{"product_id":"ibsen-four-major-plays-vol-i","title":"Ibsen: Four Major Plays, Vol. I","description":"The translations, created through a fresh approach to the Norwegian original in tandem with a keen sense of Ibsen's theatricallity and playability, have all been tested and refined in productions at professional theaters.\nThe translators have paid particular attention to three aspects of Ibsen's technique: his wit and humor, his \"supertext\" - the web of rich allusions and references that he weaves in and around his dialogue - and the bold theatricallity of the plays. The result is an Ibsen that sounds contemporary without being slangy or colloquial - an Ibsen of strong ideas but also living characters - and surprisingly different from the image of the cold, forbidding \"scold of the North\" that we often associate with this giant writer.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1880399679\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1880399679.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ibsen, Henrik|Johnston, Brian|Davis, Rick\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43474769838141,"sku":"BVV.1880399679.VG","price":9.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/1880399679-0.jpg?v=1786741455","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/ibsen-four-major-plays-vol-i","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
