My final assignment of freshman college english is a research paper on Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie...I have no idea where to start, does anyone know the play well or any english teacher types know a good topic?

The Glass Managerie was semi-autobiographical. Tom is Tennessee, Laura is his sister, the mother is his mother etc.
Look into his mother's reaction when she saw the play and write about that.

a minimum of you're writing on between the main properly-prevalent scripts in English literature. examine the play first. there are hundreds of essays written touching directly to the play - from debates approximately it being autobiographical to the form itself (its a dream play). Centering in on between the characters may well be your superb thank you to circulate. Amanda Wingfield is via a approaches between the main marvelous, however fullyyt lunatic, characters ever written. stable luck.

At least you are writing on one of the most famous scripts in English literature.
Read the play first.
There are thousands of essays written about the play - from debates about it being autobiographical to the genre itself (its a dream play).
Centering in on one of the characters would probably be your best way to go. Amanda Wingfield is by far one of the most wonderful, though entirely lunatic, characters ever written.
Good luck.

I have a good idea for where you can start: read the play.
After you've read it, if you have specific questions, come back here and ask them.
