Description
The Julia character, as depicted in the essay in Pentimento,
provides a character model for Lillian Hellman's plays.
Julia's strength of personal responsibility provides Hellman
a measure by which her characters succeed or fail, a
criterion upon which personal worth is judged. Julia's
strength, compassion, and personal responsibility are
depicted in varying degrees in the characters created in
Watch on the Rhine, The Children's Hour, The Little Foxes,
Another Part of the Forest, The Searching Wind, and The
Autumn Garden. As reflected in the plays, Julia is
Hellman's model, her ideal; she is the vehicle for Hellman's
strong personal and social statements.
