Construing time as blank signs in Waiting for Godot
Abstract Story time and narrative time are two interrelated issues in the research of drama. In Waiting for Godot, mere explorations in the perplexing systems of story time cannot pin down the signifieds of time, while incontiguity and quiescency of narrative time highlight the theme “Existence of time is meaningless”. The contradictory and paradoxical co-existence of story time and narrative time contributes to the construing “the void of ambiguous signifieds” and “the void of ambiguous signifiers” of time as blank signs.
