The term is still the subject of heated debate. It clearly refers to that which succeeds modernism, itself an international movement that broke with nineteenth century forms of realism. But the impetus of modernism has continued to the present day, so that postmodernism coexists with that which it claims to displace. The phenomenon of postmodernism then cannot be explained in purely temporal terms. As the French philosopher Jean-François Lyotard has suggested, it represents a radical epistemological break with our understanding of what the human sciences have to offer. What characterizes the postmodern in Lyotard's eyes is the abandonment of those grand narratives that began with the Enlightenment, such as the liberation of humanity or the unification of all knowledge. The unstable, heterogeneous and dispersed social reality of the postmodern cannot be contained within any totalizing theory. Without such metanarratives, Lyotard argues, each work of art, "working without rules in order to formulate the rules of what will have been done

Lezing 2 : Deconstructie van de literaire interpretatie Essay on Waiting for Godot (by Michael Sinclair) The world of "Waiting for Godot" is one without any meaningful pattern, which symbolizes chaos as the dominating force in the world. There is no orderly sequence of events. A tree which was barren one day is covered with leaves the next. The two tramps return to the same place every day to wait for Godot. No one can remember exactly what happened the day before. Night falls instantly, and Godot never comes. The entire setting of the play is meant to demonstrate that time is based on chance, and therefore human life is based on chance. "Waiting for Godot" is all about how the world is based on chance. A world based on chance can have no orderly time sequence, and thus time has no meaning. The extension, then, is that human life has no meaning. Realizing this, humans will create distractions and diversions, in the form of patterns and reliance on nebulous forces, to provide the purpose and meaning that is inherently lacking in their lives. "Waiting for Godot" is the classical, archetypical presentation of this facet of human existence. Bibliography Works Cited Andres, Gunther. Being without Time: On Beckett's Play Waiting for Godot.

But, says Peter Hall, since Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, theatre has never been the same Tweet this Peter Hall The Guardian Saturday 4 January 2003 Waiting For Godot I have been brooding in my bath for the last hour and have come to the conclusion that the success of Waiting for Godot means the end of the theatre as we know it." Robert Morley, the famous character actor, made this prophecy in 1955. His generation - middle-aged - mostly endorsed his gloom. My generation of twentysomethings was glad. The process began exactly 50 years ago, on January 5 1953, when Godot was given its first performance in a 75-seat theatre in Paris. France was where you went for radical theatre in those days. Whether it was the surrealistic images of Eugene Ionesco, the classical splendours of Jean-Louis Barrault and Madeleine Renaud, or the political philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre, Paris continually outshone London.

Samuel Beckett hat darüber eines der bekanntesten Bühnenstücke der Gegenwart geschrieben. Mit einfachen Worten und knappen, lakonischen Sätzen wird die Geschichte von Wladimir und Estragon erzählt. In unwirtlicher Gegend warten die beiden auf Godot. Mehr geschieht nicht. Mehr geschieht nicht? In einer stahlblauen Wellpappenbude, mit ausdrucksstarken Figuren und sparsamen Requisiten, entsteht unversehens eine höchst lebendige, zeitlos moderne Tragikomödie. Gogo und Didi, die beiden skurrilen, abgerissenen Hauptfiguren, kennen das Spiel und die Spielregeln. In ihren Wortgefechten, ihren Gefühlsausbrüchen und in ihrer Lust und Verzweiflung am Leben spielen sie sich die Bälle zu - es geht nicht ums Gewinnen, nur ums überleben.

Educated in Ireland, North and South, he settled afterwards in Paris and produced his fiction and drama in English and French, translating himself out of the language in which he first wrote each text. Having begun literary life as a modernist and promoter of the reputations of Proust and Joyce, in the years before and after the Second World War he found his own voice (“began to write what I feel”) and continued to develop this voice unstintingly and without compromise until the year of his death. According to some sources, while he grew mellower in later life, and his personal relationships grew more stable, his alcohol intake did not. Notoriously reclusive in relation to the press and media, Beckett was nevertheless spoken of by personal associates as friendly, gracious, humorous and compassionate, and while his travels to Ireland abruptly ended following his mother's death, he was conspicuously hospitable to his Irish friends at all times when they came to Paris.

As a student, assistant, and friend of James Joyce, Beckett is considered one of the last modernists; as an inspiration to many later writers, he is sometimes considered one of the first postmodernists. He is also considered one of the key writers in what Martin Esslin called "Theatre of the Absurd". As such, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential writers of the 20th century.

Encyclopedia Beckett, Samuel Beckett, Samuel key Murphy (1938), typifies his later works by eliminating the traditional elements of plot, character, and setting. Instead, he presents the experience of waiting and struggling with a pervading sense of futility. The anguish of persisting in a meaningless world is intensified in Beckett's subsequent novels including Watt Molloy Malone Dies (1951), and The Unnamable How It Is (1961); and The Lost Ones (1972). In his theater of the absurd, Beckett combined poignant humor with an overwhelming sense of anguish and loss. Best known and most controversial of his dramas are Waiting for Godot (1952) and Endgame (1957), which have been performed throughout the world. Beckett was awarded the 1969 Nobel Prize in Literature. Beckett's other works include a major study of Proust (1931); the plays Krapp's Last Tape (1959) and Happy Days (1961); a screenplay
