WAITING FOR GODOT BY SAMUEL BECKETT AND THE LAST GODOT BY MATEI VISNIEC WHO IS GODOT?

Summary/Abstract: The present article aims to reveal the various roles played by the mysterious character Godot. In Samuel Beckett's play, Godot is expected by two characters, who consider him a savior, a master, a protector, but who doesn't appear. In fact, Godot will never appear, and the wait for the characters will be endless. Matei Visniec offers a solution to this mystery and creates Godot, who has the opportunity to meet his author and reproach him for his absence from the text. Godot will not receive the image of a savior of souls, but he will still be the one who will save, through his presence, the theater and the culture.
