Abstract
There are a great number of dramatic critics who claim that all the most important dramatic work that is being done in the world or has been done in the last quarter of a century, bears the unmistakable impress of Ibsen's influence. The poetic change that Wordsworth and Coleridge inaugurated in 1798, was nothing they say, compared with the revolution in dramatic art that began when Ibsen produced his "Pillars of Society," the first of his purely sociological plays.
