초록

The repetition in Beckett and O’Neill represents how the modalities in rhetorical techniques have changed to meet the demands of the modern theater. The repetition in Beckett and O’Neill affects the proposed fictional reality that what is represented on stage. Repetition, although limited to being a rhetorical phenomenon is actually the main force that which gives the fictional work the credence necessary for it to be accepted as real. Repetition manifests in different contextual form and manner to better impress upon the audience/reader of what it is symbolizing, but the significations that are associated with what it is repetitive of never actually changes. The repetition functions as a rhetorical tool which links the temporal, spatial and dialogue sequences which might seem disconnected from each other. Beckett and O’Neill employ repetition not only as an element with which to fill in the ‘temporal or circumstantial void’ apparent in the play but also as a ‘suggestive tool’ through which the dramatic situation suggested becomes, transforms into a representation of an actual reality for the audience/reader.

Abstract

The repetition in Beckett and O’Neill represents how the modalities in rhetorical techniques have changed to meet the demands of the modern theater. The repetition in Beckett and O’Neill affects the proposed fictional reality that what is represented on stage. Repetition, although limited to being a rhetorical phenomenon is actually the main force that which gives the fictional work the credence necessary for it to be accepted as real. Repetition manifests in different contextual form and manner to better impress upon the audience/reader of what it is symbolizing, but the significations that are associated with what it is repetitive of never actually changes. The repetition functions as a rhetorical tool which links the temporal, spatial and dialogue sequences which might seem disconnected from each other. Beckett and O’Neill employ repetition not only as an element with which to fill in the ‘temporal or circumstantial void’ apparent in the play but also as a ‘suggestive tool’ through which the dramatic situation suggested becomes, transforms into a representation of an actual reality for the audience/reader.
