Abstract | ||
This study aims at analysing Churchill's The Hospital at the Time of the Revolution. It explores Child Abuse and the reasons behind family abuse to their children. Furthermore, the study investigates the issues that incited child abuse. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher makes use of “Urie Bronfenbrenner in the Bioecological Model of Human Development theory". The present study is significant because it is concerned with everyday activities due to which children are subjected to parental abuse, in other words, the emotionally painful events that cause psychological, physical, and sexual disturbances in children. The current study builds a clear image of child abuse in Caryl Churchill's selected play. | ||
