Opera teatrale drammaturgica del 1909 di August Strindberg, scrittore, drammaturgo e bibliotecario nato a Stoccolma nel 1849. Molto peso sulla sua psicologia ebbe la diseguaglianza sociale dei genitori. La madre era una ca meriera, sposatasi tardi con un piccolo borghese. Nel 1867 si iscrisse all'università di Uppsala, frequentando irregolarmente i corsi di filologia e medicina. In seguito trovò occupazione come maestro elementare, precettore, telegrafista in un'isola remota del nord. La vita di Strindberg fu tumultuosa, tessuta di esperienze complesse e scelte radicali e contraddittorie. Fu bibliotecario reale nella Biblioteca reale (Kungliga Biblioteket) fino al 1882
