Waiting for Godot

This work interprets the text of the play Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett in a Post-Structuralist perspective to understand its complex relationships with the late modernist bourgeois ideology. In an effort to look for the signification of contradictions within the text of the play and its complex relationships to the late modernist bourgeois ideology one can actually make a choice to unfold vigorous theoretical energies of the Post–Structuralist Althusserian Marxist theory of decentred text and Derridean Deconstructionism. The research based upon Post-Structuralist Althusserian Marxist and Derridean Deconstructive reading of “Waiting for Godot” is new innovative and useful interpretation for readers and scholars on the subject in many respects. However it concludes that the text’s conflict and disparity of its meanings reveals its unspoken portions or the non-saids which the late modernist bourgeois ideology has suppressed in its own way. Therefore the difference conflict and contradiction of text’s final meanings are flux contradictions silences absences and unspoken portions of the text which show its complex relationship to the bourgeois ideology.
