Abstract
Presentation on the occasion of the public domain status of Ibsen and the Actress by Elizabeth Robins. Read by Joanne E. Gates.
This 1928 essay, delivered as part of the British Drama League's honoring of the centennial of Ibsen's birth and then published by the Hogarth Press, was a significant landmark for Robins. As of 1924, it has entered the public domain. A subsection of the Elizabeth Robins Web at JSU is devoted to re-publishing the text with related bibliography and annotations. This audio recording is designed in mp4 format so that the text is visible alongside the recording.
This format captures page images from the HathiTrust Public Domain as a more accurate way to produce captioned text.
