Ibsen Studies is the only international journal devoted to Henrik Ibsen, and is therefore a central publication both for Ibsen researchers the world over and for those with a more general interest in the author and his life’s work.

Ibsen Studies is a forum for debate and critique for all those who work within the extensive field of research into the work of Henrik Ibsen. The journal is cross-disciplinary in nature, with contributions from literary researchers, historians and those involved in theatre. The journal also includes reviews of current Ibsen-related literature, and a separate section for Ibsen-related events.
