This paper is an attempt to give a comprehensive analysis of specific symbols in this play and to discuss how the misery and the inner world of the characters are disclosed through the remarkable use of symbols. Symbols are profuse in the play and they help to achieve a thematic importance when combined with the romantic realism that Williams favored at the beginning of his career. The thesis is made up of four parts. The first chapter gives a brief introduction of the playwright and the play. Also a literature review which states some scholars concerns in this play is given and in the second chapter, an elaborate analysis of the individual symbols such as names, colors, sound, language and other images in life applied in this play is presented. Chapter three is a thematic probe into the play based on the symbolic understandings of the characters. Finally, a conclusion is given to summarize symbolism in this play.

Introduction首行缩进4个字符Tennessee Williams was one of the most important and talented playwright of all history. One of his masterpieces, A Streetcar Named Desire, which was opened on Broadway in 1947, was an immediate success, catapulting him into the mainstream idolatry as an American playwright.By now, scholars have paid much attention to various aspects in A Streetcar Named Desire. For example, Fang Jun and Liu Nuoya probe into the mature of the dramatic technique the poetic realism through meticulous study on the symbolic and expressionistic writing techniques and the interrelations of them in The Glass Menagerie and A Streetcar Named Desire (23). In Desire, Death and Dementia, researches have been put into analysis of the protagonist with understanding of symbolism (杨晋, 2002: 36-38) . 中文作者全名, 时间: 页码二级标题:上下不空, 四号字,加粗2. Study of Individual Symbols2.1 On Names英文作者姓氏, 时间: 页码At the beginning of the play, readers are confronted with extremely obvious symbolic names of places. When Blanche arrives at her sisters place, she says, “They told me to take a street-car named Desire, and then transfer to one called Cemeteries and ride six blocks and get off at Elysian Fields.” (Williams, 1978: 471) Thus, it is possible he represents a cemetery for Blanche. Stanislaus is the name of a king of Poland. Clearly, Stanley is the king of his household.2.2 On ColorsWhen Blanche first appears, she is described as “daintily dressed in a white suit with a fluffy bodice, necklace and earrings of pearl, white gloves and hat”. (Williams 471) Blanches white suit and gloves which are the symbol of purity shows her desire for purity and suggests that she wants to forget her sordid past, to hide her inner sins and to stay as an image of a dainty old south beauty. This is very ironic because white also is the color which is the most easily stained and destroyed. 3. On Symbolic Understanding of CharactersA Streetcar Named Desire can be described as an elegy, orpoetic expression of mourning, for the Old South that died in the first part of the twentieth century. Alcoholism, depression, thwarted desire, loneliness, and insanity are all parts of this play. The character of Blanche Dubois is a vivid example of the use of symbolism throughout the play. Blanche is victim of her own self-delusions and Old South attitudes.3.1 Victim of Self-delusionsBlanche arrives in New Orleans as an arrogant, fragile, and ultimately crumbling figure. Clinging desperately to her self-delusion, unable to accept the savage reality of what has happened to her, and just as unable to comprehend how her sister Stella can endure her current living condition, Blanche is slowly losing her mind. Her desperate line, “I dont want realism! I want magic!” (Williams, 1978: 545) is a cry from the heart. She wishes to view life as one that is rose-colored and that goes along with her old-fashioned southern belle personality. The loss of her young husband Allan has caused her loneliness, sexual desire, and even certain signs of psychological instability. What Blanche does not realize is that she can not change the past through the present. Blanches youth is gone, and she tries to give the appearance of being as youthful and innocent as she once was, but her illusion can not last. As an epigraph to the play, Williams quotes from the poem “The Broken Tower”, by Hart Crane: And so it was that I entered the broken world To trace the visionary company of love, its voice An instant in the wind (I know not whither hurled) But not for long to hold each desperate choice.The use of this poem helps to express Williamss choice of theme in A Streetcar Named Desire. After Blanches young husband Allan Grey dies, she has entered a “Broken world” of fear, longing, and sorrow because of her simple desire to hear “the visionary company of love, its voice”, or tender, gentle words of love and appreciation from Stella and Mitch. However, these words are only “visionary”. The loss of Allan and the desire to “trace” or recapture her love lead her to make so many desperate choices. (Londre, 1997: 49)三级标题:上下不空,小四号字,加粗3.2 Victim of Social Circumstances3.2.1 Victim of the Old Southern CultureGiven Mitchs statement, it seems that Blanches bad sexual experiences and romantic delusions have been the source of her fall. Yet Williams depicts the fallen, Southern women as Blanche who is also a victim of societys rules. Before we see Blanches miserable life experiences and fall, lets first have a look at the south land she has lost. In The Mind of the South, Cash present us a description of the land which cultivates those old southern gentlemen and ladies. The warm pleasant climate and leisure rich life there give this land certain atmosphere of romance. The plantation owners can have their own way in their land and enjoy the harvest by the slaves labors. Thus, a spirit of indulging and pleasure seeking is cultivated. But at the same time, Cash points out that those old southern residents, especially women, are puritans that are sternly restricted by their value of morality. The economic structure of the plantation leaves women highly dependent on men because for a long time, they are detached from working and management of the plantation. Thus they cling to men or become toys that entertain and please men. On one hand, they should act and speak appropriately and be lady-like because of the puritan doctrines they believe, on the other hand, they have to get mens admiration and hearts in order to maintain their dependent position. Therefore, there is a mixture of Puritanism and hedonism in them(汪义群, 1992: 83). Clearly,we can see the contradiction of desire and soul in Blanche. 3.2.2 The Destruction of the Old South Genteel WorldA Streetcar Named Desire describes the cultural and social differences and the arising problems between two different “worlds”. On the one hand is the former “world” of Blanche DuBois, a woman of the Old South and on the other hand is the “world” of Stella and Stanley Kowalski, who belong to the working class and live in the downtown immigrant neighborhood of New Orleans.The Northern and Southern cultures at that time were acting against each other, mirrored in Stanley and Blanche. The setting of New Orleans is important to the play. The city is one of powerful contrasts: old French architecture and the new rhythms of jazz; a kind of old world refinement mixed with a sign of poverty and modern life; decay and corruption with the regenerative powers of desire and creation. The city is eternally in a state of mixture, a mix of the modern world and New Orleans confused history; in Americans eyes, New Orleans is also associated with desire and sexuality. From the beginning, the three main characters in this play are in a state of tension. Williams establishes that the apartment is small and confining, the weather is hot and oppressive, and the characters have good reasons to come into conflict. 4. ConclusionWhen the history of American theater is written for the 20th Century, Tennessee Williams is one of the most prominent names to be mentioned. He pushed the exploration of the human soul to the very limit in his work. Williams is fond of symbols and he successfully uses these varieties of symbols to help the audience to understand the play, especially in A Streetcar Named Desire. The symbolic use of images including names, colors, sound, language and other images in life in this play is the purest device Williams applies to resonate with the theme. The hidden ugliness from the past, both emotional and sexual neediness of Blanche and her fading beauty, vulnerability, and weakness are successfully revealed through the images such as light, bath, color whose symbolic functions have been specifically discussed in chapter two. The symbolic understanding of the characters comes to the conclusion that Blanche and Stanley are respectively the representations of the Old South and the New South and Blanches mental deterioration into madness and the triumph of Stanley are the sign of the destruction of the old south genteel world.论文正文字数为5000字。References姓氏逗号,名字实心圆点Williams, Tennessee.Times New Roman,三号,加粗,居中1 Londre, Felicia Hardison.
