By contrast, Blanche may be guilty of bigotry in her treatment of Stanley but it is defensive behavior motivated by fear and confusion, not deliberate cruelty.

Stanley is the raw immigrant type, whose animalistic behavior is untempered by the cultured refinement that ...

This essay deals with the notion of naturalism in Tennessee Williams’ play A Streetcar Named Desire.

In the mid-nineteenth century classical school of political economy was in crisis, as its theory was based on the interpretation of cost values and could explain some of the pressing problems of the economy.

It is difficult to pinpoint where the decline of modern journalism began to slide down the perilous chute towards sensationalism and garbage news, but what is certain is that at this current time the industry needs a new start.

The Romans, by contrast, put their gods on a pedestal and shifted the blame to the mortals. The writings of Hesiod and Ovid reflect these differences, depicting the actions in a perfect light ...
