In this book, Dr. Ekman examines Strindberg's four plays of 1907: Thunder in the Air, The Burned Site, The Ghost Sonata, and The Pelican, the works which have gained most resonance internationally. For the first time, these works are studied in relation to Strindberg's lifelong obsession with the five senses and their function in stage plays, both symbolic and dramatic. The fact that impressions from a stage can only be seen and heard led Strindberg to disregard the senses in favour of the insights of wisdom and inner vision; and it is from this position that the Chamber Plays were written. Examined from this perspective, much that seems obscure in these plays and their new style of drama is revealed in an original and clarifying light.
