“THE ICEMAN COMETH” IN WORLD DRAMA AND O’NEILL’S CREATIVE WORLD

Summary/Abstract: The play “The Iceman Cometh” is central to Eugene O’Neill’s creative world as it represents the parable of man’s ability to live with or without illusions in terms of the perennial antithesis: reality vs illusion. Developing one of the eternal themes in world literature, the play finds common ground with a number of literary and philosophical works which in turn draw the line of literary continuity. The present paper explores cross-references of "The Iceman Cometh" with other works and offers a commentary on various interpretations of the play, covering the artistic pursuits of O'Neill’s and our time.
