جان گابریل بورکمن by Henrik Ibsen

tuvakon's review

4.0

Dette er noe av det mer melankolske, triste og dystre jeg har lest av Ibsen. Var til tider også ganske spennende. Likte karakterene og deres personligheter/historier godt. Som jeg har sagt tidligere, i forhold til mange andre bøker er dette fem stjerner, men i sammenlignet med mange av Ibsen andre verker blir dette fire stjerner for meg. Veldig bra, men ikke helt på høye med favorittene.

Vielleicht sind die großen/bekannten Dramen Ibsens mit Abstand doch die besseren.
Großartige Dialoge, schlimme Geheimnisse, bewegte Vergangenheiten, aber das zynisch-verbitterte kommt in anderen Dramen besser zur Geltung, wirkt sprachlich noch etwas pointierter.
Bekannte Themen und Figuren - die Ibsen-Checkliste kann man hier bereithalten und abhaken, aber überraschen wird eine:n womöglich nichts.

Spennende historie som, i likhet med Ibsens drama flest, åpner opp for flere tema: relasjoner, selvrespekt, status, makt, oppvekst, omsorg, forventninger, generasjonskløft, frihet og kjærlighet. Disse framstår allmenne på tvers av tid og livssituasjon, rett og slett grunnleggende menneskelige. Dramaet er mer psykologisk enn de mer kjente realismedramaene til Ibsen. Replikkene er likevel ikke jevnt over så treffende, velformulerte eller dyptpløyende som i andre av hans drama.
