Viac o knihe

The play features a satirical take on power dynamics, focusing on Ubu, who is manipulated by his wife into committing regicide. It parodies Shakespearean themes while employing absurd and juvenile dialogue to convey deeper meanings. As a precursor to the Theatre of the Absurd, it critiques the complacency and greed of the ruling class. Jarry's work is part of a trilogy exploring "pataphysics," showcasing his innovative style and solidifying his role in the modernist movement. This edition includes translations by Beverley Keith and G. Legman.
