1.1 A Survey on Tennessee Williams’ Life and His Works

Tennessee Williams not only had a powerful influence on the development of American drama, but also is today acknowledged as one of the most accomplished playwrights in the
history of English speaking theater. Through all his life he wrote twenty-five full-length plays, more than forty short plays and a dozen produced (and unproduced ) screenplays and of which, nine plays were adapted for the cinema. Williams received virtually all of the top theatrical awards for his works of drama, including several New York Drama Critics' Circle awards, a Tony Award for best play for The Rose Tattoo (1951), the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for A Streetcar Named Desire (1948) and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955). In 1980 he was honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Jimmy Carter.
Tennessee Williams was born of English, Welsh and Huguenot descent, in Columbus Mississippi, the second child and the first son of Edwina and Cornelius Coffin (C.C.) Williams. His father was a hard-drinking traveling shoe salesman who spent most of his time away from home.

As a small child Williams suffered a bout of diphtheria which nearly ended his life and left him weak and virtually confined to his house during a period of recuperation that lasted a year. At least in part as a result of his illness, he was less robust as a child than his father would have wished. Cornelius Williams was a descendant of east Tennessee pioneer stock (hence Williams’ professional name) and a man prone to use his fists. He disdained his son’s effeminacy and persistently called him “sissy” and “Miss Nancy”. However, Williams’ mother, Edwina Dakin, the beautiful high-strung daughter of the rector, represented the gentility of the “Southern belle”. The family life soon became a battle of opposites, which had a life-long impact on Williams’ life and works. Naturally Williams got the heritance of a continuing struggle between the flesh and the spirit from his parent, as he once said “Roughly there was a combination of Puritan and Cavalier strains in my blood which may be accountable for the conflicting impulses I of
