# La lega dei giovani

By Henrik Ibsen.

"La lega dei giovani" by Henrik Ibsen is a play finished in early 1869. Stensgaard, a charismatic political opportunist, forms the League of Youth and promises to sweep away corruption from the old guard. But his ambitions entangle him in layers of social and romantic scheming that grow increasingly complex. Written in colloquial prose rather than verse, this witty comedy marked a turning point toward realism in Ibsen's work. Its debut performance drew applause, but the second sparked such controversy that fighting erupted in the theater and spilled into the streets. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
