Samuel Beckett and Music
My Ph.D. thesis was entitled Beckett and Music: Incarnating the Idea, and concerned the rather paradoxical place of music in and for Samuel Beckett (1906-1989). In particular, it supplemented the prevalent view of music as abstract and ideal with a more material sense of music, its instruments and frustrations.
