Responding to the post-catastrophic situations in the twentieth century, Beckett created characters who often seem to have been through an unknown catastrophe. Although the importance of catastrophe in Beckett has been noted sporadically, there has been no substantial attempt to discuss his aesthetics and work in relation to it. This collection will therefore serve as the first sustained study to explore the theme of catastrophe in Beckett and will be a highly significant contribution to Beckett studies. Michiko Tsushima is Professor at University of Tsukuba, Japan. She has published articles and books on Beckett and Arendt. Her publications include The Space of Vacillation: The Experience of Language in Beckett, Blanchot, and Heidegger (2003). With Mariko Hori Tanaka and Yoshiki Tajiri, she co-edited Samuel Beckett and Pain (2012) and Samuel Beckett and trauma (2018). Yoshiki Tajiri is Professor at the University of Tokyo. He has published widely on Samuel Beckett, J. M. Coetzee, Kazuo Ishiguro and other authors. His publications include Samuel Beckett and the Prosthetic Body (Palgrave, 2007). Mariko Hori Tanaka is Professor at Aoyama Gakuin University in Tokyo, Japan. She co-edited four collections of essays on Beckett in English and authored two books on Beckett in Japanese including Revised Versions of Waiting for Godot: Beckett as Director (2017). . 001454152 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on February 02, 2023). 001454152 60010 $$aBeckett, Samuel,$$d1906-1989$$xCriticism and interpretation. 001454152 650_0 $$aDisasters in literature. 001454152 650_0 $$aWar in literature. 001454152 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001454152 7001_ $$aTsushima, Michiko,$$d1963-$$eeditor.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000072505201 001454152 7001_ $$aTajiri, Yoshiki,$$d1964-$$eeditor.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000114471215 001454152 7001_ $$aTanaka, Mariko Hori,$$eeditor.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000375808648 001454152 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tSamuel Beckett and catastrophe.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2023$$z9783031083679$$w(OCoLC)1355097106 001454152 852__ $$bebk 001454152 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-08368-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001454152 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1454152$$pGLOBAL_SET 001454152 980__ $$aBIB 001454152 980__ $$aEBOOK 001454152 982__ $$aEbook 001454152 983__ $$aOnline 001454152 994__ $$a92$$bISE
