  • A Transcultural Perspective on the Casting of the Rose Tattoo
    RSA JOU R N A L 25/2014 GIULIANA MUS C IO A Transcultural Perspective on the Casting of The Rose Tattoo A transcultural perspective on the film The Rose Tattoo (Daniel Mann, 1955), written by Tennessee Williams, is motivated by its setting in an Italian-American community (specifically Sicilian) in Louisiana, and by its cast, which includes relevant Italian participation. A re-examination of its production and textuality illuminates not only Williams’ work but also the cultural interactions between Italy and the U.S. On the background, the popularity and critical appreciation of neorealist cinema.1 The production of the film The Rose Tattoo has a complicated history, which is worth recalling, in order to capture its peculiar transcultural implications in Williams’ own work, moving from some biographical elements. In the late 1940s Tennessee Williams was often traveling in Italy, and visited Sicily, invited by Luchino Visconti (who had directed The Glass Managerie in Rome, in 1946) for the shooting of La terra trema (1948), where he went with his partner Frank Merlo, an occasional actor of Sicilian origins (Williams, Notebooks 472). Thus his Italian experiences involved both his professional life, putting him in touch with the lively world of Italian postwar theater and film, and his affections, with new encounters and new friends. In the early 1950s Williams wrote The Rose Tattoo as a play for Anna Magnani, protagonist of the neorealist masterpiece Rome Open City (Roberto Rossellini, 1945). However, the Italian actress was not yet comfortable with acting in English and therefore the American stage version (1951) starred Maureen Stapleton instead and Method actor Eli Wallach.

  • Interchapter Ii: 1940–1969
    INTERCHAPTER II: 1940–1969 Melissa Sihra Lady Augusta Gregory died in 1932 and from that period the Abbey Theatre consisted of an all-male directorate – Yeats, Kevin O’Higgins, Ernest Blythe, Brinsley MacNamara, Lennox Robinson and Walter Starkie. Blythe, an Irish-language revivalist and politician, would now remain on the inside of the Abbey for many years to come. Issues of artistic policy remained primarily within Yeats’s domain, but with his death in 1939 the position of power was open and Blythe took over as Managing Director in 1941, remaining in that post until 1967. Earnán de Blaghd, as he preferred to be known, espoused a conser- vative ethos and the board as a whole was highly restrictive artist- ically. While the work of a significant number of women dramat- ists was produced during these decades (see Appendix pp. 223–4), this period in the Abbey’s history is associated predominantly ‘with kitchen farce, unspeakably bad Gaelic pantomimes, compulsory Irish and insensitive bureaucracy’.1 The move from the 1930s into the 1940s saw the consolidation of Éamon De Valera’s Fianna Fáil administra- tion. Bunreacht na hÉireann (The Irish Constitution) was established in 1937, the same year that Samuel Beckett moved to Paris. During this time women activists sought political representation and equal rights as citizens of the Irish Free State, particularly with regard to the 1932 marriage bar. In 1938 Hannah Sheehy-Skeffington, a prolific feminist campaigner and member of the Women’s Graduates’ Associ- ation, argued that the constitution was based on ‘a fascist model, in which women would be relegated to permanent inferiority, their avoca- tions and choice of callings limited because of an implied invalidism as the weaker sex’.2 A fully independent Republic of Ireland came into being in 1949, in a decade that was framed by De Valera’s patriotic speech: ‘The Ireland that we dreamed of’.

  • The Quest for Freedom in Tennessee Williams' the Rose Tattoo And
    Novita Dewi The Quest for Freedom in Tennessee Williams’ The Rose Tattoo and Sweet Bird of Youth Novita Dewi English Language Studies, Sanata Dharma University [email protected] Abstract This paper examines the interface of economic hardship, sexual repression, and fear of aging in Tennessee Williams’ plays of the 1950s. Set in modern capitalist society of America, The Rose Tattoo (1955) and Sweet Bird of Youth (1959) depict the characters who are thwarted in their search for freedom that can be equated with the celebration of material prosperity and eternal youth. Using Eric Fromm’s view of freedom-as-frightful in modern society, the discussion will reveal the entrapment of self-deception in the characters’ unrealistic hope to stay young and productive in a commercialised society where sex is a commodity. Keywords: economic hardship, sexual repression, fear of aging Introduction all absorbed in a pursuit of freedom, and this aspect has not been well documented. Numerous critics have labelled Throughout his plays, Williams portrays Tennessee Williams an erotic writer and a characters whose sex drive is born largely out disciple of D. H. Lawrence because of his of their desire to free themselves from other intense preoccupation with sex in most of his restrictions. Psychoanalysis assumes that the plays. Hirsch (1979: 4), for example, says that urge for sexual action is inextricably linked to Williams was a “confused moralist”, who the drive for power which is often believed that sex was something like “grace”, synonymous with freedom (Benson, 1974: and at the same time “impure”. In discussing 211). Thus freedom is related to the ability to Sweet Bird of Youth, Falk (1961) contends achieve one’s goal, one’s happiness, and one’s that Williams’ creativity began to decrease pleasure; and sex is only one instance of with the appearance of this sexually expression and fulfilment on the road to obsessive play.
