The Making of a Dramatist 1828-1864; The Farewell to Poetry 1864-1882; The Top of A Cold Mountain 1883-1906. Michael Meyer’s definitive three-volume biography of Henrik Ibsen presents a commanding study of the playwright’s life, intellectual evolution, and artistic legacy. It chronicles Ibsen’s transformation from provincial poet to international dramatist, detailing his early struggles, ideological shifts, and the psychological depth that shaped his mature works. Meyer argues with precision that Ibsen’s rejection of romanticism and embrace of realism redefined modern theatre, positioning him as a moral provocateur and social critic.
