Autorenporträt
Henrik Ibsen (20 March 1828 - 23 May 1906) was a Norwegian playwright and theatre director. As one of the founders of modernism in theatre, Ibsen is often referred to as "the father of realism" and one of the most influential playwrights of his time. He is the most frequently performed dramatist in the world after Shakespeare, and was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1902, 1903, and 1904. Ibsen spent several years employed at Det norske Theater, where he was involved in the production of more than 145 plays as a writer, director, and producer. During this period, he published five new, though largely unremarkable, plays. In 1858, Ibsen became the creative director of the Christiania Theatre. He married Suzannah Thoresen later that year, but the couple lived in poor financial circumstances and Ibsen became very disenchanted with life. Ibsen left Christiania and went to Sorrento in Italy in self-imposed exile. He didn't return to his native land for the next 27 years, and when he returned, it was as a noted, but controversial, playwright.
