Robins, Elizabeth
View through CrossRef
Known to theater historians and critics as an actress and theater‐manager who was a standard‐bearer for the works of Ibsen in England, Elizabeth Robins (1862–1952) was also a translator, novelist, essayist, playwright, and suffragette. While theater and women's rights are central keynotes to understanding Robins, her work, in many ways, crossed boundaries as she moved between nations, translated from one language to another, worked in multiple genres and adapted fiction for the stage, and forged collaborative relationships. Although Robins has been an important figure for theater historians and feminist literary critics, her work is notable for challenging the limits of genre and gender.
