Brand A Dramatic Poem
by Henrik Ibsen
In 1909 I wrote, at Mrs. Garrets request, the following note for Mr. E. T. Cooks Memoir of Edmund Garret: Garrets translation of Brand is, so far as the noblest and most vital portions of that great drama are concerned, a truly inspired piece of work. The pity and terror of the poem had entered into him and were part and parcel of his whole sense of human life." Philip H. WicksteedIbsen's early poetic drama, composed in 1865, in which a priest is driven by faith to risk and witness the deaths of his wife and child. Brand was Ibsens first masterpiece, published to tremendous critical and popular acclaim. Translated from the Norwegian by Fydell Edmund Garrett, with an introduction by Philip H. Wicksteed.

Henrik Ibsen was a major 19th-century Norwegian playwright, theatre director, and poet. He is often referred to as "the god father" of modern drama and is one of the founders of Modernism in the theatre.[1] His plays were considered scandalous to many of his era, when Victorian values of family life and propriety largely held sway in Europe. Ibsen's work examined the realities that lay behind many facades, possessing a revelatory nature that was disquieting to many contemporaries. It utilized a critical eye and free inquiry into the conditions of life and issues of morality. Ibsen is often ranked as one of the truly great playwrights in the European tradition, alongside Shakespeare. <cite>— [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henrik_Ibsen)</cite>
