Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Wuppertal, course: Selected American Plays, language: English, abstract: In this paper I want to pay special attention to what I titled ¿the two faces of Blanche DuBois¿: she pretends to be innocent and good while she actually has a very striking past implying death, unhappy sexual relationships and alcoholic abuse, which she wants to hide from other people and which causes her to be on a desperate quest for somebody who sees her as something special and who unconditionally loves and protects her. In my analysis of Blanche DuBois I am going to observe her outer appearance, her behavior concerning men and I am going to discuss the meaning of different themes in the play such as bathing, light or alcohol.
