Notes.

The article presents information on new publication as of July 28,1898. The recent Ibsen festival found a twofold literary expression in Scandinavia in a book by Georg Brandes, and a "Festskrift" published by the Norwegian monthly "Samtiden." The first is divided into three parts, giving the impressions of the critic at three different periods of his life 1867, 1582, and the present time respectively. The second work contains criticisms by representatives of three Scandinavian kingdoms, and Finland, an article by Joh Storm on Ibsen and the Norse language, and statistics showing the popularity of Ibsen at home and abroad. Brandes' book has as a frontispiece the latest photograph of the Norwegian dramatist, taken this year.
