초록

Harold Pinter’s Moonlight depicts the theme of dying. Andy, who is a dying man, and his wife Bel, who is attending him, attempt their two estranged sons, Jake and Fred, to return and come to his father’s deathbed, but only to fail. Andy’s yearning for contact to sons makes him tragic and he is suffering from dying alone. In order to show the pain and sorrow of Andy and his family and friends, Pinter uses episodic structure in the play. Every fragmental episode is full of emotional openness on the death of Andy. In each episode, Andy is described by his family and friends as a father, husband, and friend from multiple angles. When his family and friends describe Andy, they express their instant emotion and speak without restraint. The characters do not refrain from saying honestly. As a result, the image of Andy varies and, sometimes, he is described with contradictory comments by the same person. When we, as audience/readers, do dramatic experience, we make the more or less 17 fragmental episodic events be joined together and weave a story of Andy. We try to understand him while finding many incompatible images of Andy. Therefore, provided with various images of Andy caused by characters’ emotional openness, we are able to do dramatic experience more actively and understand him more deeply.

Abstract

Harold Pinter’s Moonlight depicts the theme of dying. Andy, who is a dying man, and his wife Bel, who is attending him, attempt their two estranged sons, Jake and Fred, to return and come to his father’s deathbed, but only to fail. Andy’s yearning for contact to sons makes him tragic and he is suffering from dying alone. In order to show the pain and sorrow of Andy and his family and friends, Pinter uses episodic structure in the play. Every fragmental episode is full of emotional openness on the death of Andy. In each episode, Andy is described by his family and friends as a father, husband, and friend from multiple angles. When his family and friends describe Andy, they express their instant emotion and speak without restraint. The characters do not refrain from saying honestly. As a result, the image of Andy varies and, sometimes, he is described with contradictory comments by the same person. When we, as audience/readers, do dramatic experience, we make the more or less 17 fragmental episodic events be joined together and weave a story of Andy. We try to understand him while finding many incompatible images of Andy. Therefore, provided with various images of Andy caused by characters’ emotional openness, we are able to do dramatic experience more actively and understand him more deeply.
