Textes pour rien de Samuel Beckett Place au sein de l’œuvre et enjeux

Often associated with the notion of an impasse, Texts for Nothing reveals great riches, which are outlined in this synthesis of preceding critical works. We note the multiple meanings of the title, the cyclic movement of the chapters marked by structuring breaks. Representing a moment of renewal, this corpus opens up to the works that follow. The central place given to language leads to a breach that interrupts the linearity of prose.
