| Summary | "The Collected Works of Henrik Ibsen, Vol. 03" by Henrik Ibsen is a collection of dramatic works, specifically focusing on the play "Brand," which was written in the mid-19th century. This volume not only includes the text of the play but also features an introduction that discusses its significance in Scandinavian literature and Ibsen's exploration of existential themes. The central character, Brand, is portrayed as a priest grappling with profound moral questions and the struggle between individual will and societal norms. The opening of "Brand" introduces the titular character as he navigates a treacherous mountain landscape, accompanied by a peasant and his son. The setting conveys a sense of isolation and impending danger as Brand remains steadfast in his mission, seemingly driven by divine purpose, refusing to turn back despite warnings. This initial encounter sets the stage for Brand’s uncompromising worldview, emphasizing themes of faith, sacrifice, and the human condition. Through these interactions, Ibsen introduces the audience to the complex moral fabric that will define the rest of the play, showcasing Brand's determination to confront life’s challenges, no matter the cost.
