Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

The course examines representative plays by Beckett and Pinter within the context of the contemporary problematic regarding the relationship between theatre and society. We will study the different critical approaches to their work and primarily focus on the ways by which it disrupts  the conventions of realism and the traditional understanding about political theatre. The course will deal with the philosophical and political concerns embedded in their plays and will concentrate on the treatment of time, space, power, guilt, punishment and the construction or dissolution of identity. Special attention will be given to the notion of the ‘other’ regarding the relationship between language and silence, consciousness and the unconscious, man and woman.
