性爱——布兰奇毁灭的催化剂——浅析田纳西·威廉姆斯的《欲望号街车》

摘要

Blanche in Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire is a tragic figure. Her tragedy doesn't only lie in her losing previous social status and plantation in concrete, but also means that she is mentally displaced because of the loss of these. Vanity leads to her mental destruction step by step, and during this process, sex is the catalyst that can't be neglected.%在田纳西·威廉姆斯的作品<欲望号街车>中,女主人公布兰奇是一个悲剧人物.她的悲剧不仅指她失去了庄园和先前的社会地位,更指她由于失去这些而造成的心理错位.虚荣导致她一步步走向心理崩溃,而在此过程中,性爱却是不可忽视的催化剂.
