  • Arnold Wesker'ın Chicken Soup with Barley
    Atatürk Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi 2011 15 (2): 133-145 The Legacy of Communist Idealism Contested in Chicken Soup with Barley by Arnold Wesker: Political Imperative upon the Personal and Subverted Binary Opposites Erdinç PARLAK (*) Abstract: A dramatic dismantling will surely show that Arnold Wesker’s early plays represent the most amiable contestation of the New Left and the new conditions with the surprising yet desired success of the Labour. In early post-war years, Britons anachronistically hold the myth of the long Edwardian summer and thus reconnect with peace after the Great Wars. Unfortunately, though, the repressed memories of Wars haunt the writings and the aura of the age. That’s why in Wesker’s accounts, especially in his early corpus, Wars work double shift reminding us the hopes of the new generation and their disillusionment after the failure of the Labour. With this background in mind, our study tries to enlarge the theme of communist idealism and disappointment contested in Wesker’s Chicken Soup with Barley. In this play, an angry young man through and through and a representative playwright of the first wave in post-war British drama, Arnold Wesker poignantly shows how politics works as an imperative upon the private and the personal and it is also the sexual politics that Wesker contests and subverts. These two issues further serve for his handling of ethnicity (Anglo-Jewry), class (proletariat) and gender (binary opposition). Key Words: Arnold Wesker, communist idealism, subverted binary opposites, sexual politics, Anglo-Jewry, proletariat Arnold Wesker’ın Chicken Soup With Barley (Arpalı Tavuk Çorbası) Oyununda Komünist İdealizm Mirası: Birey Üzerindeki Siyasi Zorunluluk ve Bozulan İkili Karşıtlıklar Özet: Dramatik bir çalışma Arnold Wesker’ın ilk oyunlarının, İşçi Partisi‘nin beklenen fakat şaşırtıcı başarısıyla gelen yeni dünya düzeni ve Yeni Sol hareketinin en hafif ve yumuşak tanıklığını gösterecektir.

A Neal Street Co-Production with Carnival / NBC Universal and Thirteen for BBC STRICTLY EMBARGOED UNTIL 3 MAY 2016 Synopses Henry VI Part I Henry V is dead, and against the backdrop of Wars in France the English nobles are beginning to quarrel. News of defeat at Orleans reaches the Duke of Gloucester, the Lord Protector, and other nobles in England. Henry VI, still an infant, is proclaimed King. Seventeen years later the rivalries at Court have intensified; Gloucester and the Bishop of Winchester argue openly in front of the King. Rouen falls to the French but Plantagenet, recently restored as the Duke of York, Exeter and Talbot pledge to recapture the city from the Dauphin. Battle commences and the French, led by Joan of Arc, defeat the English. Valiant Talbot and his son John are killed. Warwick and Somerset arrive after the battle to join forces with the survivors and retake Rouen. Somerset woos Margaret of Anjou as a potential bride for Henry VI. Plantagenet takes Joan of Arc prisoner and she is burnt at the stake. Gloucester protests but still Margaret is introduced as Henry's queen.
