| Summary | "The Collected Works of Henrik Ibsen Vol. 10" by Henrik Ibsen is a collection of two renowned plays, "Hedda Gabler" and "The Master Builder," written in the late 19th century. The book showcases Ibsen's mastery in exploring complex characters and their psychological struggles against societal norms and personal desires. Thematically, it delves into the intricacies of human relationships, ambition, and the constraints created by societal expectations. At the start of "Hedda Gabler," the focus is on the titular character, Hedda, as she navigates her new life as the wife of George Tesman, a man absorbed in his academic pursuits. The opening scene reveals Hedda's cold and restless nature, showcasing her disdain for conventional domestic life. Adding tension, her former lover, Eilert Lövborg, is introduced as a looming presence in her thoughts, suggesting complications ahead. Meanwhile, "The Master Builder" is set to explore the life of Halvard Solness, hinting at existential themes tied to his ambitions and fears. Together, the beginning of these plays establishes a framework for intense character studies that challenge societal roles, promising engaging narratives that will resonate with readers interested in psychological drama.
