This volume contains two of Ibsen's significant plays: "An Enemy of the People" and "The Wild Duck". The works prominently explore themes of truth, morality, and the impact of societal expectations on individual lives, incorporating complex characters such as the idealistic Dr. Thomas Stockmann, who finds himself at odds with his community. The opening of "An Enemy of the People" introduces Dr. Stockmann, a passionate medical officer who has made a shocking discovery about the town's baths—an important source of economic prosperity—that they are dangerously contaminated. As he eagerly prepares to reveal his findings, the dynamics of power and public opinion come into play when his brother, the Burgomaster, suggests suppressing the information to protect the town's interests. This conflict between truth and social responsibility sets the stage for a nuanced exploration of the societal implications of his discovery, hinting at the struggles Dr. Stockmann will face as he chooses to uphold his moral integrity against overwhelming opposition.
