Plechanov schreibt : "Ibsen's view and ideals were developed in a country which had no revolutionary proletariat, and where the backward masses could not become the vanguard of the progressive ideal. That is why every forward step of necessity seemed to Ibsen to be a movement of the 'minority', that is, of a small group of thinking individuals. It was quite different in countries of developed capitalist condition. There every progressive movement obviously had to be a movement of the exploited majority, or rather, it had to attempt to be that. Ibsen's bitter, sincere attacks against the 'majority' were greeted with applause by inumerable people who believed this majority to be the proletariat fighting for its emancipation. Ibsen attacked that 'majority' which was alien to all progressive strivings, but he received the approbation of thouse people who feared the progressive strivings of the 'majority'."
