Repetition For Emphasis

Waiting For Godot, written by Samuel Bekett, has been a tougher read for me personally. Although, I should not say it has been a tougher read, per say, but tougher to grasp. Maybe I am just not quite trained enough on interpreting scripts. This is my analysis of Waiting For Godot. The book itself seems as if to be filled with many repeated phrases. For instance. the continual taking on and off of Estragon’s boots. Also the same phrases are repeated like, “like the leaves” and “circus”.
This story reminds me of a phrase my friends made up in middle school called “repetition for emphasis”. In the beginning of the story Vladimir is talking about the different accounts of the story of Jesus’ death and the two thieves beside him. He goes to explain his own question. Why are the stories different? There is an obvious allusion between the repetitiveness of the gospels and this play, as if by repeating the ideas will somehow make them more concrete. Lucky also mentions this when he says his consecutive pipes taste less “sweet” than the first.
There is also the underlying theme of stagnicity. The entire play Vladimir and Estragon talk about “leaving”, but they never do. Each following scene or curtain they remain in the same spot, talking about the same things, asking the same questions, and wanting to leave the same way. There is almost a sense of never leaving that spot, especially with such heavy emphasis on repetition. Maybe even a slight fear of change. These themes seem very weighty, if I may, when considering such a short play. It makes me want to examine my own life and contemplate my own inconsistencies and repetitions. Also it makes me want to root out the causes. Are my fears stemming from a resentment to change? Have I become apathetic to potentials that my life brings? But mainly I am faced with this question. Are my own repetitions for emphasis causing my traits to dull in the balance?
