From an inauspicious beginning at the tiny Left Bank Theatre de Babylone in 1953, followed by bewilderment among American and British audiences, Waiting for Godot has become of the most important and enigmatic plays of the past fifty years and a cornerstone of twentieth-century drama. As Clive Barnes wrote, “Time catches up with genius … Waiting for Godot is one of the masterpieces of the century.”
The story revolves around two seemingly homeless men waiting for someone—or something—named Godot. Vladimir and Estragon wait near a tree, inhabiting a drama spun of their own consciousness. The result is a comical wordplay of poetry, dreamscapes, and nonsense, which has been interpreted as mankind’s inexhaustible search for meaning. Beckett’s language pioneered an expressionistic minimalism that captured the existential post-World War II Europe. His play remains one of the most magical and beautiful allegories of our time.
Samuel Beckett (1906-1989), one of the leading literary and dramatic figures of the twentieth century, was born in Foxrock, Ireland and attended Trinity University in Dublin. In 1928, he visited Paris for the first time and fell in with a number of avant-garde writers and artists, including James Joyce. In 1937, he settled in Paris permanently. Beckett wrote in both English and French, though his best-known works are mostly in the latter language. A prolific writer of novels, short stories, and poetry, he is remembered principally for his works for the theater, which belong to the tradition of the Theater of the Absurd and are characterized by their minimalist approach, stripping drama to its barest elements. In 1969, Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature and commended for having "transformed the destitution of man into his exaltation." Beckett died in Paris in 1989.
At the age of seventy-six he said: "With diminished concentration, loss of memory, obscured intelligence... the more chance there is for saying something closest to what one really is. Even though everything seems inexpressible, there remains the need to express. A child need to make a sand castle even though it makes no sense. In old age, with only a few grains of sand, one has the greatest possibility." (from Playwrights at Work, ed. by George Plimpton, 2000)
“To all mankind they were addressed, those cries for help still ringing in our ears! But at this place, at this moment of time, all mankind is us... What are we doing here, THAT is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in this immense confusion one thing along is clear. We are waiting for Godot to come—“

評分The way I see it just for now, we are all waiting for Godot (or at least try to believe so). That's the way we live by, but ironically how we don't live on.

評分贝克特的文字是一堵墙。 密闭的空间,思想是幻象,荒诞才是真实。 他把自己反锁在房间内,静默在椅子上,钻进自己的身体,从自己的内部寻找出口,这些出口简化为各种感官感受的指代:听觉,视觉,触觉。这样的典型场景也出现在培根的画面中,所以说,培根的画面是躁动不安的。...
評分(一) 爱斯特拉贡 爱斯特拉贡是整本书第一个出场人物,然而他的出场方式却非常特别。在其他戏剧中首先是要介绍人物的外貌或者背景来给读者留下印象的,但是爱斯特拉贡的出场却是一个反复不停地“脱鞋”动作。而“脱鞋”这个动作贯穿了整个剧本,在这两幕的开头和结尾处都...
評分《等待戈多》只有两幕,却被称为“英国荒诞派戏剧的第一剧”。它的经典之名让二十一世纪的我们依然拜读。它何以久负盛名呢? 《等待戈多》出自于爱尔兰剧作家、小说家,荒诞派戏剧奠基人——贝克特之手。在剧中,没有展示激烈的戏剧冲突、引人入胜的情节,甚至没有塑造任...
評分选集里面好像郭翻译的文章都属于重度困难的,特别难以进入。例如在《世界与裤子》中缺少相应的译者注,很多美术的东西都需要大量相关知识背景,硬读下去对普通读者来说非常吃力。《无法称呼的人》则本来就难,全部都是飘忽的心理活动,翻译成中文令我觉得一定少了什么东西,就...
