Madam Butterfly

I believe that Pinkerton is your average one track minded American but in some ways I believe that he does love madam butterfly I think that the peer pressure on him from his friends and family back in America are what drives him to marry an American woman besides what he said about marrying an American woman on the marriage contract.
Butterfly is a naive young woman who was willing to believe that Pinkerton would return with love for her and her son. I feel like she should have forced herself to live for her son at the least
I feel like the opera tells us that the United States was a place of dreams for foreigners, it seems like madam Butterfly’s ideas on America were a little farfetched. Gauging by Pinkerton's attitude toward marrying a n on American woman prove that America was a aristocratic society at this point because they value purity and money much more highly than madam Butterfly’s family does.

Vanessa

This play is a triffic example of dramatic irony because the auidence knows that erica is preagnet with vanessas husbands baby and vanessa cannot for the life of her figure out why erica wants to kill herself. it intensifys the seen becausee it causes the auidence to wonder if or when vanessa will find out about the aboration living inside erica.
i believe that the original reason vanessa had the mirrors draped because she is depressed by love the text says that she has "arrested time" i feel like this means that she has become so cought up in the tims she spent with her past lover that she cannot stand to see herself age.

"must the winter come so soon" i believe that the author of this play chose a "hungrey deer" to intensify the idea that erica is hungry due the unborn child she so desperatly hides from the world. i also feel that "frozen owl" is a metaphore for erica herself she is frozen with feer and knows not what to do in her dire situation. when erica says "neither daun nor sunset" she is refering to the time stop that hapens when something happes to a person that is indede horrible in there view. time seems to stop when someone hits depression and the cold that invlopes a person slows time and a minor muniet becomes ten years. poor erika has fallen into a depression due to her unrequeted love for Anatol and the child she hides and doesnt want. and the depression has made her world wintercold.
