The two tramps, and the master and servant they encounter, seemed to represent no one and everyone. Today, critics challenge the assumption that Beckett aimed to break definitively with context, highlighting images, allusions, and motifs that tether Becket's writings to real people, places, and issues in his life. This wide-ranging collection of essays from 37 renowned Beckett scholars reveals how extensively Beckett entered into dialogue with important literary traditions and the realities of his time. Drawing on his major works, as well as on a range of letters and theoretical notebooks, the essays are designed to complement each other, building a broad overview that will allow students and scholars to come away with a better sense of Beckett's life, writings, and legacy"--cProvided by publisher.10aBeckett, Samuel,d1906-1989xCriticism and interpretation. 7aLITERARY CRITICISM / European / English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh.2bisacsh1 aUhlmann, Anthony,eeditor of compilation. 2ddccBK c154166d154166 00102ddc406848_914090000000000_SAM708FIC9284976aDULbDULcGENd2015-04-29ePurchasedo848.91409 SAMp490329r2017-01-24t2w2017-01-24yBK 00102ddc406848_914090000000000_SAM708FIC9284979aDULbDULcGENd2015-04-29ePurchasedo848.91409 SAMp490328r2017-01-24t1w2017-01-24yBK
