Analysis of Power Relations in Strange Interlude

Michel Foucauh＇s theories of power were adopted to interpret three pairs of power relations in Eugene O＇Neill＇s woman play, Strange Interlude. That is, power and knowledge, power and sex, discourse and power. The protagonist, Nina Leeds, lived in the traditional puritan society; however, the war made her aware of the hypocritical nature of patriarchy which advocated dated puritanical principles and aroused her self-consciousness. Nina, therefore, contributes all her lifetime to resisting against tradition and patriarchy and constructing her discourse as an independent woman actively.
