Abstract
In "Che Sciagura" Beckett uses the subversive attributes of dialogue to point out inconsistencies in the conservative political position regarding birth control in the developing Irish Free State. This largely overlooked, lesser known text not only positions Beckett in relation to issues current in Ireland at the time, but reveals his early use of the subversive aspect of dialogue, and provides insight into the more sophisticated subversion he develops subsequently in works such as "Three Dialogues" with George Duthuit.
