Описание: Absurdism, a mid-twentieth-century literary and theatrical movement that emerged from the disillusionment following World War II. This style is defined by a rejection of traditional dramatic structures, featuring nameless characters, nonsensical dialogue, and sparse settings to mirror a world perceived as illogical and futile. Major figures discussed include Samuel Beckett, whose masterpiece Waiting for Godot serves as the movement's definitive work, alongside Eugène Ionesco, Edward Albee, and Harold Pinter. These authors utilized black humor and grotesque imagery to explore deep-seated themes of human isolation, the breakdown of language, and the inherent senselessness of existence. While the formal movement largely dissolved by the 1960s as writers moved toward more realistic styles, its influence remains visible in modern popular culture, including film, television, and music videos. In addition to biographical sketches and play summaries, the text includes critical essays examining how the movement challenged actors and continues to be interpreted by scholars today.
