Sterility relationship in Samuel Beckett's endgame

Abstract EN

Endgame" is one of Samuel Beckett's well-known dramas in addition to "Waiting for Godot".

It is described as a complex voyage that is written before we may understand the way to read or criticize such drama.

Attempting to comprehend "Endgame" means comprehending its mystery.

"Endgame" is an experience through which man lives an isolation while he misses the lost past to have a sense of meaning and identity.

Isolation, sterility relations and death result in pain and worry in the environment the characters live in.

The play opens with a silent show, no words at all.

The setting is a small room with two small windows, two covered dustbins, a chair in the centre, and a door.

The light in the room is grey.

The chair in the middle is covered by a sheet.

Clov, one of the characters, holds the ladder, moves from one window to the other to open the arras.

Then, he removes the sheet from the only chair that lies in the middle of the room to wake up Hamm, the main character or one can say the master of the game.

The main event in the play is the relationship between Hamm and Clov and whether Clov is going to leave Hamm or not.

Hamm provides shelter and food, while Clov provides his services through his legs and eyes.

The current research addresses the Sterility Relationship between the characters of "Endgame".
