Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Didactics - English - Discussion and Essays, grade: 73, University of Strathclyde, course: English Literature, language: English, abstract: At the turn of the 20th century, a crisis in Enlightenment humanism had began to emerge; from the ashes of a dying romantic era, a cultural revolution known as the modernist movement arose as 'a progressive force promising to liberate humankind from ignorance and irrationality' (Taket and White, p. 869). Weary from the weak, unchanging patterns of Victorian writing, a collection of writers sought to break away from pre-existing 'dead-end' methods of creating literature by exploring new styles which were expressed in their prose and poetic works. Placing a greater emphasis upon experimentation, modernist writers took a great interest in purposely disorientating their readership with fragmentation and elements of the absurd. A conscious experimentation with language to express both its powers and limitations became apparent components in a vast body of modern literature. Whilst the previous era embodied a strong connection to nature in the belief this relationship was crucial for man's development as an individual, modern writers displayed little interest towards the natural world. Instead, an established vein of modern thought developed that progress as an individual was dependent upon directing the eye inward.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Didactics - English - Literature, Works, grade: 1,7, University of Hildesheim (Institut für englische Sprache und Literatur), course: Literature - From Modernism to Postmodernism, language: English, abstract: In this essay care is taken specifically to the role and the criticism of Christianity. Since many studies came to the conclusion that the piece deals mainly with the topic of Christianity, with large influxes of philosophy and existential questions, a broad range of theories and conjectures has developed in this regard. In the course of this work I will first give a general overview of the most important references and criticisms of Christianity, oriented to the text, will then have a closer look at the role of Pozzo and Lucky and will present my conclusion at the end. The play 'Waiting for Godot' premiered 1953 and was written by the Irish novelist Samuel Beckett. It is divided into two acts and the main characters, two old men called Vladimir and Estragon, wait on a lonely country road for a man called Mr. Godot. While waiting they are talking, one could say speculate, about that person, contemplate suicide several times, talk about religion and meet several characters but neither of these is Mr. Godot. This was just a very simple representation of events, another response of what happens might be 'it depends what you mean by 'happen''. In the fifty years since the plays publication many authors have tried to determine the meaning of this play. It seems like there is no specific meaning behind the text and that a new meaning is created each time the text is read. Therefor the text invites the reader to search for an interpretation, a meaning, a sense or message, even though it is not immediately visible. One thus has to accept that there is no right or wrong, only an assumption. With this knowledge it is possible to examine the text at various levels, such as political, religious, biographical, psychoanalytical or even existential.

Red Hardback. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. First Edition. 2008. First Edition. viii, 115pp. From the series of Continuum Modern Theatre Guides. Waiting for Godot "is not only an indisputably important and influential dramatic text -it is also one of the most significant western cultural landmarks of the twentieth century. Originally written in French, the play first amazed and appalled Parisian theatre-goers and critics before receiving a harshly dismissive initial critical response in Britain in 1955. Its influence since then on the international stage has been significant, impacting on generations of actors, directors and audiences." New copy with no inscriptions.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2001 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, University of Regensburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Proseminar: From Modernism to Postmodernism, language: English, abstract: This peace of work deals with the question, whether Beckett¿s 'Endgame' is a continuation of 'Waiting for Godot'. In order to answer it, both plays will be compared to work out similarities as well as differences. Godot will function as a basis and startingpoint for interpretation, that will then turn towards Endgame for comparison to come to a conclusion. Main features of the drama such as plot, setting, characters, action, language and time will be involved in this procedure of analysis.To a certain extent, this approach towards the two plays will also be related to the historical context of Postmodernism and the philosophical background of Existentialism, as well as to characteristics of the Theatre of the Absurd or the Expressionist Theatre.BoD - Books on Demand, In de Tarpen 42, 22848 Norderstedt 24 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In dit boek wordt Waiting for Godot, Happy Days en Endgame van Samuel Beckett geanalyseerd als metafictie-toneelstukken die de aandacht vestigen op hun status als artefacten door vragen te stellen over de relatie tussen fictie en realiteit, meestal met ironie en zelfreflectie. De toneelstukken van Beckett, die in het midden van het Theatre of the Absurd zijn geplaatst, duiden vooral op de slechte situatie van de mens die worstelt voor zijn brood te midden van de chaos om hem heen. Dit is het uitstekende kenmerk van Beckettiaanse toneelstukken en gezien de culturele, sociale en politieke context waarin Beckett leefde en de postmoderniteit ontstond, komen we een schrijfstijl tegen die de grenzen van naturalistisch drama heeft gescheurd waarin de conventionele plot de essentie is. In plaats daarvan zijn de spelen van Beckettian, en vooral de spelen die hier zullen worden afgehandeld, verre van een bepaald plot en impliceren ze verlamde actie. Dat wil zeggen, er is geen duidelijke vooruitgang. Ze spelen meestal in toneelstukken en parodiëren de menselijke situatie.
