For Reasons Unknown

They ar entrapd within the situation. However, the worry of Vladimir and move out in delay for graven image begins with their world and themselves. In f recreate, it is the blood line Of the play as well. They idlernot realize the world nor can they realize themselves-?a characteristic of the typical absurdity as defined by Albert Campus in The Myth of Sisyphus. Like Campus in The Myth of Sisyphus, Go and Did do not know whether God exists or not. Their world without certainty promises scarce despair. They regulate a universe without moral restraint, so the universe is nonsensical.The characters in the mentioned plays of Becket, Waiting for God and scrap Without lyric l, argon condemned to move within the immovable good example of futility and hopeless labor. In The Myth of Sisyphus Campus upholds I see numerous people die because they judge that small-armners is not worth support. front opposites paradoxically getting killed for the ideas or illusions that get together them a reason for hold (what is called a reason for living is also an excellent reason for dying). 1 Actually, Vladimir and Go acquire no reason to live nor need they every reason to commit felo-de-se.They have a world which cannot be related to with their idea of the past. They ar driven by a nostalgic zest for the past that is unexplainable through the present. As Did says the good of losing heart now, thats what say. We should have thought of it a million years ago, in the nineties. 2 Moreover, they have a present that is inexplicable through their idealism. Sagos boot, Didos hat, the manoeuvre, the place, the day, Lucky and Bozo, the boy (or boys) and at last, God-?everything is incomprehensible to them. As a matter of fact, they are captured in the frame of their situation.Hence, for hanging themselves, the iris problem to Go and Did is the lack of rope and unbendable tree, that is, the devices and tools of committing suicide are absent hither. Secondly, they cannot leave each separate. If one hangs oneself successfully, whereas the other cannot, the other will remain lonely. So, they mar their plan of committing suicide. Thinking and talking of suicide, even trying it, whitethorn be a vision to them. It may be a style to pass the time. In fact, neer do Vladimir and remove in Waiting for God think of suicide in a realistic context-?though suicide competency have been an execute from the ennui Of action.Throughout the lay Vladimir and Estrange invent many devices to prove their universe of discourse and to pass the time. Taking off boots, Vladimir problem with his hat, their lather to commit suicide, their delay for God-?all gives way to passing their time. It is an interesting fact that Vladimir and Estrange never search for other devices and processes for committing suicide. Maybe, a knife, a pistol, and starvation could suffice their purpose. Even, when they observe Lucky driven by rope, they forget all about it. They might have taken the rope forcibly for hanging themselves.In the second act it is easier for them to snatch it cause Bozo is blind and both of the two are helpless here. Moreover, they forget about when the devices are before them. In reality, they are not serious about killing themselves. They are only thought of it, as many poets thought about and loved to die in imagination, only when never committed suicide. self-destruction for them, so, is just another refreshment of fantasy. It is a strong consolation it helps them to forget the boredom of everyday livelihood where nil can be done at all.They beat it impracticable for the two to kill themselves. They first realize that the only tree in their world, a weeping Lillo, will not support Vladimir weight on the noose and therefore will not break his neck. The second day, Vladimir and Estrange cannot hang themselves because they do not have the requisite piece of rope. By the second day, however, they have forgotten that they canno t hang themselves from the only available tree, and therefore their complaints about the lack of a suitable piece of rope are unnecessary.They observe a world that is devoid of the tools required for committing suicide. Accordingly they come, over again and again, to the realization of nothing-to-be-done. Suicide might have been n end to this meaningless absurd life. They contemplate about hanging themselves on the tree. Suicide can be thought of the ultimate conclusion to a meaningless life. Campus claims that suicide is an attempt to escape from the consciousness of absurdity. But ultimately Campus proposes man to live. They do not commit suicide physically, yet they surrender to the captured situation.Whatever they do is to give the impression that they exist. But this sort of existence only calls for pity. Hanging from the tree would have proved that they have the guts at least to do something. This ontological problem is, no doubt, the main issue of the play. They are on the fence(predicate) whether to go on this nothing-to-be-done life or to commit suicide. They are well-worn of living (Estrange says Im tired breathing. 3), yet they come to the realization that To be exsanguine is not enough. 4 They have no doubt that they are living beings. But they need a meaning to exist.So their realization will never let them commit suicide, kinda they will be waiting for God until he comes. Again, their take up of life is not to resign from life nevertheless to resume it. Vladimir, at the very outset of he play, clarifies it All my life Ive tried to put it Nothing to be done from me, saying, Vladimir, be reasonable, you havent yet tried everything. And I resumed the struggle. 5 After some time Go comments that Did always waits savings bank the last moment. The big nothingness in their world has nothing to do with their life. They are hopeful in the depth of their take heeds of a bright future.So, Did says in the end of the first act, Tomorrow everything wi ll be better That is wherefore they notice that the tree has sprouted leaves in the second act. Whether one says that in the two acts in the play nothing appends Nice or everything happens twice, Vladimir and Estrange are sentenced on the stage (symbolic of the life itself). They cannot escape it. They are exerciseuated to such(prenominal) absurd life-?to talk, to eat, to wait and to live an meaningless life. Campus rightly puts it We get into the habit of living before acquiring the habit of thinking. 7 In this way all the character hopes to carry on living.Moreover, suicide itself may be considered as a vigorous aspect of life. When Go reminds Did of their plan of hanging, Did tells him that it them an erection. Suicide is considered in sexual term here. Though suicide as a sexual term may seem to be funny, it is, in fact, their view of life. They never consider suicide as the annihilation of life rather their thought of suicide strengthens their bond and increases their yearnin g to live, as sexuality begets unsanded life. In the mime play, Act without Words l, the only character is captured in the body, symbolic of the uncomfortable life.In the beginning the man is seen trying to escape from this captured life, but he never can-?he is repeatedly thrown in the dust whenever he tries to escape. Gradually he becomes hopeless to flee, and surrenders himself to the taxation. In this play we find several steps. The entire action of the play takes place in a desert under the scorching sun, suggested by dazzling light. The unnamed man is directed by a blab to move right or left. He can never escape the unbearable sun, though he is given a tree for shade. When he becomes intolerably dispositiony he is shown piddle.But whenever he wants to catch it, it is lifted up in some manner. He is forced to go without food and drink. The play seems a behaviorism experiment within the framework of the Greek classical myth of Tantalus, who stood in a pool of water which r eceded every mime he bent to drink it, and stood under a fruit tree which raised its branches every time he reached for food. The mythologic Tantalus was punished for his own act. Whereas Godsons existence remains uncertain, in Act Without Words there is a God-like force, represented by a sharp whistle which will not permit the man to leave.The play is a legend of resignation from life a condition one reaches only by and by a series of disappointments. The man has learned hardship that there is nothing he can depend on in life other than himself, even to commit suicide. Interestingly he cannot commit suicide also. distant Vladimir and Estrange, he has all the tools to kill himself-?tree, rope and noose, and box to stand on it. Yet he cannot commit suicide because whenever he needs the tools they somehow become unreachable.As a result, he has to submit to the situation without any effort to live or die. In this dumb show the man is not allowed to commit suicide, yet he is not allow ed to be living. He is only granted inertia. AY last he is seen to lose hope to quench his thirst with water in the carafe. He remains defeated, having opted out Of the struggle. We observe here a man in frustrated efforts. The man in Act Without Words I possesses only two natural tools, mind and hands, which brand him from other animals, he tries to survive, to secure some water in the desert.The mind works, at least in part he learns small stoppage on large he invents, or is given inventions scissors, cubes, rope he reacts and tries to end his life. But when he learns to use his tools effectively, they are confiscated the scissors, when he reasons that in addition to cutting his fingernails, he might cut his throat the blocks and rope, when he discovers that they might make a gallows. However, the mans effort to commit suicide s not a vision, rather he tries to escape a life that seems to be a nightmare. Yet he is seized in no-exit situation.
