Personal Narrative: A Streetcar Named Desire

I have never viewed Astronomy in this perspective before, but found it both interesting and challenging to think

The play A Streetcar Named Desire, was remade into a movie that was filmed in New Orleans. The film takes place in the 1950s with Blanche who moves in with her sister, Stella, and her brother in law, Stanley. The movie is about Blanche’s experience and eventually demise all in New Orleans.

Being in a light you’ve never seen scares you. Life is a real mystery that you can never solve, but can always learn from

2016. Many works of literature contain a character who intentionally deceives others. The character’s dishonesty may be intended to help or to hurt. Such a character, for example, may choose to mislead others for personal safety, to spare someone’s feelings, or to carry out a crime. Choose a novel or play in which a character deceives others. Then, in a well-written essay, analyze the motives for that character’s deception and discuss how the deception contributes to the meaning of the work as a whole.

In Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire, the characters are extremely well defined.  In fact, they are so well defined obtuse critics have characterized them as two-dimensional, but Williams drew them that way intentionally so as to underscore the flaws that make their characters so memorable.

Go online and search the word “light”. What’s seen there? 4,270,000,000 results of a boat-load of definitions and websites and most likely the sun, right? Slightly exciting, but the real magic happens when you click on images. There are dazzling pictures of space, glowing fires, destructing lightning bolts, and vibrant smiles on faces. Instead of asking what is seen, ask what is felt. One may feel many emotions: happiness, amazement, curiosity and much more. Despite the feeling though, it’s impressing. Not impressing as in admiration or respect, although that can be felt, but as in making an everlasting mark.

Greed and ambition cause the mind to rot, as exemplified by Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. The two spiral throughout the play, their minds consumed by guilt and gluttony, resulting in their downfall. Human nature encompasses the "behavioral traits of humankind" (Dictionary), with greed and ambition often intertwining. This is evident when Macbeth, a high-ranking soldier with respect for King Duncan, succumbs to greed and ambition upon hearing the prophecy from the three witches. His respect turns to dismay, leading him to the point of killing Duncan.

Desire – power and status. antithesis is death, moth, Stanley and Blanche, domestic violence, (chauvinistic), desire to be loved. She was bought to New Orleans literally by a streetcar that was named ‘Desire’, and also by desire in several other ways: her sexual desires and reliance on her body for pleasure meant her reputation and dignity were damaged at the Flamingo hotel and in Laurel where she was forced to leave her job as a school teacher, apparently taking an interest in younger boys; this kind of sexual desire is still something of a drive for her, yet she is not aware of its dangers; and her continuing desire, in an American Dream-like fashion, to re-find the gentility that Belle Reve and her dainty previous lifestyle beheld.

If an Infrared Light with a wavelength of 750 nm were to be observed by humans, they would not be able to because none of their cone cells are sensitive to this wavelength of light, in a similar manner that the blue cone cells weren’t sensitive to the 600 nm wavelength of light. It is only possible for the human brain to view lights that are absorbed by their photoreceptor cells.

There are nine types of heroes in this world, each of them with their own unique stories, plots, cliches etc. Among those is the classic tragic hero, one who is destined to fail no matter what. In a Streetcar Named Desire, the tragic hero is Blanche Dubois, an aging Southern Belle living in a state of perpetual panic about her fading beauty. In this essay it will be discussed what makes Blanche a tragic hero and how she compares to a typical tragic hero.

A tragic hero in literature is a type of character who has fallen from grace, where the downfall suggests feelings of misfortune and distress among the audience. The tragic flaw of the hero leads to their demise or downfall that in turn brings a tragic end. Aristotle defines a tragic hero as “a person who must evoke a sense of pity and fear in the audience. He is considered a man of misfortune that comes to him through error of judgment.” The characteristics of a tragic hero described by Aristotle are hamartia, hubris, peripeteia, anagnorisis, nemesis and catharsis which allows the audience to have a catharsis of arousing feelings.

The play A Streetcar Named Desire, by Tennessee Williams, is a play about a woman named Blanche Dubois who goes to live with her sister after she loses her home in Mississippi. Between the hardships of her previous life and the way she is treated now, she is not in a good way by the time the play ends. She basically has a mental breakdown. There are three stages of Blanche’s mental state. She lives in a fantasy, Mitch rejecting her, and Stanley raping her, Blanche is mentally unstable by the end of this ply.

Smartphones or cell phones have become an essential gadget in the day to day lives of almost everyone who can afford one for themselves. For high school and college students, a life without a smartphone is unimaginable because it has become their portal to an active social life. If they refrain themselves from sifting through the hundreds of Facebook updates, Tweets, Instagram photos or Snapchats every hour, they 'll soon end up being left behind. This urges students to frequently check their smartphones even while they are in classrooms. With smartphones in their hands, a number of gaming applications, text messaging, email, social media applications and other websites compete for their attention, grabbing their attention away from the lectures on which they are supposed to be focusing. The instructors are also confronted with an additional burden to keep their students focused and engaged. This is something that I see around me all the time and thus, I was intrigued when I came across the following two articles:

Since light is such a basic part of our existence, we should have a basic
