Ibsen was born into a wealthy family in Norway in 1828. His father was a pastor and his mother was a highly regarded intellectual. As a child, Ibsen was very well-read and had a wide-ranging knowledge of literature and philosophy. When he was 12 years old, he read the autobiography of the French Revolution and became fascinated by the idea of a revolution.
As a young adult, Ibsen became a follower of a popular movement called ‘Hegelianism’, which taught that there were superior and inferior races and moral truths for which reason was no longer enough.
