2) Scene 9, lines are intertwined with Blanche and Mitch's dialogue

3) Scene 2, final line; Scene 6, mentioned by Blanche]]> 2021-11-08 13:05:07 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874934755 1611151 https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874934999 1) She shows the multiracial population of 1940s post-war New Orleans, as well as the 'rough' aspect of the Quarter, in order to contrast with Blanche's delicate nature.

2) She is only seen in Blanche's fight with Mitch in scene 9 and repeats "Flores para los muertos, Corones para los muertos." Her presence here symbolises Blanche's realisation that she has lost everything, and the "flowers and crowns for the dead" are a bleak foreshadowing of Blanche's spiritual death at the end of the play.

3) The crying of "Red-hot!" at the end of scene 2 is symbolic of the male-dominated physical world that Blanche is thrust into when entering the Quarter.]]> 2021-11-08 13:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874934999 1611151 https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874935138 1) She doesn't actually contribute anything to the plot. Her purpose is primarily for the world-building and realism of 1940s post-war New Orleans.

2) She acts as a symbol of death and despair as Blanche's spiritual death at the end draws closer, and the ultimate effect of the climactic tragedy is foreshadowed.

3) Like the Negro woman, the Tamale vendor only exists for world-building, to show the intermingling of cultures in the Quarter, with tamales being a traditional Mesoamerican food.]]> 2021-11-08 13:05:16 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874935138 1611151 https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874935255 1) She is meant to represent the roughness of the Quarter, which contributes to the contrast and juxtaposition of someone like Blanche living there. She is meant to show the conflict between the Old South and the New South.

2) She is highlighting the theme of death and desire, as her presence and lines remind Blanche of the haunting memory of her ex-husband's suicide.

3) The vendor's presence doesn't really develop much thematically, however, his call of "Red hots!" is representative of the theme of the conflict between the Old South and the New South, as it acts as a symbol of the power physical world over the ideas and dreams of the past.]]> 2021-11-08 13:05:18 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1874935255 itsb0b https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1875334507 1.

2. The Mexican women was selling flowers for the dead, this symbolises with the end of Blanche and Mitch's relationship. In addition, the Mexican women helps show the diversity that existed in the area. 

3.  The tamale vendors don't help further the plot, except they show the low social classes present at that time. ]]> 2021-11-08 15:03:05 UTC https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1875346005 itsb0b https://padlet.com/angelina_mok/Streetcar_woman_vendor2021/wish/1875376202 1.

The idea of racial conflict within the society. The fact that we only know her as a 'negro' shows racism.
