초록
This study explores Orton's Loot through carnivalesque funeral game which attacks the concept of moral and social values. According to the rule of game, Orton's characters in Loot share loot of money as winners in funeral game. Loot portrays the confusion and absurdity of authoritative British modern society of twentieth-century and reveals people's immorality and corruption. In particular, Orton uses the props of corpse, coffin, dentures and artificial eye in order to make audience shocked and to reveal how inhuman society is intrinsically evil and dishonest in the play. Loot unmasks the profound British society's prudery which camouflages hypocritical moral values. The title of Loot is both satiric and revealing of disorder, profanity and dehumanization of modern society. Orton attacks the power of authority and the absurdity of system represented by Inspector Truscott. Orton manages to mock the hypocrisy of traditional social mores through Loot. Accordingly, Loot is the most subversive play in Orton's farcical comedies.
