The League of Youth is a pretty lighthearted, but somewhat snarky comedy written by Henrik Ibsen in 1869. The play relates the rise and fall of the young attorney Stensgaard, who has political ambitions, and falls heavily on his nose because he constantly listens to the wrong people. The satire concerns the fact that any political ambition had to connect to property, and hence, Stensgaard is set on marrying the daughter of a wealthy landowner. If only.The problem is, there are two of them: The chamberlain Bratsberg, who owns the iron mines, and the property and forest magnate Monsen. The two are at odds because of their wealth, rivaling on who should run the local politics. Both also have daughters, and Stensgaard tries to propose to both of them. Unfortunately, economics make the possibility of bankruptcy for both of them, and Stensgaard is uncertain because the girls can lose their income. And he will then lose his possible place in parliament. Finally, he ends up a bachelor, when the girls marry other men.Stensgaard is also lured into some stupid decisions by the older and more experienced MP Lundestad, a shrewd farmer. He also gets tricked by the master manipulator Heire, who schemes against all the others. In the end, Stensgaard is run out of town, and status quo is preserved. propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }); Tropes:
