ESSAY ON: Beckett & Ibsen on Self-Discovery

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: A 5 page essay that compares the focus on identity in Samuel Beckett's play Krapp's Last Tape with that portrayed in Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House. The writer argues that each playwright has their protagonist go through a process of self-discovery, in which the reality of their lives is suddenly seen through fresh eyes. This new perception is a cathartic epiphany of understanding for both characters. However, the context of these plays and the emotional "places" that these two protagonists arrive at are diametrically opposed. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
