The Centre for Ibsen Studies was begun in 1992 at the University of Oslo, largely to serve as a place for scholars and students to gain access (and work on) projects related to Henrik Ibsen, one of the most celebrated playwrights of modern drama. The site contains a good deal of basic information about the activities of the Centre, along with upcoming conferences dealing with Ibsen, and forthcoming and recently released publications originating from the Centre. The site offers a searchable Ibsen bibliography, and access to manuscripts and papers written by Ibsen himself (all of which are, understandably, in Norwegian). Persons interested in finding out more about Ibsen should head to the Ibsen links area, which contains a fine selection of thematically organized links to online materials, including electronic texts, exhibitions, concordances, and critical essays and commentaries. Overall, this site is a good introduction to the breadth and scope of Ibsen's works, and the worthwhile agenda of the Ibsen Centre in Oslo.
