Harold Pinter’s the Caretaker as an absurd play and the view on life in Srimad Bhagavad Gita

Abstract

This study presents the absurdity of life in The Caretaker by Harold Pinter. His comedies are known as the comedies of menace. He has viewed that he had not composed those plays with a particular purpose and philosophy. His characters are filled with vitality in his plays. He rejected the naturalistic tradition of Henrik Ibsen. Srimad Bhagavad Gita reveals that the making of the world is perishable. Man’s body is made of five elements; earth, water, air, fire, and sky.
