Title

Women characters in pinters play

Abstract

This paper examines five female characters from the British dramatist Harold Pinter’s five works, putting them in the sense of depicting “ The Femine. ‘’Pinter female characters must be seen not only in the tradition of stereotypical portraying women, but also in the light of the patriarchal structures they face-male domination, male gaze and male bonding. The second chapter background to discuss female characters- reasons for doing so are provided and the idea of a woman is introduced as the other . This concept led to women being stereotyped and subsequently misrepresented in the fiction. The traditional wife/whore dichotomy is explored. The chapter also discuss the aspects of on –stage representation with reference of drama. The third chapter involves close reading of the plays by Pinter – the Homecoming, the Birthday party , Betrayal and old times. The position of female characters are discussed in relation to the structure of power which they attempt to abolish. The chapter argues that although they achieve it, success as such does not challenge the patriarchal system. The fourth chapter focuses on Pinter’s understanding of the Czech stage. This describes the past of the staging’s, with a particular focus on two productions that took place long before the political change and were seen as threat to the official regime. It also analyzes two contemporary Betrayal stages in Divadlov celetne focusing on the female roles in these productions. In conclusion it is mentioned that the fictional woman does not release Pinter’s works. Even though the female characters challenge the patriarchal structure fighting for them in the world , it’s patriarchal world they can’t escape or alter, so they have to play according to their rules. Thus , although patriarchal deconstruction is a part of Pinter’s deconstruction of the dominant power, it is never fully accomplished.
