Thank you very much. Every other posting went through just fine; this one kept being stopped out, a most frustrating experience. I know that the existentialists are not attractive to you as a group, but Ionesco's influence on other artists and intellectuals seems to me worthy of consideration.

After his [Ionesco's] death many authors, including Samuel Beckett, Arthur Adamov, N.F. Simpson, and Harold Pinter, expanded on his ideas. Pretty hard for Beckett to do, considering that he died in 1989, five years before Ionesco! <g> Beckett was also born earlier, and produced Waiting for Godot in 1949,before Ionesco had written his first play. And considering that both Beckett and Ionesco wrote in French, I would suspect that Beckett may have influenced the latter more than the latter influenced him.
