IntroThe endgame is a one-act play, originally written in French as (Fin de partie), translated into English by Beckett himself. It features four characters and carries on Beckett's absurdist legacy from Waiting for Godot. First performed in French in London in 1957, it saw a similar fate to Waiting for Godot, receiving mixed reviews, with many people claiming it was no different from it. It is now considered a work of considerable importance in the field of painting. Theater of the Absurd, cementing Beckett's importance as a major contributor to this genre. Summary We are introduced to the main characters who seem to have survived some apocalyptic disaster. The scenes are set in a bare interior with minimal scenic setting. It should be one of the characters, Hamm's house. The rest of the characters include Clov, who appears to be his servant, his father Nagg, and his mother Nell. There are two garbage cans on stage, and Nagg and Nell sit inside them. Hamm is blind and confined to a wheelchair. Clov, on the other hand, cannot sit and there is confusion as to whether or not he is Hamm's son. Nell and Nagg are legless and are therefore confined to the bins. Hamm cannot move, but has access to the food necessary for their survival. Hamm is shown as a tyrant who orders from the throne of his wheelchair and is very harsh towards the rest of the characters. Clov, the servant, is a man caught between duty and revolt, and continues to tolerate Hamm's senseless whims. As in WFG, the plot is not well defined and it is difficult to present a clear overview, but there is a basic structure of events that seem to be repetitive (again, like WFg). They don't necessarily contribute to a neat plot, but...at the center of the card...nuendo for the birth of Christ. The other boy at the end, defined as a “potential procreator”, is a more direct symbol. Interestingly, Noah's son was named Ham, and although Noah's story is a revival story, Hamm, the character is a representative of everything but that. He is someone who is trapped in a particular cycle and refuses to let go so that a new beginning can occur. The point here is not that regeneration is necessary, or any good. The message is that not letting this happen is equally useless. Hamm seems intent on letting things remain the rot that they are, and is afraid of even the smallest flea that could repopulate the world. A rather interesting oxymoron is seen when Hamm asks Clov to kill the flea "for God's sake". ”, or it could regenerate the world. Suggesting an evolutionary explanation in the name of God sounds as blasphemous as it is funny.
