Henrik Ibsen's The Stuff Of Kings: A New Translation Of The Pretenders

Henrik Ibsen's The Stuff of Kings (previously known as The Pretenders) is a historical tragedy in the manner of Shakespeare and a work of such excellence that major Ibsen scholars have deservedly called it Ibsen's "first masterpiece." This new translation of the play has given it a new, more appropriate title and is the only translation of it into American English. In addition, the translator has included a major commentary on the play and various materials designed to encourage attempts to stage it. 9781492718086 1492718084 296 Drama NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=aCPnnQEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
