“威胁喜剧”的标签虽然道出了英国戏剧家哈罗德·品特早期作品中弥漫的恐惧、危机情绪,却失于揭示品特戏剧的更深内涵。以福柯的权力理论为参照,《看管人》实质上是一部规训社会中权力与战争游戏的隐喻,它多层面探索了权力与个体、空间、身体的关系。 Although the label “Threatened Comedy” tells the perplexity and crisis of the early drafts of Harold Pinter, the British dramatist, he is out of touch with the deeper connotation of Pinterean drama. Taking Foucault’s theory of power as a reference, “custodian” is essentially a metaphor of the game of power and war in a disciplined society. It explores the relationship between power and individual, space and body at many levels.
