  • Author: Miyawaki (Éri)
  • Abstract: The works of the Sixties and Seventies are characterized by the development of an austere and invisible gaze. Breaking with the possibility of shared exchange of glances between the seer and the seen, akin to the executioner / victim couple, Beckett questions the presence of a “non perceived perceiver” standing apart from the visible world, as described by Sartre. In his search for a suitable vantage point and an attempt to overcome dualism, his texts often become a virulent criticism of the philosophy of vision.
