Caryl Churchill's A number: multiple personalities in contemporary tragedy

Caryl Churchill's A number: multiple personalities in contemporary tragedy

Shilova Yevgenia

Статья научная

The article dwells on Caryl Churchill's view of human identity as reflected in the play A Number. The main plot features a number of the protagonist's clones becoming aware of their «copy» status. However, analysis of the piece reveals that the ethics of cloning is not the playwright's major focus. Churchill is rather concerned with the very mechanism of self-definition and the features making every individual unique in the epoch of copies and consumerism. The writer puts forward the idea that the difficulty of self-identification nowadays is probably caused by distorted interpersonal relations and the destruction of family ties.
