yeahhh the first time this writer (not a doctor, don't even play one on TV) dived into Harrison's was to verify clinical reporting by early-19th century fiction writer (N. A. Durova/A. A. Alexandrov) and yeah, she was on the mark. Ibsen's *Ghosts* (later same century, banned repeatedly): same.

Ibsen's Master Builder falls to his death from the steeple atop the house he has built for himself, so not a good omen, kind of like the wild ducks in the first episode of The Sopranos. On the other hand, maybe "master builder" is autocorrect for "masturbator."

On mythology and folklore in "Peer Gynt"
That’s What You Gynt
I thought I might take a look at some of the folklore and mythology in Peer Gynt, especially since I've been thinking about trolls recently. I remember seeing an abridged version of Henrik Ibsen's play in college, and the trolls and the Button-Moulder stuck with me. I read the script online, although that isn't usually the best way to fully absorb plays. It jumps around a lot, with Peter traveling all around the world and encountering both realistic and fantastic situations. I've seen Goethe's Faust cited as similar in some ways, and they have the same feel of the characters moving around without a lot of reason and without it affecting them much.

Trolleybus, not trams, is the answer to city transport trauma - Bruce Whitehead
Ibsen’s curse also struck Edinburgh council’s tunnel-visioned transport committee, which has rejected proposals for an essential tram link to Granton.

I still have the scars from the one time I didn't, in fact genuinely could not, learn my lines for a school drama soc play. In my defense it was Ibsen's An Enemy Of The People, and I was the lead, with about 40% of the bloody awful dialogue.
