Henrik Ibsen - A Brief Timeline

From Ibsen by Michael Meyer, Penguin Books 1967 :

"At noon on 22 May he opened his eyes, pressed Dr Bull's hand and murmered: 'Thank God!' A little later the nurse said to others in the room that he seemed to be a little better. From the bed came a single word: 'Tvertimod!' ('On the contrary!'). It was the last word Ibsen ever spoke."
