This collection of essays - the first volume in the Dialogue series - brings together new and experienced scholars to present innovative critical approaches to Samuel Beckett's play Endgame. These essays broach a broad range of topics, many of which are inherently controversial and have generated significant levels of debate in the past. Critical readings of the play in relation to music, metaphysics, intertextuality, and time are counterpointed by essays that consider the nature of performance, the history of the theater and the music hall, Beckett's attitudes to directing his play, and his responses to other directors.
