Kroll Monologue from Rosmersholm

From Rosmersholm by Henrik Ibsen

male · anguished · 46 sec

Rosmer, Rosmer, I shall never get over this. (Looks at him sadly.) To think that you, too, could bring yourself to sympathise with and join in the work of disorder and ruin that is playing havoc with our unhappy country. (Rosmer: It is the work of emancipation that I sympathise with.) Oh yes, I know all about that. That is what it is called, by both those who are leading the people astray and by their misguided victims. But, be sure of this--you need expect no emancipation to be the result of the spirit that relies on the poisoning of the whole of our social life.
