Mangalam Lengua y Literatura Drama Nazism Fantasy Resistance Absurd Drama This paper looks at English Poetic Drama and its influence on Absurd Drama, in its evocation of anti-totalitarian structure of power in Europe between the Inter-War period. The plays of Auden & Isherwood are examined to analyse their use of fantasy, animal imagery to critique the rise of Nazism. A Comparative reading of Ionesco’s use of fantasy and animal image to depict ideological transformation of people at any given time, is undertaken to compare and contrast the two major theatre traditions of Poetic Drama and Absurd Drama. Ionesco had subsequently commented that he was depicting Nazification of a country in his play Rhinoceros. The specific, historical markers and ideological standpoint of Auden & Isherwood’s plays are juxtaposed to an ideologically non-committed representation of fear and herd mindset through fantasy in Ionesco’s play. The paper looks at the thirties to sixties of the 20th Century as reflected in the plays of the three playwrights under study. 2017 artículo científico 2455-6580 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=703876860005 https://doi.org/10.53032/tcl.2017.1.6.05 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7038 The Creative Launcher application/pdf Perception Publishing The Creative Launcher (India) Num.6 Vol.1 |
