Earticle

Beckett seems to contend that man attempts to create arts to avoid his consciousness of the painful conditions of existence such as chaos, frustration, anxiety, meaninglessness, and alienation. But, in the absurd world, even the artist, who is supposed to possess the keen consciousness of the depth of being, can not but fail in transforming his vision of the painful realities into a sulimate artistic creation. Embers(1959) dramatizes the protagonist Henry's dilemma in sublimating the painful past of his existence into a story. In the play, Henry persistently attempts to create a fictional story to avoid the sound of sea symbolizing his consciousness of the painful past in his existence. But his vision on the realities of his existence is too fragmented to create a sublimate art. In the play, Beckett suggests that the painful consciousness of existence can not be overcome by man's attempts to sublimate it into an artistic creation. After all, Embers, one of the Beckett's best radio plays, emphasizes again the author's pessimistic view of existence.
