Describe in Detail One of the Many Strands of Postmodern Thinking That You Have Explored and Show How It Affects, or Is Inherent in, an Aspect of Your Own Field of Study, or an Aspect of Your Own Country and Culture.
Since the beginning of the twentieth century much European theatre has striven to engage the audience. Antonin Artaud’s Theatre of Cruelty is one of those attempts; he tries to make the viewer feel and react to the play in the same way that a plague can kill without destroying the organs; in other words, changing the minds of the audience in ways that logic cannot express (2001: 17). The purpose of this essay is to analyse Antonin Artaud’s use of language based on Derrida’s concept of performative language in his radio play To Have Done with the Judgement of God (1988), specifically "Tutuguri: The Rite of the Black Sun" as an opposition to logic. For this I will start with the definition of Derrida’s performative language and logic, and its relation to the Theatre of Cruelty of Antonin Artaud, continue with a brief description of the use of language in "Tutuguri: The Rite of the Black Sun," and finally I will try to understand how Artaud’s use of language in the radio play is an opposition to logic.
