Michael Y. Bennett's accessible Introduction explains the complex,
multidimensional nature of the works and writers associated with
the absurd - a label placed upon a number of writers who revolted
against traditional theatre and literature in both similar and
widely different ways. Setting the movement in its historical,
intellectual and cultural contexts, Bennett provides an in-depth
overview of absurdism and its key figures in theatre and
literature, from Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter to Tom Stoppard.
Chapters reveal the movement's origins, development and present-day
influence upon popular culture around the world, employing the
latest research to this often challenging area of study in a
balanced and authoritative approach. Essential reading for students
of literature and theatre, this book provides the necessary tools
to interpret and develop the study of a movement associated with
some of the twentieth century's greatest and most influential
cultural figures.
