Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Henrik Ibsen a Critical Study, Vol. 5
I have read no critical books for this study, save Mr. Archer's invaluable introductions, Dr. Brandes' three essays. And Mr. Wicksteed's four lectures; I have purposely avoided consulting books that had at all the same purpose as this. I must here, however, acknowledge that I have been anticipated in one of my principal criticisms on the Ibsenite school by Sir A. Quiller Couch, who in an essay on Peer Gynt insists far more ably than I on Ibsen's essential belief in self-sacrifice. I had not read Sir Arthur quiller-couch's essay when I first wrote what I felt about Ibsen's View of salvation by love; but I am proud to find myself in agreement with so sane and acute a critic. The essay is to be found in the volume entitled Adventures in Criticism. R. E. R.
