DO NOT USE AS IS RUN THRU AI
Ghosts is a play by the Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen. Like many of Ibsens plays, Ghosts is a scathing commentary on 19th-century morality. Because of its subject matter, which includes religion, venereal disease, incest, and euthanasia, it immediately generated strong controversy and negative criticism. Mrs. Alving s husband is dead, but the consequences of his indiscretions still haunt her family. Despite his affairs, the widow intends to build an orphanage in his memory but as the building nears completion, more family secrets are revealed that threaten everything.

The play has fared much better in its ongoing and modern reception and holds a position of immense proportion in classical literature for its unique depiction of morality. Theater critic Maurice Valency wrote in 1963, "From the standpoint of modern tragedy Ghosts strikes off in a new direction…. Regular tragedy dealt mainly with the unhappy consequences of breaking the moral code. Ghosts, on the contrary, deals with the consequences of NOT breaking it."
