Description

1. INTRODUCTION Samuel Beckett is unquestionably the leader of the absurdist writers. His first play written in English--Happy Days--had won the Obie Award (1961-1962), and considered Beckett's extreme exploration on how much the theatre can do without and still be a theatre. The question it elucidated is still being discussed over dozens of years. However, it shares many similarities with Prometheus Bound, one of the oldest Greek tragedies written by Aeschylus.

Discussions will be made later, and the answer is in the analysis.
