He shows that Beckett’s aesthetic preoccupations are consonant with some of Schopenhauer’s seminal arguments regarding the arational basis of artistic composition and appreciation and the impotence of reason in human affairs. While Beckett’s critical writings are, in places, formidably opaque, this work examines the ways in which such texts can be elucidated when their intertextual affinities with Schopenhauer’s arguments are revealed. Using Schopenhauer’s thought as a presiding interpretative framework, Barron demonstrates how the widespread presence of philosophical and theological ideas in Beckett’s creative texts signifies less about his personal convictions than it does about his authorial aims. He thereby highlights the ways in which discursive ideas were appropriated and manipulated by Beckett for purely literary ends. A central contention of this book is that to judge the place of ideas within Beckett’s art, we should ignore questions of their theoretical persuasiveness and consider their role as purely aesthetic devices, the value of which is revealed in terms of the existential impact they have upon his characters. In each of the chapters that deal with Beckett’s fiction, Barron underscores the artistically energizing tensions that exist between the concepts that Beckett’s characters invoke in their attempts to comprehend the import of their experiences and their conative and affective tribulations which invariably prove resistant to such analysis. Here the means by which such conceptual aporias engender semantic potentialities underpin an exploration of Beckett’s creative assimilation of rational discourse. While the focus of this publication is upon Beckett’s early and middle fiction, which was composed at a time when the relationship between the chaos of quotidian ordeals and the value of rational thought became most acutely relevant for him, numerous cross-references to his dramatic and poetical works are provided in order to highlight the overall significance of these issues within his oeuvre.“This is a much-needed study on Beckett’s lifelong engagement with Schopenhauer, thoroughly informed by recent discoveries in Beckett studies. It proves beyond doubt that Schopenhauer remained Beckett’s most intimate creative conversation partner, not just in terms of metaphysics, but also in terms of imagery and verbal details.”—Professor Erik Tonning, University of Bergen; Author of Samuel Beckett’s Abstract Drama: Works for Stage and Screen 1962–1985 (2007)Samuel BeckettSchopenhauerphilosophySamuel BeckettSchopenhauerphilosophy111.85092Barron Anthonyaut1710620Feldman MatthewauiMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910959743103321Against reason4101417UNINA
