| Summary | "Gespenster: Ein Familiendrama in drei Aufzügen" by Henrik Ibsen is a play written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the complex dynamics of a family, particularly focusing on the widow Helene Alving and her son Oswald, as well as their interactions with Pastor Manders and Engstrand. The themes of hidden truths, societal pressures, and the burden of the past are likely to unfold throughout the narrative. At the start of the play, we are introduced to several characters in a garden room on Helene Alving's estate in Norway. Engstrand, a carpenter, seeks to speak with his daughter Regine, who is growing increasingly resistant to his advances. Their strained relationship hints at dark family secrets, while Regine’s contempt for her father's intentions establishes an undertone of tension. As the scene progresses, the arrival of Pastor Manders and discussions about Oswald, who has just returned home, add layers to the family's internal struggles, foreshadowing deeper themes about the impact of the past on the present. The characters' dialogues reveal their differing ambitions and underlying conflicts, setting the stage for a confrontation with their shared history and societal expectations.
