Henrik Ibsen was a Norwegian playwright and poet, widely regarded as the father of modern drama. His plays, including "A Doll's House" and "Hedda Gabler," are known for their critical examination of societal norms and the human condition, often addressing controversial issues such as women's rights and individual freedom. Ibsen's innovative approach to realism and his exploration of psychological conflicts had a profound influence on the development of modern theater.
