Waiting for Godot is a 1953 play by Samuel Beckett that has become one of the most important and enigmatic plays of the 20th century. The story revolves around two men waiting for someone – or something – named Godot. His play remains one of the most magical and beautiful allegories of our time.

Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature and commended for having “transformed the destitution of man into his exaltation”.

Waiting for Godot belongs to "The Theatre of the Absurd”, focusing on absurdist fiction. It shares the existentialist condition that there is no God or superior knowledge we can depend on. However, a major difference from existentialism that it does not share that we can create our own meaning.

It is better described as an absurdist play. This stems from the absurdist philosophy of Albert Camus, who describes the Absurd in his essay “The Myth of Sisyphus”, as the human incapacity of finding meaning in a meaningless world. The characters are doomed to be faced with the Absurd, and all they can do is try to pass the time.

The Psychology of The Fool

1 views 1 year ago

,The fool is one of the most relatable, intriguing and recurring figures in the world. There have been fools who have caused surprise and laughter since time immemorial. We worship folly by seeing it in people and in the world and by willingly displaying it in ourselves. It is one of the timeless archetypes, which we all inherit at birth. Many of us suffer from the absence of the fool in our lives. Frenetic and upright, we take ourselves too seriously. As William Shakespeare said, “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.” Forgetting that playfulness is a basic human need, we wonder why we so easily become bored and exhausted, losing all capacity for spontaneity, authenticity, and passion. The antidote to this would be to give the fool archetype some space in our lives. “The soul demands your folly; not your wisdom.” - Carl Jung ⭐ Become a Patron (exclusive content): https://www.patreon.com/eternalised 📺 YouTube Member (exclusive content): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqos1tl0RntucGGtPXNxkkA/join 🛒 Official Merch: https://eternalised.creator-spring.com ☕ Donate a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/eternalised 📘 PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/eternalisedofficial 🎦 Subscribe to the official clips channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3O94sXcoZLpoHRzxH_YcTA 📨 Subscribe with email: https://eternalisedofficial.com/subscribe 📚 My personal library: https://eternalisedofficial.com/library 🎨 Access transcript and artwork gallery: https://eternalisedofficial.com/2023/05/25/the-psychology-of-the-fool/ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Recommended Reading ▶ In Praise of Folly https://amzn.to/436tosq ▶ King Lear https://amzn.to/3IwNkNg ▶ He: Understanding Masculine Psychology https://amzn.to/3BLnt0g ▶ Don Quixote https://amzn.to/3MKYbp7 ▶ The Idiot https://amzn.to/43d5I5J ▶ Ivan the Fool and Three Shorter Tales for Living Peaceably https://amzn.to/3OpeoBO ▶ Tarot and the Archetypal Journey: The Jungian Path from Darkness to Light https://amzn.to/45jCKms ▶ The Complete Grimms' Fairy Tales https://amzn.to/3MCUHE8 🎧 Prefer Audiobooks?

The Psychology of The Trickster

There is perhaps no figure in literature more fascinating than the trickster, appearing in various forms in the folklore of many cultures. Trickster is witty and deceitful. He is the timeless root of all the picaresque creations of world literature, and is not reducible to one single literary entity. Trickster tales have existed since ancient times, and has been said to be at the very foundation of civilisation and culture. They belong to the oldest expressions of mankind.

Tricksters are the breakers of rules, agents of mischief, masters of deceit, and boundary crossers. He is an agent of change, and is amoral, not immoral.

Trickster is at one and the same time creator and destroyer, giver and negator, he who dupes and who is always duped himself.

Psychologically, the trickster is an archetype, part of the collective unconscious. Trickster is everywhere, he is an eternal state of mind.

The integration of the trickster archetype allows us to go from being ruled by our own self-centred ego to a new way of living, in which one has integrity and relatedness. It allows us to become aware of our true emotions, behaviours, and thoughts, that our unconscious persona is hiding, and without which there is no individuation at all.
