Why did Beckett write so often about mental illness, disability, perversion? Why did he take such an interest in 'abnormals' and 'degenerates'? How did he reconceive 'the human' in the wake of Hitler and Stalin? Drawing on Beckett's voluminous archive, as well as his primary texts, the authors use psychoanalysis, queer theory, disability theory and biopolitics to push Beckett studies beyond the normal."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 133-148) and index. 505 00 $t Beckett's safe words : normalising torture in How It Is / $r Dominic Walker. $t Murphy and the Tao of autism / $r Joseph Valente -- Narrating disruption : realist fiction and the politics of form in Watt / $r William Davies -- $t 'no human shape' : unformed Life in The Unnamable / $r Byron Heffer -- Beckett, Evangelicalism and the biopolitics of famine / $r SeaÌn Kennedy -- $t 'He wants to know if it hurts!' : suffering beyond redemption in Waiting for Godot / $r Hannah Simpson -- $t 'as if the sex matters' : Beckett, Barthes and Endgame in love/ $r James Brophy -- $t Beckett's queer time of DeÌfaillance : ritual and resistance in Happy Days / $r Nic Barilar -- $t Beckett's safe words : normalising torture in How It Is / $r Dominic Walker. 600 10 $a Beckett, Samuel, $d 1906-1989 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Beckett, Samuel, $d 1906-1989. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00035621 650 0 $a Sexual orientation in literature. 650 0 $a Disabilities in literature. 650 0 $a Biopolitics in literature. 650 7 $a Biopolitics in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02022030 650 7 $a Disabilities in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01940210 650 7 $a Sexual orientation in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114914 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 1 $a Kennedy, SeaÌn, $d 1974- $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030543.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=239F035E78F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
