great works ii – 2850 jta 12:25-2:05: love letters from the world

Initially, the quote that embodies Miss Julie is “Tonight Miss Julie is crazy again, perfectly crazy.” at the begging of the text, throughout the play Miss  Julie has numerous crazy woman moments. Because her fiance left she began looking  for a fit partner somewhere else, even where she shouldn’t be looking at her own staff. The second quote shows the change in power throughout the play. In the begging miss Julie was the one giving the orders but when Jean  told her “Go up and dress yourself and see to it that you have traveling money and  then come down.” This tells us that Miss Julie’s role changed, Jean was the one telling her what to do instead of the other way around as it was in the begging of the play. Her role as the woman of the house changed as well, she was no longer viewed as their lady.
