This thoughtful volume outlines numerous examples of human folly, from end-of-the-world prophets to ocular misperception, and makes a strong case for becoming more transparent about human fallibility, even when the results can be quite deadly.

26. SAMUEL BECKET  - BIOGRAFIA Biografia ragionata. http://www.cronologia.it/storia/biografie/becket.htm

SCHEDE BIOGRAFICHE PERSONAGGI SAMUEL BECKET di Maria Viteritti Samuel Beckett nasce il 13 aprile 1906 in Irlanda, a Foxrock, un piccolo centro vicino a Dublino, dove trascorre un'infanzia tranquilla, non segnata da eventi particolari. All'età di 14 anni frequenta la stessa scuola di Oscar Wilde, la Port Royal School. Nonostante eccella in moltissime attività (soprattutto sportive, ma è anche già interessato alla letteratura, infatti comincia a studiare Dante con profondo interesse), Beckett coltiva già da ragazzo i segni di un profondo malessere interiore di cui porterà i segni tutta la vita: cresce nella più totale solitudine, isolandosi completamente da chi lo circonda; lo stato di depressione in cui vive è tale da costringerlo a letto giornate intere: spesso infatti non riesce ad alzarsi fino a pomeriggio inoltrato, tanto è pesante da sopportare la realtà che lo circonda. Nonostante ciò, non sono poche le donne disposte a cascare ai suoi piedi; fra le ammiratrici vanterà anche la figlia di James Joyce; però non accetta le avances di nessuna, ancora fermo nell'idea di non legarsi a nessuno. Arriverà addirittura a rompere con la sua prima ragazza perchè non disposto a soddisfarla fisicamente!... La prima svolta importante avviene nel 1928, quando decide di spostarsi a Parigi in seguito all'assegnazione di una borsa di studio da parte del Trinity College, dove studia francese e italiano.

30. Warten Auf Godot Zusammenfassung des St cks von Samuel Beckett. http://ausloeschung.spirgi.com/godot.html

Inhalt Warten auf Godot Die Hauptfiguren des Stückes ergänzen sich gegenseitig und sind gleichzeitig voneinander abhängig. Wladimir ist der Nüchterne, Sachliche, Estragon behauptet von sich, ein Dichter zu sein, er ist launisch und träumt vor sich hin. Wladimir erinnert sich an Vergangenes, Estragon hat die Tendenz alles sehr schnell wieder zu vergessen. Vor allem Wladimir hofft, dass Godot kommen wird, Godots Erscheinen die Situation grundlegend ändert, währenddem Estragon bis zum Schluss skeptisch ist und sogar mehrmals den Namen "Godot" vergisst. Der Titel "Warten auf Godot" lässt vermuten, dass Godot eine abgeleitete Form des englischen Wortes "God" (Gott) ist. Godot ist die "Verkleinerungsform", die im Französischen ähnlich wie Pierrot von Pierre oder Charlot von Charles abgeleitet wird ( ). Wenn das Warten auf Godot ein Warten auf Gott ist, der die beiden Protagonisten Wladimir und Estragon erlösen soll, ergibt sich eine denkbare Erklärung: Die Menschen streben auf einen Gott hin, der sie erlöst. Die Verheissung durch den Jungen bedeutete eine mögliche Metapher für das "Bodenpersonal Gottes" ( ). Der Begriff "Gott" beinhaltet verschiedenste Implikationen und Unklarheiten. Während dem elendiglichen Warten und der ewigen Ungewissheit, bleibt einzig und allein die Hoffnung, die zeitweise in Hoffnungslosigkeit überschlägt. Warten, harren auf etwas, umfasst die Hauptthematik des Stückes und ist Teil des menschlichen Lebens. Im Leben warten wir ständig auf etwas. Godot vertritt den Gegenstand dieses Wartens, ein Ereignis, eine Person, den Tod oder eben Gott. Im 'Akt des Wartens' vergeht die Zeit. Das Leben ist dauernden Veränderungen unterworfen - "the only constant since the beginning of time is change" (

32. Beckett Und Bernhard Betrachtungen von Adrian Spirgi. http://ausloeschung.spirgi.com/vergleich.html

Inhalt Beckett und Bernhard - Ein Vergleich Unterschiede Samuel Beckett und Thomas Bernhard Auffallend ist, dass sich bei beiden Schriftstellern die sozialen Umstände in den Stücken unterscheiden: Becketts Figuren sind verwahrlost, heruntergekommen und abhängig voneinander (Hamm, Clov, Nagg und Nell in " Endspiel ", Wladimir, Estragon, Lucky in " Warten auf Godot "). Die Hauptfiguren sind unmittelbar von ihrer Existenz bedroht: in "Endspiel" gehen die Essensvorräte zu Ende, Clov, Nagg und Nell sind auf Hamms Vorräte angewiesen. In "Warten auf Godot" besitzt einer der beiden Landstreicher nur noch ein paar Radieschen und Rüben. Ihre Hoffnung setzen beide auf Godot. Bernhards Hauptfiguren sind (nahezu ausnahmslos) Reiche und Gelehrte (Der Privatgelehrte Murau in "Auslöschung", Der Prinz in "Verstörung", Die Gute in " ", Die Professoren in Heldenplatz Stilistische Unterschiede Bernhards Darsteller agieren in Selbstgesprächen. Die Perspektive des Werkes, ist die Perspektive der Hauptfigur. Jede Figur lebt in ihrer eigenen Welt. Lange Reden sind keine Seltenheit und Wiederholungen häufig. Bernhards komponierte Sprache kommt vor allem in seinen Prosawerken zum Ausdruck. Ein Literaturwissenschaftler bezeichnete Bernhard einmal als den "Meister des langen Satzes". Die verschachtelten Sätze ziehen sich zum Teil ohne Unterbruch über ganze Seiten hinweg. Inhaltlich werden dadurch die endlosen Monologe der Protagonisten unterstützt. Diese langen Sätze kommen zudem der gesprochenen Sprache näher, hingegen sind viele Ausdrücke und Formulierungen stilisiert. Die entstandene "Kunstsprache" wirkt jedoch nicht unnatürlich, da die Erzähler meist "abgehobene" Geistesmenschen sind.

He was awarded the 1969 Nobel Prize for literature, and reluctantly accepted it after having lobbied the Swedish Academy not to bestow it. At a time when much art was being expressed as a persistent cry of aloneness in giant homogenized cultures, few voices were as persistent on the subject as his. His characteristic despair, though laced with humor, was meted out in such plays as "Endgame," and "Krapp’s Last Tape," 1960, and in novels that including "Molloy," 1951, "Malone Dies" and "The Unnamable." Brooding and sardonic, he focused on the most abhorrent aspects of life, molding them into his own style, clearly haunted by spiritual desolation. He found writing difficult, "an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness." Beckett, who claimed he could remember being a fetus in the womb, was the youngest of two sons of a surveyor and a nurse. He had a conventional Irish Protestant upbringing. He studied classics in high school and attended Trinity College from 1923-1927, earning a B.A. degree in French and Italian. At 21, he moved to Paris, taking a teaching post and falling into the company of other literary expatriates, including James Joyce, a personal friend and inspiration for him.

38. Babab Revista De Cultura, El Arte Según Samuel Beckett (la Realidad Como Raíl) Ensayo sobre la obra del autor irland s por Andreu Navarra Ordo o. http://www.babab.com/no09/samuel_beckett.htm

[Visita nuestra Biblioteca: libros completos totalmente gratis] Literatura Música Imagen Sabidurías ... Biblioteca El arte según Samuel Beckett (la realidad como raíl) por Andreu Navarra Ordoño E l texto titulado El mundo y el pantalón (1) parece desarrollar una serie de ideas sobre el arte, y más concretamente, sobre el pictórico (aunque sus contenidos puedan ser aplicados a cualquier otra actividad creativa). Es muy probable que así sea (de otro modo escribiría muy perdido). Podría tratarse de un ensayo , aunque quizás sea mejor calificarlo de prosa , porque el texto no es, desde luego, un ensayo canónico o habitual. Este es el chiste amargo que lo encabeza: EL CLIENTE: Dios hizo el mundo en seis días, y usted no es capaz de hacerme un pantalón en seis meses. EL SASTRE: Pero señor, mire el mundo y mire su pantalón. A continuación, se desarrolla una especie de letanía gélida, absolutamente desconcertante, que no cesará ya hasta el fin: Para empezar, hablemos de otra cosa, hablemos de dudas antiguas, caídas en el olvido, o reabsorbidas por elecciones que no se ocupan de ellas, por lo que se ha convenido en llamar obras maestras, malas esculturas y obras de mérito. Dudas de aficionado, claro está, de aficionado muy sabio, tal y como sueñan los pintores, que llega agitando los brazos y se marcha agitando los brazos, con la cabeza aturdida por lo que ha creído entrever. Qué tontería las preocupaciones del ejecutante, al lado de las angustias del aficionado, que nuestra iconografía de tres al cuarto ha cebado de fechas, de períodos, de escuelas, de influencias, y que sabe distinguir, hasta tal punto es sabio, entre un gouache y una acuarela, y que de vez en cuando cree adivinar lo que ama, manteniendo el espíritu abierto. Pues el pobre se imagina que nada de lo que es pintura debe serle extraño.

39. Beckett, Samuel Samuel Barclay Beckett (April 13, 1906 – December 22, 1989) was an Irish playwright, novelist and poet. Beckett's work is stark, fundamentally minimalist, and, according to http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Samuel_Beckett

Beckett, Samuel From New World Encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Previous (Samuel Barber) Next (Samuel Butler (novelist)) Samuel Barclay Beckett (April 13, 1906 – December 22, 1989) was an Irish playwright, novelist and poet. Beckett's work is stark, fundamentally minimalist, and, according to some interpretations, deeply pessimistic. Others suggest that Beckett was, in truth, a devout optimist who was saddened by the oppressive state of the world in which he lived, but who believed—and expressed through his art—the redeeming power of the human imagination. Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1969 "for his writing, which—in new forms for the novel and drama—in the destitution of modern man acquires its elevation." Beckett is a unique figure in the history of Western literature. Born in Ireland and culturally Irish, Beckett would write his first works in English in close association with the Modernist movement. Beckett was a close friend of James Joyce , and his early work shows the clear stamp of the incredibly complex style typical of Modernism. At a critical point in his career, however, Beckett experienced what he called an "epiphany"; he distanced himself not only from Joyce and Modernism, but from the English language itself. He would write, for the remainder of his life, in French. Beckett later explained that he found it easier to write in French "without style"—that is, with simplicity and directness free of the extravagances typical of Modernism. During this period Beckett would write many of the works for which he would become most famous, including his watershed play

40. POESIA Ensayo que analiza la peculiaridad del autor, quien en 1938 decidiera escribir en franc s y ya no volvi a escribir obras originales en ingl s hasta 1956. http://mural.uv.es/maqueba/bilinguismo.htm

VOLVER A PÁGINA PRINCIPAL Se pasó al francés para poder sentirse extraño al lenguaje que empleaba, evitar toda veleidad o pretensión artística y alcanzar el grado cero de escritura, en los últimos decenios volvió al inglés una vez alcanzadas esa lejanía y austeridad que necesitaba en su propia lengua natal. En este sentido, Samuel Becquett es el escritor bilingüe más perfecto, pues no se vio obligado a serlo por razones de supervivencia o extraliterarias, sino por pura necesidad expresiva y terminó compaginando los dos idiomas sin que uno de ellos sucediera al otro Desde que en 1938 decidiera escribir en francés, comenzando por traducir Murphy al ya no francés ya no volvió a escribir obras originales en inglés hasta 1956, En esa época buscaba un lenguaje que no fuera "elegante y cortés" es decir que el lenguaje dejara de impresionar por su expresión a favor de su precisión, por eso suprimió todos aquellos detalles que podían parecer superfluos.Hay una tendencia a neutralizar los efectos estilísticos, las figuras literarias remiten a la escritura y no a la palabra hablada. Por tanto desaparece el interés por lo estético y su único interés es decir la verdad. A partir de Premier Amour el lenguaje es creador de lo que dice y se concibe como un espacio independiente que no guarda ninguna relación con lo real exterior. Las obras que escribió en francés permiten escapar a Beckett de las dificultades literarias que se le habían planteado a lo largo de su vida literaria:
