Commentary on Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie, discussing the significance of the glass unicorn and how it represents Laura Wingfield.
Write a 2-3 page commentary on Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie, discussing the significance of the glass unicorn and how it represents Laura Wingfield. Include at least 3 quotes from the play to support your discussion. See your Harbrace Essentials text for MLA guidelines on how to document quotes from a play (p. 111, example 12 – Poetry, drama, and sacred texts). Cite quotes by act, scene, and line number(s) separated by periods with no space before or after them. MLA places this citation in parenthesis after the quotation or sentence. The citation is not part of the quotation, so do not include it in quotation marks. EXAMPLE: Shakespeare presents the most famous soliloquy in the history of the English theater: “To be, or not to be . . .” (3.1.56-89). Since The Glass Menagerie is only a one act play, it is not necessary to put a number for the act in the citation. Simply document quotes from this play by scene and line number(s) (1.56-89). Please write your own ideas and do not look to the internet for papers or ideas. You cannot take someone else’s words and/or thoughts and claim them as your own. That is considered plagiarism, and plagiarism is considered cheating. Cheating will result in a zero for your final essay grade.
