| dc.description.abstract | Albee takes the characters who are suffering in the absurd world. To show the suffering of the characters, he gives pain and agony to them. Through this, he wants to show the ruined lives of characters to highlight the existential angst of human beings. Human beings realise their existence only by scars and wounds. Here, he tries to explore the existential consciousness through the excessive use of anxiety given to the characters. The pain, torture and anxiety help characters to realise their real existence or identity, their use is highly constructive and constitutive. Through this constitutive anxiety, inThe Play About the Baby,Albee forces characters to think that life is not only pleasant but also a part of tragedy. | en_US |
