Ibsen

Henrik Ibsen was a Norwegian playwright and poet, often regarded as one of the founders of modern drama. Active during the 19th century, his works addressed complex social issues, individual morality, and the constraints of society, challenging conventional ideas of his time. Plays like "A Doll’s House" and "Hedda Gabler" explore themes of gender roles, personal freedom, and the quest for identity. Ibsen's realistic and impactful storytelling laid the groundwork for later playwrights and significantly influenced Western theatre, making him a pivotal figure in the evolution of dramatic literature.
