as a caveman, as in
chapter 1 he is seen
coming home with
"raw meat" a
traditional activity of
hunting and gathering

sees by the "brilliant silk bowling shirt" he
wears and his "gaudy pyjamas". He is also very loud

brute, an animal and a caveman and she
sees herself as intellectually superior to
Stanley

of intelligence and breeding...I
have those things to offer" (pg
93)

- The mere presence of
Blanche annoys Stanley and
he has a short temper with
her. Scene 3, pg 31. The
phonology created by the
imperative "Turn it off!"
shows his anger and
resentment towards

home

you from the start!" (scene 10)

- After the fight in scene 3, it is clear that
Stanley is remorseful and regrets his
actions towards Stella. The stage
directions "he falls to his knees" suggest

decision whether to forgive him or not.
This shows that Stanley genuinely cares
about Stella
- This role reversal is seen again through
the adverbs "slowly" and "clumsily"
when Stanley is trying to apologise to
Stella. Also the colloquialisms "Stell"
and "Honey" shows how he is using
terms of endearment to fix their
relationship

uncontrollable and
aggressive in their
relationship.

uses metaphoric language to present Stanley's
threatening behaviour. This declarative sentence
shows Stanley asserting him dominance
- "got to tolerate each others habits" (pg 41/42). The
verb "tolerate" shows how she almost blames
Stanley's anger on herself to avoid the fights and she
feels like she just has to get on with it
