Aufführung von Peer Gynt von Henrik Ibsen durch die Zhong yang xi ju xue yuan (Cantral Academy of Drama) in Beijing in der Übersetzung von Xiao Qian unter der Regie von Xu Xiaozhong. Xu Xiaozhong learned that there was 'another Ibsen' who was unfamiliar to most of the Chinese. The allegorical theme and the spectacular stage effects of the play presented an entirely new Ibsen to China. For fear that the Chinese audience was unable to comprehend such a Western mythological figure, the directors decided to present it in the image of the Chinese legendary animal god Pigsy (Xi you ji). The marriage horse in the original was turned into a traditional Chinese dancing lion |

Xu, Xiaozhong. Zai xian Yibusheng : dao yan Pei'er Jinte de si kao [IDD26257]. Xu schreibt : "In Peer Gynt, the writer raises sharply the problem of morality. But his answer regarding the solution of this problem is essentially based on idealism and the bourgeois humanism because Ibsen thinks that 'with, love and faith' can save a degraded soul and solve the problem of morality. Peer pursues his effort in finding out who he is and the real significance of being a man, blindly and stubbornly. With this will and hope, he has been from his homeland to overseas, from paradise to hell, and from living a man's life to that of trolls. Throughout his life he can neither have the heart to destroy nor live life anew. He has always been walking around in front of difficulties. Such an action of Peer is the unifying force among the inserted conflicts, dispersed opponents and incoherent stories." |
