The Semiotics of Beckett's Theatre: A Semiotic Study of the Complete Dramatic Works of Samuel Beckett

What this book will hopefully contribute to the general canon of theatrical studies is its study of the Beckettian dramatic text not as a model of the 'absurd' tradition, but rather as a cultural product whose writer's thinking can scarcely be dissociated from the cultural environment within which it took shape, and whose deciphering requires the use of cultural codes and sub-codes that will undergo detailed examination in the course of analysis, a study that we may so generically call a cultural semiotic study of Beckett.Khaled Besbes is the author of 'The Semiotics of Beckett's Theatre: A Semiotic Study of the Complete Dramatic Works of Samuel Beckett', published 2007 under ISBN 9781581129557 and ISBN 1581129556.
