An Enemy of the People is a play written by Henrik Ibsen that was first published in 1882. The story takes place in a small Norwegian town where Dr. Thomas Stockmann discovers that the local baths, which are the town's main source of income, are contaminated. Despite his efforts to alert the town officials and the public, he is met with resistance and opposition from those who stand to lose financially. The play explores themes of truth, individualism, and the power of the majority. It is a powerful commentary on the dangers of mob mentality and the importance of standing up for one's beliefs, even in the face of opposition. An Enemy of the People is a classic work of literature that continues to be relevant today.Hovstad. I am of humble origin, as you know; and that has given me opportunities of knowing what is the most crying need in the humbler ranks of life. It is that they should be allowed some part in the direction of public affairs, Doctor. That is what will develop their faculties and intelligence and self respect.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
