by Henrik Ibsen
'Espectros (Gengangere)' Summary
Elena Alving, viuda de un hombre que fue considerado un pilar moral de la comunidad, decide inaugurar un orfanato en honor a su memoria. Su hijo, Osvald, regresa a casa desde París, y Elena se ve obligada a confesarle la verdad sobre su padre: un hombre que llevó una vida llena de secretos, incluido un romance extramatrimonial que tuvo consecuencias devastadoras para Elena y su familia. A medida que se revelan las verdades ocultas del pasado, la familia se encuentra atrapada en una telaraña de culpa, secretos y reproches. La llegada de un viejo amigo de la familia, Pastor Manders, contribuye a la tensión y a la creciente conciencia de que el pasado tiene una sombra alargada que afecta el presente. Osvald revela que padece una enfermedad hereditaria que le condena a un destino trágico. Elena, abrumada por el peso de la verdad y la amenaza de perder a su hijo, debe enfrentarse a las consecuencias de sus acciones y a la dura realidad de una sociedad que tolera la hipocresía y la moralidad superficial. "Espectros" explora la fragilidad de la moral social y las profundas consecuencias de ocultar la verdad, tanto individual como colectiva. La obra culmina en un clímax emotivo que cuestiona la capacidad de la familia para afrontar el pasado y la responsabilidad individual ante las tradiciones y las convenciones sociales.Book Details
