Absurd drama and its influence on Assamese drama

Author(s) Dewan Nazrul Islam
Country India
Abstract Summary:
The history of the change of dramatic literature is associated with the change of era. There were realistic plays in protest against classical plays, metaphorical plays in protest against realistic plays, expressionist plays, epic plays, etc. It is like a rebellion to break down the walls of old values. It is the expression of a new sense of life and artistic consciousness of writers who are eager for change. This rebellion against the prevailing theatrical style, with the introduction of unrelated unrealistic themes and changes in techniques, became a renaissance in theatrical literature. Therefore, it is important to understand the importance of these two aspects of theater.
There are some characteristics of absurd drama in ancient literature, philosophy, etc., but the horrors of World War II led to the emergence of a separate genre. Absurd drama seems to be a philosophy of life created during World War II.
Keywords Keywords: Absurd, emptiness, non-existence, fatigue, exhaustion, death consciousness.
