Abstract: This present dissertation borrows the New Historicist approach to reading and comparing between Stephen Crane's Maggie, a Girl of the Street (MGS) and Tennessee Williams's The Glass Menagerie (GM). Based on the principles of the Greenblattian New Historicist aspects, our inquiry dissects the different socio-political, historical, and cultural context that helped the emergence of the two selected literary works. The present study unveils the importance of Crane's and Williams's biographies in their careers. The two literary works proved to be social inquiries that depict the lives of the Americans during the Gilded Age and the Post-Great Depression periods. In the limits of some New Historicists creeds, our investigation examined the different facts and incidents that influenced the process of personality and identity fashioning, religion, and Anecdotes. Besides, this study strips the plights of people within the capitalist system adopted by America and unveils the bad conditions under which people were struggling for survival
