Originally a doctoral dissertation defended at bo Akademi University (Finland), it has long been out of print. It has established itself as a standard work in the field. Highly responsive to the rich texture of Beckett's media writings, it also contains scrupulous and comprehensive research into their broadcast history.\u003cbr\u003eFifty years after the first appearance of the dissertation, the Nobel laureate's media corpus is no longer viewed as marginal but as an integral part of a complete classical canon. Scholars interrogate it not only as a case of Beckett testing new techniques but also as ways he found of probing means of oral delivery, of obfuscating the origin of voices, of disembodiment. Apart from that, media work for Beckett offered editability, perfectibility, varnishing. In retrospect, the perspective on Beckett's radio work has widened.\u003cbr\u003eAspects of this kind are covered in a substantial new introduction to this reprint. It comments on the state of the art in Beckett and radio studies, and it reaps the benefit of hindsight offered by half a century of scholarship. The book includes an afterword by Galina Kiryushina, specialist in Beckett and intermediality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47924960264350,"sku":"ING-9781839996542","price":159.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781839996542.jpg?v=1782956306","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781839996542","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
