Guest Lara96 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Hey guys, I am doing A streetcar named desire in English Language and Literature and my teacher has set me with some homwork which I am struggling with. This is what she gave me:Tennessee Williams assigns color imagery to many of the characters in the play "A Streetcar Named Desire." Describe how his use of this literary device adds depth to the character development using specific examples from the text. Does anyone have an idea? I need a quick answer!Thanks Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ib-dying Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 You could say something about how Blanche always wears white especially in the first scene when she arrives wearing white to feign her purity and innocence. Apart from that I'm not really sure sorry! Tell me if you come up with something though Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simran Taneja Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 This is probably very late but you could also comment on how Stanley is said to dress in gaudy colors all the time showing how loud and outspoken his character is.Along with this you may comment on the fact that Blanche's muted tones and Stanley's gaudy colors (at least with respect to their dressing) further brings out the conflict between the charactersHope this helps Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
