Abstract:

There are two major, well-known operas based on plays of Tennessee Williams. He refused many times throughout his life to give permission for his play, A Streetcar Named Desire, to be set as an opera. It was not until the 1960s that he granted permission for Lee Hoiby to choose any of his plays as a basis for a new opera. Hoiby chose Summer and Smoke, a play which was written at approximately the same time as Streetcar. Lanford Wilson created the libretto for the opera which was given its premier in 1971 by the St. Paul Opera Association. In 1994 representatives of the Williams estate grante

Abstract:

Stereotypical gender roles have probably existed as long as human culture and are such a natural part if our lives that we barely take notice of them. Nevertheless, images of what we perceive as typically masculine and feminine in appearance and behavior depend on the individual’s perception. Within each gender one can find different stereotypes. A commonly assumed idea is that men are hard tough, while women are soft and vulnerable. I find it interesting hoe stereotypes function and how they are preserved almost without our awareness. Once I started reading and researching the topic of stereo

Ils n’hésitent plus à "se mettre en scène", c’est-à-dire à traiter avant tout leurs propres questions existentielles par l’intermédiaire des textes classiques, se libérant ainsi de toute pression exercée sur eux par les interprétations textuelles faisant autorité ou bien par les

Williams, highly praised for his expressionism, poetic realism and symbolism, is generally regarded as one of the greatest American dramatists. Symbols are, as Williams makes abundantly clear in his essays over the years, an integral part of his dramatic technique. As a master at weaving a tangled web of symbols, Williams endeavors to convey the profoundest meanings
