Mother And Sister Tells The Audience
1,626 words
From the beginning, the figure of the narrator
shows that Williams' play will not follow the
conventions of realistic theater. The narrator
breaks the conceptual 'fourth wall' of
naturalistic drama by addressing the audience
directly. Tom also tells us that he is going to
give the audience truth disguised as illusion,
making the audience conscious of the illusory
quality of theater. By playing with the theme of
memory and its distortions, Williams is free to
use music, monologues, and projected ...

concerned with the acquisition of new skills with
practice. This emphasis has been blended somewhat
with the field of motor control, so that the ideas
about the how skills are learned and particularly
how they are performed differently after practice
were an important emphasis. The concern has been
to understand the principles by which these new
skills were acquired and to develop theories that

Victim of the Heart Tennessee Williams masterpiece
A Streetcar Named Desire is being rightly referred
to as one of the most realistic plays in American
dramaturgy of twentieth century. Despite the fact
that plays plot is related to the social issues
that used to be actual in Americas South, after
the end of WWII, it would be wrong to suggest that
author saw this play as a tool of making a
political statement, on his part. We can say that
the key to understanding characters behavior needs

" We must come to see that human progress

(King, p. 160) Robert Blatchford would argue
differently about this statement, because he would
say that progress is pre-determined. As he would
say, progress will happen only if it is meant to
