Pillars of Society is a play written by Henrik Ibsen, a Norwegian playwright, and first performed in 1877. The play is set in a small Norwegian town and revolves around the story of Karsten Bernick, a wealthy businessman and pillar of the community. Bernick has a dark secret from his past that threatens to destroy his reputation and the lives of those around him.As the play progresses, the audience is introduced to a cast of characters, including Bernick's wife, her brother, and a childhood friend of Bernick's who returns to the town after many years. The play explores themes of morality, social responsibility, and the consequences of hiding the truth.Through the characters' interactions and dialogue, the play exposes the hypocrisy and corruption that exist beneath the surface of a seemingly perfect society. The play's title, Pillars of Society, refers to the idea that the people who are seen as the most respectable and virtuous in a community often have the most to hide.Ibsen's play was considered controversial when it was first performed due to its critique of Norwegian society and its portrayal of women as strong and independent. However, it has since become a classic of modern drama and is still widely performed today.There! I have given it him in earnest now; I don't think he will forget that thrashing! What do you say?--And I say that you are an injudicious mother! You make excuses for him, and countenance any sort of rascality on his part--Not rascality? What do you call it, then? Slipping out of the house at night, going out in a fishing boat, staying away till well on in the day, and giving me such a horrible fright when I have so much to worry me!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
