Q:       DISCUSS   POZZO-LUCKY   RELATIONSHIP    IN RELATION TO THE THEME OF "WAITING FOR GODOT". Q:      EVEN   THE   RELATIONSHIPS    IN   "WAITING FOR GODOT" ARE ABSURD. DO YOU AGREE? Ans: Shaped as they are, by the same culture, the characters in "Waiting for Godot" share a number of common features. Each is split by the same contradiction. On the one hand, he knows himself chiefly as a separate isolated individual, which on the other hand; each is driven to form some kind of relationship with other by need, greed and sometimes by compassion. A solitary existence is a material impossibility but relationships can be of different kinds. Pozzo and Lucky, master and slave, are joined artificially (because they do not like each other) and by force with their rope, while the partnership of Vladimir and Estragon, though not a voluntary one, seems to be based on genuine natural need and relative equality.

Q:      WHO IS GODOT IN "WAITING FOE GODOT" BY SAMUEL BECKETT? Q:      WHY GODOT IS SO PUZZLING AND WHAT PARTICULAR PURPOSES ARE ACHIEVED BY BECKET TO MAKE IT SO MYSTERIOUS? Q:      GIVE A SATISFACTORY DISCUSSION ON THE EXISTENCE OF GODOT? Ans: Ever since its first production "Godot" has been a puzzle for critics. In 1958 Beckett was asked to explain Godot's character. The dramatist promptly replied, "If I know I would have said so in the play". This is to say in other words that Godot could be interpreted in many ways. To whatever extent we stretch our imagination it is never clear who he is? The majority of the critics are, however, of the view that Godot is God whom human being asks for help when they are helpless and miserable. What we learn from the play is that Godot has made a promise to Vladimir that he would see him and Estragon near a tree on a country road. In compliance Vladimir and Estragon are waiting for Godot's ar
