본문내용

Ⅰ. Introduction
Edward Albee who is acknowledged as the best playwright after Tenessee Williams and Arthur Miller is famous for his absurd dramas in America. The Theater of the Absurd is based on the opinion that existence and the life’s problem of modern people in a civilized society are disorganized and unreasonable. It tells audiences that human is born not having a goal and is just a creature drifting along aimlessly.

<중 략>

New York, which represents American success and stability, collapse of western part and American dream, is livelihood of Americans who give up dreams, ideals, and free will being trained by material society. Central Park in New York is a paradise in the city and represents disappeared dream of green. Time people spend in the park is the time when people escape to illusion from reality of greed and competition. That is, Central Park is the place where tired and lonely people gather. In addition, a bench in Central Park Peter tries to keep suggests stable social position and lonely, disconnected people. It is a symbol of severance and makes Peter fight with Jerry who tries to break his cage meaning the disconnection between people. Time people spend at the bench in the green park represents actually severance. Backgrounds having reversal meanings is the dramatic device used by Edward Albee to make audiences empathy lonely people in the crowd.
