Summary "The Collected Works of Henrik Ibsen, Vol. 06 (of 11)" by Henrik Ibsen is a collection of plays, specifically including "The League of Youth" and "Pillars of Society," written in the late 19th century. This volume highlights Ibsen's critical examination of social issues, relationships, and the dynamics within society, featuring characters seeking ambition and personal growth, often in the face of societal limitations. The beginning of this volume starts with an introduction detailing Ibsen's creative process while writing "The League of Youth." It depicts a celebratory fête surrounding Norway's Independence Day, where the ambitious Stensgård takes center stage, rallying the crowd and calling for change against the established order characterized by the Chamberlain and other authority figures. The actors at the fête are introduced, revealing their various perspectives on political and social dynamics, with themes of youth, ambition, and social reform emerging prominently from the dialogue set amidst lively discussions and political aspirations.
