Ibsens Schauspiel »Hedda Gabler« (1890) ist ein Drama der Mentalitätsgeschichte des ausgehenden 19. Jahrhunderts. Die zentralen Themen des Stückes – Heddas Langeweile und ihr Ästhetizismus sowie Tesmans historische Sammelleidenschaft – machen es gleichweise zu einer Anatomie des bürgerlichen Bewusstseins der Dekadenz-Epoche wie zu einer kritischen Replik auf den vorherrschenden Geist der zeitgenössischen Wissenschaft.
