1) This Painting presenting clear cut image the play of ‘ Waiting
for Godot’. We See in the play that there are three setting like “ The
Country Road, A Tree and Evening”. In this paining we see that one
painting is suggest that the sun has rising it means they have Hope that
god will come and the another Painting is suggest that the sun has
setting it means that they know that The ultimately truth of the life is
the ‘Death’ and they known that our journey somewhere end and “our
Aatma merge to Parramatta “. They are waiting for death. We can see on
one side there is a barren tree because they both are immature in his
nature and on the other side a grown tree (full of green leaves) ,its
connected with his spiritual satisfaction.
2) In the act 1 the
Tree has barren so its connected with Hopelessness and nothingness of
his life and in act 2 The Tree become grown tree its suggest that both
of them understand the ultimate truth of the life is ‘’ DEATH’’. So both
of them get spiritual satisfaction of his nature.
3) Here i interpret that
The Moon – Life ( hope)
The Night - Death
In both Acts, Evening falls into night and moon rises so its clearly
show that they have hope that godot will come and godot fulfills our
desire but at the end both of them understand that the ultimate truth
of life is death and we all are waiting for death.
4) The director
feels the setting with some debris with appropriateness. Through the
debris director wants to shows the fragmentation of life and nothingness
of life. the debris gives some positive sign that one day our body
will turned out from the ashes. so the director gives sign of death
and immortality of the things.
5) At the begging of the play the
Estragon said that “Nothing to be done”. it means that they are
constantly repeating same thing and they are waste our time to wait for
godot and its uselessness.
6) Yes, I agree that the play waiting
for godot is positive play and its gives deep philosophical thinking
about hope – home – salvation and at the end they understand that
concept of death
7) The two props like hat and boot has play
significance role in the play .at the begging of the play we see that
Vladimir wearing hat ,its gives sign of his intellectuality( mind) and
Estragon is trying to take of his boots,so its connected his physical
strength( body).
8) Yes, it is true that the lucky blindly
follow the order of his master. we see that he carries a heavy bags
,folding stool, a picnic basket and a greatcoat and he gives the rope of
his sedative and blind master, so here we see the a postcolonial
mindset that he able to escape of those place but he given the whip of
his master it means that the slave do not wants to change of his
mentality, here we apply the master-slave mentality in this play that
the master become more master and slave become more slave . here i give
the example of the play like ‘’ The hairy ape”. here i interpret that
Pozzo- materiality
Lucky- Spirituality
9)
According to me, Godot is meant to suggest the intervention of
supernatural agency or whatever he stands for a mythical human being
whose arrival is expected to change the situation and its save our life
and fulfills our wish. Both of them waiting for god may be they want to
free from some pain like physical pain( Vladimir)and mental pain(
Estragon).
10) The subject of the play is not
Godot but waiting”. I do agree with the point of Martin Esslin. The act
of waiting is essential and characteristic aspect of the human
condition. we always wait for something so here the godot is simply
present the objectives of our waiting for an event, a things, a person
and may be death
11) During watching this play we also discussed
on this things .Yes play can better be read than viewed because reading
is the best way to understand the things. reading of things that comes
with lots of idea , it is also increasing the thinking ability of
reader.
12) At the time When the Estragon and Vladimir are
playing game with their hat they both of are puts hats to each other
heads so they both of them doing stupid thing because they are passing
their time because both of them waiting for godot and This sequence is
my favorite of the play.
Episode of Master - slave is carefully
crafted one. Both Lucky and Pozzo come in both the acts. Pozzo beats
Lucky, treats him roughly, calls him 'pig'. Vladimir is challenging
through questions where as Estragon on the other side makes fun, creates
laughter on the stage. the long speech of Lucky is also wonderful. Even
the boy comes, is confusing that whether it is the same boy or not. The
dialogues between Vladimir and boy are short. boy mostly replies in Yes
or No. and sometimes don’t give any answer. and Estragon remains busy
in eating & sleeping is also meaningful

confusing that whether it is the same boy or not. the dialogues between

13) Yes, I feel the effect of
existential crisis or meaninglessness of human existence in the
irrational and indifference Universe during screening of the movie. Here
the Existentialism is emphasis the notions of anguish,
freedom,emotion ,individuality and passion of human life. in the middle
of the act 2 we read the dialogues between Estragone and Vladimir like
Estragon: - Let’s go.
Vladimir: - We can’t
Estragon:- Why not?
Vladimir :- We’re waiting for Godot.
In
these dialogues we see that they doing meaningless work and the outcome
of his work is nothing and they repeating same thing. We see that time
has passes but they are constantly waiting for godot.
14)
Both of them decided that we are hang ourselves but Vladimir said that
godot will come tomorrow so we will hang ourselves tomorrow. the man
commit suicide it means that he doing something wrong in his life and he
wants to free from the all suffering that why he commit suicide.
According to Christianity the living of life is most agenda of the
Christianity and “The commit suicide is an individual act”. Here we give
the example of Ophelia in the play Hamlet. in the play we see that the
priest refuses to do the burial ceremony of the Ophelia because she
commit suicide so according to Christianity the commit suicide is a
sin.
15) We read politically the play,
Vladimir - Russia; Estragon - France; Pozzo - Italy and Lucky – England
then Godot can be considered as Germany because its connected with
somehow war or may be with Hitler.
16) We see
master and slave mentality in this play .the slave Lucky has also know
that his master is bind but he follow all the order of his master. so he
able to leave that place but he did not do such thing .so we said that
the slave has don’t change our mentality. So we cannot clearly point
out the connection of Ireland and England for the play.
17)
Act- 1
BOY: - What am I to tell Mr. Godot, Sir?
VLADIMIR: Tell him . . . (he hesitates) . . . tell him you saw us. (Pause.) You did see us, didn't you?
Act – 2
BOY: What am I to tell Mr. Godot, Sir?
VLADIMIR:
Tell him . . . (he hesitates) . . . tell him you saw me and that . .
(he hesitates) . . . that you saw me. (Pause. Vladimir advances, the Boy
recoils. Vladimir halts, the Boy halts. With sudden violence.) You're
sure you saw me; you won't come and tell me tomorrow that you never saw
me!
This change in conversation from “Us” to “Me” suggests two
things first is Vladimir has become self-centered and another is being
individual and leaving ego behind as psychologically Vladimir suggests
id and Estragon suggests ego.
Thank you ,sir
