Samuel Beckett's work is deeply concerned with physical contact - remembered, half-remembered, or imagined. Applying the philosophical writings of Jean-Luc Nancy and Maurice Merlea u-Ponty that feature sensation, this study examines how Beckett's later work dramatizes moments of contact between self and self, self and world, and self and other.Publication Year: 2013Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan USFormat: PWeight (Gram): 2679 Show more
