The Making of Samuel Beckett’s En attendant Godot/Waiting for Godot

2018 || Paperback || Dirk Van Hulle e.a. || UPA

This volume of the BDMP analyses the genesis of En attendant Godot. Samuel Beckett wrote his most famous play between 9 October 1948 and 29 January 1949, as a relaxation from the ‘awful prose’ of the trilogy he was writing at the time, and it soon became a worldwide success after its Paris premiere at the Théâtre de Babylone in January 1953. Having little to no experience in the theatre, Beckett significantly revised the text in rehearsal and in the English translation that followed in ...

BDMP The making of Samuel Beckett's Malone meurt/Malone Dies

2017 || Paperback || Dirk Van Hulle e.a. || UPA

This volume analyses the genesis of Beckett’s novel Malone meurt / Malone Dies. Written in French in 1947-1948, and translated into English by the author in 1954-1956, it is the second part of the so-called ‘Trilogy’, preceded by Molloy and followed by L’Innommable / The Unnamable.

Because Malone’s account approximates a diary, this book starts from H. Porter Abbott’s notion of ‘diary fiction’ to examine the surviving manuscripts, typescripts, and pre-book publication extracts...

Beckett Digital Manuscript Project The making of Samuel beckett's krapp's last tape/la derniere bande

2017 || Paperback || Dirk Van Hulle || UPA

This volume of the BDMP analyses the genesis of Beckett’s play Krapp’s Last Tape, written in 1958, and translated into French in the same year. The play is characterized by the stark opposition light/darkness, relating to the dualism of mind and body, which makes it a suitable case to study Beckett’s developing views on cognition. The notes, manuscripts and typescripts are therefore examined from a cognitive perspective. The study combines genetic criticism and cognitive narratology, st...

The Making of Samuel Beckett’s Fin de partie/Endgame

2018 || Paperback || Dirk Van Hulle e.a. || UPA

This volume of the BDMP analyses the genesis of Fin de partie / Endgame. Described by Samuel Beckett as more ‘inhuman’ than Waiting for Godot and as possessing an ability to ‘claw’, it was his favourite among all his plays and yet also a work the genesis of which was particularly arduous. It took Beckett many years to complete the French version, and about the translation process he complained in 1957: ‘What a losing battle it is always’. This book explores that genesis through an...
