"Bitter Relationships: Samuel Beckett, Harold Pinter, Athol Fugard, and Culture of Violence"
No full textSamuel Beckett, Harold Pinter, and Athol Fugard, who are among the world’s leading modern dramatists and hail from different countries and continents, are attracted, if not repelled, by the culture of violence that has encircled the world. They, in unambiguous terms and with compelling finality, show that our world is a violent place where the weak run the risk of extinction. In Beckett’s Waiting for Godot and Endgame, in Pinter’s The Caretaker and The Homecoming, and in Fugard’s Sizwe Bansi Is Dead and The Island, violence and the pain it inflicts echo, as it were, modern man’s collective experience. The growing doctrine of pre-emptive military strikes and the propensity for the acquisition of nuclear arsenal as deterrence in our world seem to coincide with the perception of violence in these plays. Samuel Beckett (Irish), Harold Pinter (English), and Athol Fugard (South African), perceived by many as icons of modern dramatists, present a grim picture of barbarism in their plays. Their plays, of course, represent Europe and Africa, and by extension the entire world immersed in rampant and random brutality. At the backdrop of this brutality lies the waste of modern civilization, the emptiness of man’s existence, the spiritual barrenness and moral collapse of the world and its weary people. In these plays, humanity drifts through despair, lamentations, and brutality in a world of lawlessness, where the weak have no protection. In consonance with the belligerent nature of modern man, as seen in the continuing militant legacy of the First and Second World Wars, Beckett, Pinter and Fugard present characters who indulge in both physical and verbal violence
