Alfred Jarry is regarded as one of the founders of modern avant-garde theatre Dada, Surrealism, Pataphysics, Theatre of Cruelty, the Absurd all owe a debt to Jarry.” (Encore) This volume contains his three classic Ubu texts: Ubu Roi, Ubu Cocu and Ubu Enchaîné. Through the lucid translations of Connolly and Taylor, the reader comes to realize that the violent and loathsome Ubu is Jarry’s dark metaphor for man in the modern age. As Ubu himself said, We shall not have succeeded in demolishing everything unless we demolish the ruins as well.”

Book Description Paperback. Condition: New. As irreverent of form as they are of middle-class mores, Jarry's Ubu Plays had a profound influence on the Dada and Surrealist movements and are considered the first absurdist dramas. The ribald and grotesque antihero Ubu so outraged the Parisian audience, with his scatological longings and corrupted French, that a riot erupted at the premiere of 'Ubu Rex' in 1896 (the year Andre Breton was born). This volume collects the Ubu trilogy. 148p. Seller Inventory # 2415281
