The BBC acted as a key interpreter and promoter of Beckett’s work during this crucial period of his "getting known" in the Anglophone world in the 1950s and 1960s, especially through the culturally ambitious Third Programme, but also by the intermediary of the house magazine, The Listener. The BBC ensured a sizeable but also informed reception for Beckett’s radio plays and various “adaptations” (including his stage plays, prose, and even poetry); the audience that Beckett's works reached by radio almost certainly exceeded in size his readership or theatre audiences at the time. In rethinking several key aspects of his relationship with the BBC, a mix of new and familiar Beckett critics take as their starting point the previously neglected BBC radio archives held at the Written Archive Centre in Caversham, Berkshire. The results of this extended reassessment are timely and, in many cases, quite surprising—for readers of Beckett and for scholars of radio, “late modernism,” and post-war British culture more broadly. 000780606 588__ $$aVendor-supplied metadata. 000780606 60010 $$aBeckett, Samuel,$$d1906-1989. 000780606 650_0 $$aDramatists, English$$xCriticism and interpretation. 000780606 650_0 $$aRadio plays$$xHistory. 000780606 7001_ $$aAddyman, David. 000780606 7001_ $$aFeldman, Matthew. 000780606 7001_ $$aTonning, Erik. 000780606 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781349951307$$z1349951307$$w(OCoLC)957140586 000780606 852__ $$bebk 000780606 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-54265-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000780606 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:780606$$pGLOBAL_SET 000780606 980__ $$aEBOOK 000780606 980__ $$aBIB 000780606 982__ $$aEbook 000780606 983__ $$aOnline 000780606 994__ $$a92$$bISE
