Ibsen's+backround+and+what+inspired+him+to+write+these+two+plays

Ibsen's backround is interesting and where he got the inspiration to write such dramas is even more so. [|Ibsen] was born on March 20, 1828 and died 78 years later on May 23, 1906. At the age of fifteen Ibsen was forced to drop out of school and begin to become an apprentice to become a pharmacist, but it was at this time he began writing plays. Ibsen's Child hood can be seen through the plays where I believe the inspiration of such characters as Hedda Gabler and Nora Helmer come from his parents. After Henrik was born, His parents lost large amounts of money. His father went into severe depression, and his mother took in religion to seek guidance through a troubled time. Ibsen wrote "A Doll's House" when he moved to Munich in 1875, he then published this play in 1879. He described the play as what he observed life to be like for the time period. Ibsen then wrote "Hedda Gabler" nearing the conclusion on his Career in 1890. These were by far his two most popular plays, but he says the one play that was the corner stone of his career was the "Emperor and Galilean"
