An Enemy of the People is a play written by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen in 1882. The story revolves around Dr. Thomas Stockmann, a respected and idealistic scientist who discovers that the town's main attraction, the baths, are contaminated and pose a serious health risk to the citizens. Despite his efforts to alert the authorities and the public about the danger, he is met with hostility and opposition from the town's officials, the media, and even his own family. As the conflict escalates, Stockmann becomes increasingly isolated and vilified by the community, ultimately leading to a dramatic and tragic conclusion. The play explores themes of truth, individualism, democracy, and the power dynamics of society. It is considered one of Ibsen's most influential works and a classic of modern drama.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.
