Ibsen's Lively Art: A Performance Study of the Major Plays. A play is fundamentally a text for performance, capable of achieving complete expression only in the living encounter between
actor and spectator,
Les mer... the Markers argue in their new study of Henrik Ibsen in the theatre. The challenge of his plays has stimulated
a remarkable range of creative responses on the part of actors, directors, and stage designers. All agree that a deeper meaning
underlies the 'reality' Ibsen represents, yet the precise manner of its expression is the lively variant that gives his greatest
plays their abiding fascination in performance. Ibsen's Lively Art explores key stage productions and clusters of productions
in detail, in an effort to shed new light on the central problems of interpretation governing each of six major Ibsen plays,
from a romantic work like Peer Gynt to a late 'symbolic' one like John Gabriel Borkman. Guided by primary sources and often
supported by their own firsthand observation, the authors push beyond the more familiar confines of English Ibsen into the
less commonly traversed territory of German, Russian, French, and, in particular, Scandinavian theatre culture.
