This collection of essays, most of which return to or renew something of an empirical or archival approach to the issues, represents the most comprehensive analysis of Beckett’s relationship to philosophy in print, considering how philosophical issues, conundrums, and themes play out amid narrative intricacies. The volume is thus both an astonishingly comprehensive overview and a scries of detailed readings ol the intersection between philosophical texts and Samuel Beckett’s oeuvre, offered by a plurality ol voices and bookended by an historical introduction and a thematic conclusion.
