The Study of Chronotope and Heterolgossia in Eugene ONeill's The Iceman Cometh
Author(s):
Abstract:
Chronotope and heteroglossia are two significant terms in Mikhail Bakhtins dialogism. Although most of Bakhtins ideas are drawn into the study of novel, drama with its high potentiality for establishing dialogues between characters can create and maintain a new context for Bakhtinian studies. This article endeavors to use chronotope and heteroglossia as two analytical tools for studying Eugene ONeills much-acclaimed play The Iceman Cometh and by doing so provides a Bakhtinian reading of this play. Through chronotope, we can investigate the significance of time and place and their reciprocal effect in order to explain the main concepts which Eugene ONeill wished to deal with and convey. Also, heteroglossia shows why and how ONeill brought all his characters with different and at times opposing backgrounds together in one single saloon and allowed them to have a voice of their own; a voice which even the playwrights voice cant control or suppress.
