Rosmersholm: Schauspiel in vier Aufzügen

by Henrik Ibsen

Translated by Wilhelm Lange

"Rosmersholm: Schauspiel in vier Aufzügen" by Henrik Ibsen is a play written in 1886. It follows Johannes Rosmer, a former clergyman haunted by his wife's suicide, and Rebecca West, his strong-willed companion, as they navigate guilt, forbidden love, and political idealism. When Rosmer announces support for revolutionary reform, his brother-in-law turns against him, exposing secrets that unravel their lives. Dark and psychologically complex, the play explores morality, personal freedom, and the inescapable weight of the past in a world collapsing around them.
