Modalities of Crossing the Boundaries of Conceptual Thinking in the Theater of Samuel Beckett

Summary/Abstract: Samuel Beckett, one of the “fathers” of the theatre of the absurd, tries to express his feeling of the senselessness of life by devaluating language and by denouncing a meaningless “reality” which hides behind discursive thought. In his dramaturgy, Beckett attempts to express the complexity of human experience by unifying matter and form. The uniqueness of his plays resides in the multiple dimension of the poetic imagery, which combines speech and visual elements. At the same time, a part of his theater is based on the dramatic confrontation between word and image.
