The subsequent despondency of his parents would later recur in Ibsen's plays, his parents serving as models of human wreckage. After a brief stint with the Norwegian Theater in Bergen, Ibsen moved to Oslo in 1857, married in 1859, and suffered through great financial hardship. Having received little recognition as a playwright, he began a 27-year expatriation in Italy in 1864. Brand(1865), published in Coppenhagen in 1866, was a success, as was Peer Gant(1867). Subsequent plays moved from social satire into a more experimental realm. \u003ci\u003e A Doll's House \u003c\/i\u003e(1879) and \u003ci\u003eGhosts\u003c\/i\u003e (1881) aroused public outcry for their iconoclasm and \u003ci\u003eAn Enemy of the People\u003c\/i\u003e (1882) dealt with the controversy. The Wild Duck(1884) introduced a new naturalistic style, later celebrated by Chekov. Despite his clashes with public opinion, Ibsen returned to Norway in 1891. He died in Oslo in 1906.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bantam Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44686728364269,"sku":"9780553212808","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_0aa70fba-df70-4215-935c-9ca52ea67686.jpg?v=1754408854","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/four-great-plays-by-henrik-ibsen-9780553212808","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
