The Annual Ibsen Lecture, streamed on December 2

Published 30 November 2021

Professors Tore Rem (University of Oslo) and Narve Fulsås (UiT – The Arctic University of Norway) will revisit their work on “the Ibsen phenomenon” and its consequences for the rise of modern drama. The lecture will be streamed between 6:00 PM–8:00 PM, Dec. 2.

The Centre for Ibsen Studies at the University of Oslo is pleased to invite all interested parties to the 2021 edition of the Annual Ibsen Lecture.

In this lecture Tore Rem (University of Oslo) and Narve Fulsås (UiT – The Arctic University of Norway) will revisit their work on Ibsen.

They will ask how the Ibsen phenomenon was possible and suggest that certain resources of the periphery helped make Ibsen “the Father of Modern Drama”.

Fulsås and Rem will also reflect on what this year’s publication, Ibsen in Context (Cambridge University Press), contributes to the field, and on what it says about the current state of Ibsen scholarship.
