ACKNOWLEDGMENIS —to> We are greatly indebted to Enikö Sepsi and the Käroli Gäspär University ofthe Reformed Church in Hungary for hosting our 2017 Samuel Beckett Working Group meeting and facilitating the birth of Influencing Beckett / Beckett Influencing. Ihis book would simply not exist without their encouragement and support. Itis also a pleasure to acknowledge our gratitude to the Embassy of Ireland and their generosity, which was a significant contribution to the successful launch of our meeting. We truly appreciate that the Embassy has recognized the importance of this special event and its professional and scholarly benefits. Finally, we are grateful to all our contributors for their hard work, devotion and patience as, over the course of the years, this book has materialized. The final editing rounds have coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic crisis that has hit the world and changed our lives entirely. We are especially thankful to the proofreader Bernard Adams and all our authors for their cooperation and availability even at the worst oftimes.
