| Description |
This article examines the portrayal of the elderly lady in the play “The Velocity of Autumn” (2014). Contentanalysis of the play suggests that the author modeled a charismatic ambivalent character who overcomesthe oppression of the cross-generational bond. The female protagonist of the male playwright subvertsdisempowerment stereotypically associated with aging. Yet the oppression still takes place in the formof the language: there is a great deal of ageist self-stereotyping in the language of the elderly character.In terms of the play’s poetics the images of home and the tree in front of the window turn out as the projections of the character’s elderly self.
