Speaking Class Today at 8.30-10 p.m. Topic: Glass Menagerie Hi dear friends to those who do not know what we exactly wanna do, should say: We do not wanna talk about the story, I expect all of you guys watch or read the story before. We will talk about the plot of the story just a little then will go to the analysis of the characters and will answer to this questions: 1. Who do you think is the main character of the play—Tom, Laura, or Amanda? Why? Is the main character the protagonist? Is there an antagonist? 2 . Tom calls Laura “peculiar,” but Amanda bristles at this word. What is “peculiar” about Laura? 3. What might happen to Laura after Tom’s departure? What might happen to Amanda? 4. Discuss the symbol of the glass menagerie. What does it represent? Does it represent the same things throughout the play, or does its meaning change? 5. Do you think the fire escape is important in the play, what does it show? 6. Generally, plays do not have narrators. How does the fact that Tom is the narrator affect the style and content of the play? Would your appraisal of the events be different if there were no narrator? ________________________________________ Have you ever think to a physical deformity? What are its effects? All of us are struggling against the hopelessness that threatens our lives, what are its effect on our life? What are the solutions? As I teach in the class, we also wanna find these different parts in this story: According to Freytag, a drama is divided into five parts, or acts, which some refer to as adramatic arc: Exposition, Rising action, Climax, Falling action, and Dénouement. See you
