MOLINA BAREA, María del Carmen. Space-Time Perception in the Works of Samuel Beckett and Alberto Giacometti. An. Inst. Investig. Estét [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.110, pp.49-75. ISSN 0185-1276.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iie.18703062e.2017.1.2590.

The present paper provides an analysis of the space-time perception within the artistic production of Samuel Beckett and Alberto Giacometti. It focuses on two works in particular: on the one hand, Beckett's TV play Quad I & II, and on the other, the text entitled "The Dream, the Sphinx, and the Death of T.", written by Giacometti. Both works will be studied according to Henri Bergson's notion of time, Hermann Minkowski's theory of a four-dimensional universe, and the schizophrenic view of space-time developed by Eugène Minkowski.

Palavras-chave : Beckett; Giacometti; Bergson; Minkowski; space; time; schizophrenia.
