Ghosts

Henrik Ibsen(1828-1906) was a Norwegian playwright known as the father of modern drama, celebrated for exposing social hypocrisy and exploring inner conflicts in his works. He began with elements of romanticism but gradually shifted toward realism and symbolism, delving deeply into human existence and societal issues. His major plays such as A Doll’s House, Ghosts, An Enemy of the People, and The Wild Duck stirred great controversy in their time. His dramas emphasize themes of individual freedom, responsibility, and the struggle for truth, remaining widely performed across the world today. Ibsen is regarded as a revolutionary figure who transformed the form and substance of theater, leaving a profound legacy in both literature and drama.
