The Wild Duck (1884), originally titled Vildanden in Norwegian, is widely regarded as Henrik Ibsens masterpiece, showcasing his unparalleled complexity in storytelling. The play follows Gregers Werle, a young man who returns to his hometown after years away, reuniting with his childhood friend, Hjalmar Ekdal. As the narrative unfolds, Gregers uncovers the hidden truths lurking beneath the surface of the Ekdal familys seemingly happy life. He becomes obsessed with revealing these secrets—truths that include his fathers scandalous past, a wrongful conviction of another man due to his fathers actions, and Hjalmars futile pursuit of an imaginary invention while his wife, Gina, supports the family. Ibsens skillful use of irony reveals that despite Gregers relentless quest for the absolute truth, he often communicates through insinuation rather than clarity. As the climax approaches, Hjalmar learns that Ginas daughter, Hedvig, is not his biological child, leading to devastating consequences. In a tragic twist, Hedvig chooses to prove her love for Gregers by sacrificing her beloved wild duck, choosing self-sacrifice over the harsh truths he represents. Ibsen poignantly illustrates that sometimes, the burden of truth is too heavy for the human heart to endure. (Summary by Wikipedia)Copyright Short Stories アート 戯曲・演劇 文学史・文学批評
