Book Synopsis Samuel Beckett and Technology by : Galina Kiryushina
Download or read book Samuel Beckett and Technology written by Galina Kiryushina and published by EUP. This book was released on 2023-05-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores Beckett's engagement with various technologies throughout his artistic career. This collection of essays is the first comprehensive discussion of the role technology plays in shaping Beckett's trademark aesthetics. Samuel Beckett and Technology assembles an innovative and diverse range of scholarly approaches to the topic, which collectively renegotiate our understanding of his work in prose, theatre, film, radio and television. What emerges from these discussions is the centrality of technology for Beckett's creative imagination, a factor that is equally enabling as it is limiting. At the same time, the book reveals how theories of technology can yield new readings of the way Beckett responds to the conditions of technological modernity. As such, Beckett's work is examined in its relation to historical and contemporary technologies, discourses of technicity and technē, post-humanism and the digital age. Galina Kiryushina is a Doctoral Candidate and Researcher at the Centre for Irish Studies, Faculty of Arts, Charles University Prague. Einat Adar is Lecturer in English Literature at the University of South Bohemia. Mark Nixon is Associate Professor in Modern Literature at the University of Reading, where he is also the Co-Director of the Beckett International Foundation.

Download or read book Translating Samuel Beckett Around the World written by José Francisco Fernández and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is an unpreceded critical journey around the world that José Francisco Fernández and Pascale Sardin present in this rewarding collection of essays. Translating Samuel Beckett around the World offers an inclusive foray into the art of translation beyond the confines of French and English. The bold series of linguistic explorations chronicles the shifting geography of the translations of Beckett's works and probes into the cultural and political resonances of the rewriting practices in their various national contexts. Nadia Louar, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, USA That Beckett's work is now treated as 'world literature' is largely thanks to translations into the most diverse languages, from Icelandic to Chinese. Fernández and Sardin have done a brilliant job in assembling this rich and timely volume of essays, drawing attention to the challenges of translating an author who was a self-translator himself and foregrounding the important work of translators around the globe. Dirk Van Hulle, University of Oxford, UK The global reception of Samuel Beckett raises numerous questions: in which areas of the world was Beckett first translated?

Book Synopsis Beckett Translating/translating Beckett by : Alan Warren Friedman
Download or read book Beckett Translating/translating Beckett written by Alan Warren Friedman and published by University Park : Pennsylvania State University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up to now, Samuel Beckett has been considered largely as a commentator on the human condition and on the angst of our time, and as a novelist and a playwright who undermines and manipulates the metaphysical assumptions and conventions that underlie language and representation. This book offers a new perspective. The contributors, all outstanding Beckett scholars, emphasize three significant aspects of Beckett's career that have been acknowledged but given insufficient consideration. Beckett is a translator, an experimenter with form and expression in two languages simultaneously; Beckett is a multimedia creator who has worked with several kinetic, verbal, and visual possibilities and resources; Beckett has inspired experimentation and creativity in others. Thus, translation is viewed in this book not as a secondary production, but rather as a dynamic process that involves adaptations, interpretations, transformations, and transpositions, all activities requiring strategies and techniques for transcoding on the part of the translator. The scholars represented in this book examine both what is translated and how it is translated, with the result that a new set of questions about Beckett's works is raised, and the answers point to further avenues of research.

Book Synopsis Samuel Beckett by : Pascale Casanova
Download or read book Samuel Beckett written by Pascale Casanova and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fascinating new exploration of Samuel Beckett’s work, Pascale Casanova argues that Beckett’s reputation rests on a pervasive misreading of his oeuvre, which neglects entirely the literary revolution he instigated. Reintroducing the historical into the heart of this body of work, Casanova provides an arresting portrait of Beckett as radically subversive—doing for writing what Kandinsky did for art—and in the process presents the key to some of the most profound enigmas of Beckett’s writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969; his literary output of plays, novels, stories and poetry has earned him an uncontested place as one of the greatest writers of our time.

Book excerpt: For fifteen years George Craig has been translating into English the thousands of letters that Samuel Beckett wrote in French. In this cahier he opens that experience, describing the challenges as well as the rewards, which can go from the difficulty of deciphering Beckett s notoriously difficult handwriting to finding an English equivalent for one of Beckett s numerous verbal jokes. This cahier offers an insight into the task of the translator when the writer being translated was himself a master translator."
Download or read book Watt written by Samuel Beckett and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-06-16 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In prose possessed of the radically stripped-down beauty and ferocious wit that characterize his work, this early novel by Nobel Prize winner Samuel Beckett recounts the grotesque and improbable adventures of a fantastically logical Irish servant and his master. Watt is a beautifully executed black comedy that, at its core, is rooted in the powerful and terrifying vision that made Beckett one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century.
Book Synopsis Stories and Texts for Nothing by : Samuel Beckett
Download or read book Stories and Texts for Nothing written by Samuel Beckett and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together three of Nobel Prize winner Samuel Beckett’s major short stories and thirteen shorter pieces of fiction that he calls “texts for nothing.” Here, as in all his work, Beckett relentlessly strips away all but the essential to arrive at a core of truth. His prose reveals the same mastery that marks his work from Waiting for Godot and Endgame to Molloy and Malone Dies. In each of the three stories, old men displaced or expelled from the modest corners where they have been living bestir themselves in search of new corners. Told, “You can’t stay here,” they somehow, doggedly, inevitably, go on. Includes: “The Expelled” “The Calmative” “The End” Texts for Nothing (1-10)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leland de la Durantaye helps us understand Beckett’s strangeness and notorious difficulty by arguing that Beckett’s lifelong campaign was to mismake on purpose—not to denigrate himself, or his audience, or reconnect with the child or savage within, but because he believed that such mismaking is in the interest of art and will shape its future.
