游戏式的对话与对抗——品特戏剧谈

Game-like Conversation and Conflict——Analysis of Pinter's Plays

品特戏剧的主题是着眼于人类的生存处境,总是处在确定与不确定之间,但又无法逃避的威胁之下。他经常写一些身份和来路不明的人,场景限制在某人房间里,而事实真相总是隐匿的。他试图用这些离奇悖理的情节使人物处于异己的环境之中,彼此聋子似的各自讲些互不沟通的话题来表现人们生存的荒诞。

The theme of Pinter＇s plays is mainly eoneerned about the living condition of human kind and the balance of certainty and uncertainty. The unavoidable threat can only be understood from the relationship of man and his outside world. In his plays, he always portrays those whose identity is not clear and his setting is confined to a certain room and the truth is always hidden. He tries to set his characters in an absurd environment by using these odd plots, letting then speak irrelevantly to each other to show the absurdity of people＇s living.
