Spettri: dramma in tre atti by Henrik Ibsen

"Spettri: dramma in tre atti" by Henrik Ibsen is a play written in 1881. A widow prepares to dedicate an orphanage honoring her late husband, whose hidden transgressions she concealed to protect their son. As the dedication approaches, devastating revelations emerge about inherited disease, forbidden love, and a shocking family secret. When fire destroys the orphanage, Mrs. Alving faces an impossible moral choice that tests the limits of maternal devotion. Ibsen's controversial drama challenged 19th-century morality by exploring the consequences of upholding society's codes. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
