* 荒诞派戏剧的国王， 庸常生活中的梦游者——尤内斯库 * 我肚子里藏着秘密，一个告诉全人类的信息！ * 生存就是荒诞中的漂泊 * 喜剧是悲剧的另一面 欧仁•尤内斯库，罗马尼亚裔法国戏剧大师，以《秃头歌女》掀开了荒诞派戏剧的第一页，引起了戏剧技巧中的一场革命。他的喜剧中包容着悲剧，悲剧中包容着喜剧，悲喜难解难分。笑声中，隐含着作家对人类境况的忧思和无奈。 独幕剧《椅子》是尤内斯库代表作，也是一部“悲剧性闹剧”。讲述一对耄耋之年的夫妇，住在与世隔绝、四面环水的孤岛上，每天百无聊赖地讲述不知重复了多少遍的故事。临终之前，他们对象征着宾客盈门的满台空椅子追述往事，准备向全人类传达“老头的重要信息”。戏的最后，看透世界的老人纵身跳向窗外，而代替他们传达信息的演说家却又聋又哑，只能在黑板上写下无人能懂的文字符号。 【编辑推荐】： 1.尤内斯库是罗马尼亚裔法国戏...(展开全部)
