Samuel Beckett and Monologue Drama: Performing the Self. The paper discusses four of Samuel Beckett’s monologue plays “Krapp’s Last Tape” (1958), “Play” (1964), “Breath” (1969), “Not I” (1972) and “A Piece of Monologue” (1979), with the purpose of delineating their structure and understanding the playwright’s experimental usage of this artistic genre, as well as its role within his overall dramatic corpus. We will attempt a historical and analytical foray into the many uses of the concept of monologue in both literature and theatre, with the intention to clarify its various appropriations in these fields and with the hope of eliciting further research into this important topic of analysis.
Keywords: Samuel Beckett, dramatic monologue, monologue drama, fractured discourse, performance.
