A Study of T. Williams' plays In the light of Kristevan Subjectivity

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring Julia Kristeva's theory of subjectivity, this research delves into three iconic plays by Tennessee Williams. It reveals how characters strive to break free from societal norms, only to find that their rebellion leads to a loss of their own identities. The analysis highlights their failures to escape the constraints of the "father realm," resulting in societal labels such as "drunk," "insane," and "crippled." Ultimately, the characters' attempts at liberation are shown to be futile, as they remain trapped within or ostracized from society.
