Overview

This volume contains two plays by August Strindberg: ""Kronbruden"" (The Crown Bride) and ""Drömspelet"" (A Dream Play). ""Kronbruden"", also known as Svanehvit (Swanwhite), is a fairy tale drama filled with symbolism and allegorical characters, exploring themes of innocence, love, and redemption. ""Drömspelet"" is one of Strindberg's most innovative and influential works, a surreal and fragmented drama that prefigures expressionism and the Theatre of the Absurd. In it, the Daughter of Indra descends to Earth to understand humanity's suffering. The play abandons traditional dramatic structure, following the logic of a dream where time and space are fluid. These plays showcase Strindberg's versatility and his profound impact on modern drama.
