This is an online posting, no need to make it into essay. Answer all six questions separately. Answers should be based on PowerPoint attached and the links in it. Here are the questions:
This is an in-depth assignment, requiring you to think deeply and to look at this play in a broad view about its meaning and message.
1. What about this play makes it different from a conventional play; what qualities are the same, what are different?
2. What would you say was the overall theme in this play?
Use quotes from the text to support your answers:
3. There is extensive stage direction in this play, but very little actual description about the physical appearance of the characters. There are references to what they are doing and therefore certain physical aspects are revealed. From what you have read, do you think the videos give an accurate picture of what the 2 main characters look like? Substantiate your answer with quotes from the book. What do you think they should look like- not just their size, but what they are wearing? What kind of people do they remind of?
4. What do you think is the relationship between these 2 men and why have you come to this conclusion? Substantiate your opinion with quotes from the book.
(Remember that this was written 60 years ago in France and certain American modern assumptions are not relevant here.)
5. Look up the philosophy of ‘Existentialism’ and determine whether this play
relates to that philosophy and why. Again, use the text to support your conclusion.
6. Think carefully- what are these 2 men doing and what are they waiting for? What does the little boy at the end of the act symbolize? Support your view.
