Set against the rugged coastline of Helgeland during the era of Erik the Blood, this play explores themes of honor and love through the character of Hjdoris, inspired by Ibsen's own fiancé. As a larger-than-life figure, Hjdoris grapples with her loyalty, loving one man while marrying another. Written in 1857, Ibsen's work reflects the scandalous nature of realistic drama during the Victorian era, marking a significant contribution to modern theater.
