A Street Car Named Desire- End

In the short story a native of America,it focuses on multiple stories and passages from different writers and on different authors. They all seem to write from the perspective focusing on Native american story telling and focuses more on the minority of this time period and how they do when put in the potion as the characters from a street car named desire. In the reading a Street Car named desire,towards the end of the book,there many changes in the plot. Mitch finds out that Blanche was lying to him about who she was and Blanche came out confessing the truth. Meanwhile Blanche is unaware that hr truth has already reached to Stella And Stanley. Stanley sees Stella as a threat and rapes her when gets the chance of having her alone as his way of revenge out drunkenness. Blanche's mental stat become completely ruined after this and she is put into mental care. Stella grows weary and mournful over the loss of her sister. The Story ending this way ends up being significant because it shows the character development of Blanche from the beginning of the story. It becomes intriguing to think about ,from a literary perspective,to think about how a high class ,exotic character ended up having a such a crucial and critical downfall in the end. No one excepted any of the characters in the story fall this way,Let alone a character like Blanche.However,the book is described to highlight intense ideas brute violence a sexual assault,as well as to present these topic bluntly.Even towards the end of the book,the idea of class and maintenance of a particular social class are still apparent. In the book,Blanche's perception on Stanley sheds a new kind of light on the term"class" in the play. Instead of wealth,class in this play measures the amount of civil behavior and gentleness of a person,specifically the characters. For example,Stanley would be considered,"low class" because of his brutish acts and lack of gentleness overall.This would explain not only why Blanche treats him the he does but why Stanley's lacking in wealth isn't commented on. This is not only the case with Stanley but other characters in the story. Specifically ,pertaining to Mitch,which is interesting to see because Mitch has the same level of wealth as Stanley,but yet Blanche falls in love with him because of his mannerism and polite ethics or in this case ,his "higher class." One might say it is Ironic that Blanche fell for Mitch almost there same way Stella fell for Stanley. Realism is found towards the end when Blanche is present to mental care after she is raped.This is realistic in a sense that it is the most sensible thing to do after a situation like that,especially considering how uncanny it was. We also see a lot of naturalism with Mitch.Despite how much he loves Blanche,he is still bound to this idea of morality and staying pure in a sense and it is because of this he turns down Blanche. The problem with social class is that people use it as a way to categorize a particular person and treat the them a certain way. This could be resolved by people not making it so apparent that they dislike someone for a particular reason. Only express your real felling when absolutely necessary

A street car named desire(sections 4-7)

The short story, "the open boat " is a story based on the author's own experience of a crew that gets shipwrecked. It takes in 1897, and uses constant ideas of imagery and descriptive wording to create realism in a sense that the reader knows exactly what is going on in the novel and feels like they are actually there to experience it.The book contains blunt and abrupt material in it like the previous short story but this one doesn't seem as violent. In the book,Street car named desire, the story more in depth about Blanche,and her interactions among other characters. It is presented to the read about Blanches's views to Stanley and how Stanley reacts upon. Stella puts herself in more denial of the situation. It becomes incredibly obvious that she is aware of her abusive relationship,how ever the story has not truly stated why she continues to be with Stanley.Like many of the other social issues shown in this play thus far,Class still seems to be a major one. Earlier it was stated that class depicted the interactions among different characters and how it would vary the way they treat each other. This idea ,however changes in the story. For example,Blanche,having more of a higher class,it would be expected that she would look down upon characters such as Stanley and his friends,and earlier on in the book, this is exhibited. But in the sections,4-7, Blanche is seen having a decent conversation with Mitch,a friend of Stanley who,compared to Blanche,is of lower class.There is in fact even a love interest presented between the two,which is later ruined by Stanley. It would appear that instead of seeing herself more than those of lower class,Blanche's class makes feel she is higher than those who are of low life living or those who act like savages and animals like Stanley,which would explain her view on him.Like the short story,the play still portrays lots of realism and short dialogue,except for long monologues in street car that are important for the plot development. The dialogue is most important because by analyzing what it means and why it's used you find out a lot about the character and their significance in the play. For example,Mitch is presented to use short and abrupt Dialogue. Most of his lines aren't long paragraphs unlike the other characters.. This says that Mitch is the "true Southerner' in the story,with no showing emotions,nor emotional appeal to any topics. Even when he was talking about his mother dying,he didn't sound or uneasy talking about it. It could be inferred that his significance in the play is to play the role as the "contented one" in the play,which is interesting due to the love interest that develops between him and Blanche.The idea of class defining the ability of people to connect with one another is a problem because it causes people like Stanley to act out the way he does.By being treated like a lower individual ,he ends up embracing that idea out of spite or by accident. In a way,this is how criminals are made,as scene in modern day society. This could be remedied if people weren't so quick to judge and let there pride down to accept new people in their lives.

A street car name desire post(Sections 1-3

An occurrence in owl creek bridge is a short story that is divided into 3 sections and take place in the different moments in time. Each section sums up a scenario of brutal acts and violence that took place in this area. A street car named desire was a play that was written in 1947 by Tennessee Williams. It takes place in the French quarter of New Orleans. The book is written in a way that comments on many social issues,each seen between the characters within the book and how they interact with each other. One of these issues is class. Throughout the first 3 sections within the play class seems to be a big contributor in terms of dialogue between the characters,especially with how they treat and view one another and certain topic. An example of this is found in the beginning in section 1. Section 1 introduces Blanche, a rich,eccentric,french woman,who came visit her sister,Stella.to add on with her being an iconic "rich girl",Blanche is described as over dramatic,and gentle.This idea is reviled a lot in her interaction with other characters. In the text it says," You must be Stanley. I'm Blanche. Stella's sister?Yes. Hlo. Where's the little woman. In the Bathroom.Oh.I didn't know you were coming to town. I-uh..Where you from Blanche. Why..I live in Laurel." The common back and forth between Blanche,and Stanley is somewhat bland and not very enlightening. If you read,you notice that this has some what something to do with the quick and timid responses Blanche makes to everything Stanley says.Instead of going a bit more in depth with the conversation,she keeps it as simple as possible. Stella seems timid around others,the more over dramatic part of her is seen more by her sister,Stella. In the text it says,"I know,I know. But you are the one that abandoned Belle Reve,not I!I stayed and fought for it,bled for it,almost died for it!" the way Blanche chooses to hysterically respond about this matter shows how she is "petite" and how she matches the description given on her. Since her character is someone with such high class,this kind of behavior is expected. This whole transaction showed class being a distinguishable difference for characters in the story and how they treat each other. In section one,because he is of lower class,Blanche looks down upon Stella's husband and bad mouths him to her. This could be a problem in the story because it can create conflict between characters and let discrimination of class break relationships in the story.In the story,the author uses regionalism in his text as a way to emphasis on certain scenes. The dialect,for example,,matches the mood of the scene and type of situation. In the scene Blanche meets Stanley, the short,emotionless conversation they have matches the bland mood of the situation. The problem with america at this time is that everyone is to discriminate and prideful of themselves and thus shut themselves away from people who they feel can't meet their standards. This can be prevented if people open up more and try to explore a different point of view rather than their own where class is concerned.

Drugs

According to dictionary.com the word addiction is defined as,"the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance, thing, or activity." I looked up the word on google to find that the first and only example on there for the word was an example about a guy who got arrested because of his drug addiction. The fact that the word addiction was in relation with drugs at all was no surprise for me. It's the perfect word to associate with people who use it. When you hear addiction one of the first things you think of is drugs,and we can thank society for that. Newbeginningsdrugrehab.org says,"Schools across the country take a strong stance on drug and alcohol use, however even with all of their efforts, there are various types of drugs that are available to high school and college students." In today's curriculum at an elementary school level, the goal that is tried to be implanted into the minds of little children is,the iconic hyperbole that has defined drugs to little kids since day one,"Drugs are bad." Teachings on drug usage to this kind of an audience is vague and simmered down to this level compatible to their understanding. Associating drugs with this negative term that will get the message of policemen,teachers and parents while not scaring these young ones for the rest of their lives.Tactics used to depict this are creating a superhero that looks down upon drugs,showing cartoon like commercials to kids advertising against the product,or simply just categorizing drugs as bad or unhealthy for you through child based ideals made specifically for that kind of audience to understand.When they reach that middle school level,they have more sense so they tend to go into depth. Middleschoolers are taught that there are different types of drugs and that they're certain ones to be careful of. They go into detail about overdose and why you should only take what your doctor prescribes you on. In high school,this ideal is continued to an interment level, one that assures the highschoolers make a final choice about drugs,whether they should take them like they were conditioned to since they were little,just to be on the safe side,or take their chances and go about there business on said topic. In short the topic of drugs has been brought to our society as a threat but enforce as if it is an option,letting us as member to society take upon it in ourselves to make these decisions about drugs. Compared to the world state, many people have their hands on drugs. Ironically, the topic that is enforced so harshly in some schools,is caused because of it's lack of enforcement in other places. According to bussinessinsider.com,their page on "Nearly Eight Years Into The Drug War, These Are Mexico's 7 Most Notorious Cartels", Th sinaloa cartel is the most dangerous cartel. The website also says,"The Sinaloa Cartel is the single largest and most powerful drug trafficking organization in the Western hemisphere.The Sinaloa is not a single hierarchical organization. Instead, it functions more as a confederacy of groups that are connected through blood, marriage, and regional relationships. Decisions for the group are ultimately made through board-of-directors-type mechanisms and not by a single leader." The fact that this problem has escalated so high in mexico as compared to anywhere else is really no surprise. Crime rate in mexico are very high and lack the proper ideals to keep a sustainable place to safely live in. According osac.gov,"The general crime rate in Mexico City is above the U.S. national average, and crime varies widely. Armed robberies, kidnappings, car thefts, credit card fraud, and various forms of residential/street crime are daily concerns. Thefts of the vehicle’s operating computer and sound systems are also common crimes. The low rate of criminal convictions contributes to the high rate of crime. Although Mexico employs strict gun-control laws, criminals are often armed with handguns (or knives)." In short they lack the essentials needed to meet the standards,which if this wasn't clear already,is our fault.We,as american citizens,have failed to share what we know about enforcing these laws to other societies. I found it very significant that When I typed in drug cartel and got mexico as a prime result. This not only reveal the origins of the very known stereotypes on mexico revolving around their rural society ,but it does reveal the vast difference between the enforcement on drugs there and the US. Our laws on this issue are so different and cared for,yet we're so close to one another.
