Описание: Confinement appears repeatedly in Samuel Beckett’s oeuvre – from the asylums central to Murphy and Watt to the images of confinement that shape plays such as Waiting for Godot and Endgame. Drawing on spatial theory and new archival research, Beckett in Confinement explores these recurring concepts of closed space to cast new light on the ethical and political dimensions of Beckett’s work. Covering the full range of Beckett’s writing career, including two plays he completed for prisoners, Catastrophe and the unpublished ‘Mongrel Mime’, the book shows how this engagement with the ethics of representing prisons and asylums stands at the heart of Beckett’s poetics.

Описание: This book describes how literature depicts imprisonment in a wealth of metaphors of confinement in literature from the late middle ages to the present day. As well as carceral metaphors the volume explores how notions of imprisonment extend to other situations such as jobs, marriage, and ideology.
