RESUMO

This work, composed of three volumes (I. Historiography; II. Selection of critical texts; and III. Bibliographical catalogue), presents an overview of the reception of Ibsen in Brazil. The first volume is an assessment of the rich and varied criticism Ibsen received in Brazil within the context of the theatrical ideas of the nineteenth century, the modernization of the theatre in the 1940s, until the contemporary level of critical trends. The second selects the most relevant texts in order to understand the works of the playwright, which were published in Brazil from 1985 and 2002. Finally, the third presents bibliographical information on Brazilian translations of his plays; on adaptations carried through in theatre and on TV; in books, book chapters, prefaces and texts published in periodicals about the playwright. Through this route, an attempt was made to understand the way Ibsenian theatre was assimilated by Brazilian critics, taking into account foreign influences, especially of French origin. At the same time, we attempt to highlight examples of breaking from such tradition, especially considering the thoughts of Antonio de Alcântara Machado, Otto Maria Carpeaux and Anatol Rosenfeld, who gave us another approach to the studies of Ibsens plays.
