lesson 12. class project'07 : Strindberg's Miss Julie

--August Strindberg, "Photography and Philosophy" (1903), translated by L. J. Potts, reprinted in Jane M. Rabb, ed., Literature & Photography: Interactions 1840-1990. For more on Strindberg and photography, see Linda Haverty Rugg, Picturing Ourselves: Photography and Autobiography http://www.alan-thomas.com/texts.html

part 3 :

The peasants' ballet is another break in the primary action of the play. The peasants' lusty destruction of the kitchen parallels the disruption the off- stage events will cause. Jean and Julie's exit marks a major turning point in the play. By retiring offstage, the two keep the most scandalous event of their flirtation, sex, hidden from view. Similarly, in dialogue sexual matters are alluded to indirectly, through suggestive phrases, suspenseful pauses, and tense ellipses.
