HUMAN INTERACTION/DISCOURSE AS COMMUNICATION IN HAROLD PINTER'S THE HOMECOMING


The present article attempts an analysis of human behaviour as communication in Harold Pinter's. The Homecoming. Though, much has been written on the play from the communication and interactional point of view, most of it only focuses on the behavioural part of the characters. The ways in which they interact with each other reveals a significant part of their communication style. Based on the previous studies in the area, our approach depicts the pattern of human communication in a confined space. It also focuses on how characters behave with each other to convey their message. Pinter has, undoubtedly, shown in The Homecoming that how a certain type of interaction can convey a unique sort of dramatic communication.
