Review: A must read for lovers of works for the stage - A must read for lovers of works for the stage. Socially aware works and still relevant today Review: Masterpieces, in fine translations; and a note to Oxford - Four of Ibsen's greatest plays, taken from what is, in my opinion the best edition of Ibsen that we have had in our language, the Oxford Ibsen of James McFarlane et al. However, for this paperback reissue, some of the valuable appendices were removed. This is a shame but utterly justifiable. It does create a slight impression of incompetence, however, when, on p. 88, I read 'For an insight [...etc...] see his letters to a Copenhagen newspaper [...] (translated below, pp. 454–56)' and find that this book only has 355 pages. Regardless, four masterpieces in elegant and idiomatic translations, which make for intense literary pleasure; and the plays can be enjoyed perfectly well without the extra letters, &c. However, Oxford University Press, if you are reading this, it is virtually impossible for a young Ibsen-enthusiast to get hold of the Oxford Ibsen (or any complete Ibsen in English, for that matter) nowadays; so, perhaps the time has come to reissue all of his plays—perhaps more cost-effectively, in paperback (with appendices, preferably). ## Features - Oxford University Press, USA ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 152,620 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 298 in Drama & Dramatists 620 in English Language Study for Young Adults | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 398 Reviews | ## Images ![Four Major Plays (Doll's House; Ghosts; Hedda Gabler; and The Master Builder) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91ztEsqIlRL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read for lovers of works for the stage *by W***R on 21 May 2026* A must read for lovers of works for the stage.
