section Summary
 
 
The concept of family t presently, as the world has grown smaller, children no longer have and loyalty to family has been a virtue in nearly all times and cultures of this world. Albeithe need to embrace their parents as they once did. Yet in Ibesn’s play Ghosts, the parent-child relationship is one of the story’s main struggles. It is this very struggle that leads to one of the play’s overall themes- one of lying and deceit even to one’s family. And the battle of love and hate is apparent in both the relationships of Engstrand and Regina and with Oswald and his mother Mrs. Alving. In all Acts we can see clear cut examples and underlying motivations of why all of these characters struggle to love one another.
