Ghosts. E-book. Formato EPUB. &quot;Ghosts&quot; is a drama in three acts by Henrik Ibsen, published in 1881 in Norwegian as <i>Gengangere</i> and performed the following year. The play is an attack on conventional morality and on the results of hypocrisy.<br /><br />&quot;Ghosts&quot; tells the story of Helen Alving, a widow who is haunted by the many mistresses of her deceased husband and by her son who has inherited syphilis from his philandering father. &quot;Ghosts&quot; is a scathing indictment of Victorian society in which Ibsen refutes the notion that if one simply fulfills one&#39;s duty rather than following one&#39;s desires then a good and noble life will be achieved. Scandalous in its day for its frank discussion of venereal disease and marriage infidelity, &quot;Ghosts&quot; remains to this day an intense psychological drama and sharp social criticism.
