Essay aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Didaktik für das Fach Englisch - Literatur, Werke, Note: 1,3, Eberhard-Karls-Universität Tübingen (Seminar für Englische Philologie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The character of Blanche from Tennessee Williams’ play A Streetcar Named Desire is on the run. In the beginning the reader does not know whether she flees from an unsatisfied life, from an inconvenient past or even from a crime; she could be either culprit or victim or possibly both at the same time. She prefers shadow to light, is full of feelings of guilt, betrays her own sister and lies to everybody who surrounds her. Could such a character possibly be considered a victim?
