The primary purpose of radio is to convey information from one place to another through the intervening media (i.e. air space, nonconducting materials) without wires. New Columbia Encyclopedia Thesis: The phonograph emphasizes the self in the lack of subject. This machine bears a paradox: it identifies a voice, fixes the deceased (or mortal) person, registers the dead and thus perpetuates his living testimony, but also achieves his automatic reproduction in absentia : my self would live without me horror of horrors! Charles Grivel, "The Phonograph's Horned Mouth" The Beckett who began to write radio plays in the mid-fifties was no stranger to the medium: in Roussillon, where he lived in hiding from 1942-45, the radio transmitter was the crucial information conduit for Resistance groups, and the BBC, which was to commission

Samuel Beckett: an introduction By Stephen Colbourn Bookshop English Literature Samuel Beckett Modern drama ... GCSE Books Samuel Beckett wrote many of his works in French then re-worked them into English; meaning he re-expressed rather than translated them. Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977) made a similar claim, that he wrote two separate texts of his books - one in Russian and one in English - and both men came to prefer their second or adopted tongue, as did Joseph Conrad (1857-1924). These writers lived in exile. So did James Joyce (1882-1941) who was a major influence on Beckett. They were polyglot Europeans whose works were not limited to or by English. Beckett wanted to strip language to its naked elements in search of meaning. Working in French he believed he avoided a concern with elegance of style and came closer to saying what he meant without worrying overmuch how he said it. To Joyce, whom Beckett greatly admired, language was a game. They both attempted to stretch the limits of language - Joyce at the upper and Beckett at the lower end - and their work in the literary playing fields is not without humour as distinct from mirth. Both are difficult writers. Both were exceedingly even obsessively well-read. Beckett had a fearsome reputation as a growling intellectual who preferred silence (on the part of others) to conversation for the sake of something to say. He took Wittgenstein's dictum exactly:

Film by Samuel Beckett "The greatest Irish film" Gilles Deleuze In Film Buster Keaton plays a character who in Beckett's words is "in search of non-being, in flight from extraneous perception breaking down in the inescapability of self-perception." Beckett explains in his script that he has sundered his character in two: the character played by Keaton is called 'O' or the object who throughout the film is pursued by the subject 'E' or the 'camera-eye'. As long as the camera or 'E' stays behind Keaton (O), 'O' will avoid being perceived. The camera is designated, in Beckett's phrase, an "angle of immunity" of 45 degrees which it must not exceed at the risk of causing 'O' to experience the "anguish of perceivedness." In a forthcoming study on Leibniz and Neo-baroque Literature, which is ground-breaking in many respects, Garin Dowd offers clues as to how Film forms part of a whole series of works in the Beckettian oeuvre which are similarly structured. "In Beckett projects are usually subject to an unfaltering errancy: a project is painstakingly pursued until such point as the subject, although 'going on' (as at the close of the The Unnameable) finds all teleology linking it to it's object (the project) broken down. Such fugal projects are those of waiting in Godot, fabulation in Company, rememberance in Krapps Last Tape, inventory in Malone Dies, work in Watt, and death in The Lost Ones." 'O's flight from perception which breaks down in the face of the inevitability of self-perception extends this series.

December 22, 1989, Paris, France Samuel Barclay Beckett was born at Cooldrinach in Foxrock, County Dublin, on 13 April 1906. He was the second of two sons of a middle-class Protestant family. He studied at Earlsfort House in Dublin, and then at Portora Royal School in Enniskillen where he first began to learn French, one of the two languages in which he would write. Beckett's mother, May, was neurotic, bigoted, abusive, and cruel. Beckett, excelled in modern languages and athletics in the Protestant schools and at Trinity College in Dublin. Beckett enjoyed the vibrant theater scene of post-independence Dublin, preferring revivals of J.M. Synge plays. Moreover, he had the opportunity to watch American films and discover the silent comedies of Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin that would crucially influence his interest in tramps.
