Beckett is an author whose works are strongly related to the psychological and historical trauma of our age. His works not only explore the multifarious aspects of trauma but also radically challenge our conception of trauma itself by the unique syntax of language, aesthetics of fragmentation, bodily malfunctions and the creation of void. Instead of simply applying current trauma theories to Beckett, this book provides new perspectives that will expand and alter them by employing other theoretical frameworks in literature, theatre, art, philosophy and psychoanalysis. It will inspire anybody interested in literature and trauma, including specialists and students working on twentieth-century world literature, comparative studies, trauma studies and theatre /art. 410 0$aManchester scholarship online. 606 $aPsychic trauma 606 $aPsychic trauma in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPsychic trauma. 615 0$aPsychic trauma in literature. 676 $a820.9/0091 702 $aTsushima$b Michiko$f1963- 702 $aTajiri$b Yoshiki$f1964- 702 $aTanaka$b Mariko Hori 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480109403321 996 $aSamuel Beckett and trauma$91938669 997 $aUNINA
