsen is a dramatic work written in the late 19th century. It can be categorized as a literary drama that explores themes of existential despair and the trials of the creative spirit. The play delves into the struggles of the protagonist, Niels Thienwiebel, who embodies a modern incarnation of Hamlet and navigates the complexities of life, relationships, and artistic ambition. The storyline revolves around Niels Thienwiebel, who is a troubled actor and the self-proclaimed "great Hamlet from Trondhjem." He grapples with feelings of worthlessness and despair, reflected in his interactions with his wife, Amalie, and friend, Ole Nissen. As he faces the challenges of performing and his domestic responsibilities, Niels oscillates between moments of theatrical grandeur and profound melancholy. The narrative intricately portrays themes of familial disillusionment, the burdens of artistic identity, and the broader social commentary of the time, offering readers an insight into the struggles of a man torn between ambition and the harsh realities of his existence.
