"Samuel Beckett once wrote that were he in the unfortunate position
of a critic studying his work, one of his points of departure would
be the ideas of the seventeenth-century philosopher, Arnold
Geulincx. Samuel Beckett and Arnold Geulincx: Tracing a literary
fantasia is the first full-length study to document the extent of
the influence Geulincxs philosophy had on Becketts prose and late
drama. Establishing itself as a reference point for Becketts
published and unpublished writings, David Tuckers study presents a
clear, chronological exploration of Becketts engagement with
Geulincx, and of how this engagement marks, and is marked by,
broader changes in Becketts aesthetic thinking. By positioning
close, interpretative philosophical readings alongside analyses of
archival materials, Tucker sets out an affirmative and
reconciliatory approach to divergent strands in contemporary
Beckett Studies."
