Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 May 2006
The single most comprehensive reference work for the English-speaking student of Ibsen's plays is the eight-volume The Oxford Ibsen (1960-77). Edited by James McFarlane, the set comprises translations by McFarlane and others of all of Ibsen's plays, based on the Norwegian texts in the standard edition: Henrik Ibsen, Samlede Verker, Hundreårsutgave, Oslo, 1928-57 (Henrik Ibsen, Collected Works, Centenary Edition), and includes translations of extant drafts, fragments and the 'Epic Brand'. As well, each volume begins with a lengthy, authoritative critical essay by McFarlane, situating its plays in Ibsen's life and times and setting out significant lines of interpretive inquiry. Each volume concludes with appendices and a selected bibliography. The appendices include for each of the plays in that volume: discussions of dates of composition; draft manuscripts; some relevant comments by Ibsen and his contemporaries; and contemporary reception of book sales and play productions.
