Rosmersholm
1886
Rosmersholm is an 1886 play by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen, centered on Johannes Rosmer, an ex-clergyman grappling with the aftermath of his wife's suicide and his evolving relationship with Rebecca West, his companion. The play delves into themes of personal freedom, societal expectations, and the haunting effects of guilt, set against a backdrop of political tension and moral dilemmas. Written in Danish, it is regarded as one of Ibsen's most complex works, exploring the struggle between idealism and conservatism in a changing society.
