Lady Inger of Ostrat: Henrik Ibsen's Prose Dramas Vol III
Produced by Douglas Levy
"Lady Inger of Ostrat" by Henrik Ibsen is a prose drama written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around Lady Inger Gyldenlove, a strong-willed widow grappling with the political tensions in Norway during the Danish rule. The drama unfolds primarily at Ostrat Manor, where various characters, including her daughter Elina and Dutch knight Nils Lykke, navigate themes of betrayal, loyalty, and national identity amidst the backdrop of rebellion. At the start of the play, the setting is established in the stormy environment of Ostrat Manor, where characters engage in conversations filled with lore and tension surrounding the Danish conquest. Through their dialogues, we learn of Lady Inger's heavy burden as she is torn between her responsibilities and desires for freedom amidst growing unrest among the Norwegian peasants. When news of an impending uprising reaches her, the conflicting ambitions of the characters come to light—some seek vengeance, others resolution. Elina begins to question her mother's choices, while a guest—a mysterious knight—arrives, setting the stage for pivotal encounters that may change the fate of Norway. As the dynamics deepen, the essence of identity and sacrifice emerges, hinting at Lady Inger's complex role as both a mother and a national figure. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
