Excerpt from Brand: A Dramatic Poem, Translated Into English Verse; Rhymed and in the Original Metre Yet Brand is comparatively little known to readers of English and certainly by no means so well known to them or so well appreciated by them, as many others of Ibsen's plays, as, for instance, The Doll's House, Ghosts, The Master Builder, or even the great companion dramaticpoem, Peer Gynt. This, notwithstanding that in the original its appeal is more profound and keener than that of any one of them The explanation must be - and is -that the language of the poetry in Brand in Ibsen's own tongue has the magic which, for instance, sets forth the psalms of David in the King James' Version - that illumination of diction which alone, by its very limpidity, makes it possible to see and feel great truths - that simplicity and directness which make the sublimest ideas the common property of all men.
