A VERY wcl-known writer
N in commenting upon the
~ present vogue of Henrik
Ibsen. declared recently,
"Ibsen owes more to the wom-
en- of the stage than any other writer"
a moments reflection brings forth the
truth of the statement. There is no
record, either in this country or in
Europe of the male star who has sue
ceeded in populariZing an Ibsen play.
On the other hand there are scores of
actresses who have won success in
Ibsen roles, and it Is 10 stars like
Na2imova, Mrs. Flske, Mrs. Patrick
Campbell Duse and Agnes Sorma that
the Norwegian poet owes to large
degree his present popularity in
America, England, Italy and Germany.
The explanation of this is quite
simple. Ibsen writes of women. about
women, for women. He has made the
character of womankind his especial
study. ergo his best character-draw-
ings are of that sex Peer Gynt.
and Richard Mansfield might be cited
us exceptions to this rule, but even
Manstield's greatest admirers Will not
assert that he ever succeeded in
populnrizing the Norwegian writer's
works, or that his masterly Interpreters
