Analysis of allusions to popular culture in Harold Pinter's Old times : graduation thesis = Analiza aluzij na popularno kulturo v drami Stari časi Harolda Pinterja : diplomsko delo
Gornik, Lidija, 1980-
The diploma paper examines some of the allusions that are made by the characters in the play Old Times. The analysis of popular culture is based on literary and internet sources, as well as various ...documentaries, therefore providing the historical background of the songs, films and public figures mentioned in the play. The work discusses how Harold Pinter used the allusions to the songs as a technique of the musical and as a homage to Noël Coward; why the film Odd Man Out is important and how its actors resemble the characters in the play; and also, how Pinter used the symbolism of W. B. Yeats, Greta Garbo, Orson Welles and Emily Brontë to depict the characteristics of his own characters. On the one hand, the allusions in Old Times are a hint towards the understanding of the play; on the other, they can be seen as Pinter’s in-jokes, comprehensible only to those who are familiar with them. The allusions were written for posterity to study and are Pinter’s tribute to old times.
