The only way in which Willy can live up to his presentation of himself to the world would be to lay down his...

  • Death Of A Salesman Tragic Hero
    2,734 words
    Abstract: The sober treatment of a lowly, unheroic protagonist in Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman flatters the audience. The more obvious way that it flatters us is by alienating us from the protagonist in his downfall so that we watch his destruction from a secure vantage.

  • Death Of A Salesman Pity And Terror
    1,119 words
    Death of a Salesman is a play that has come to redefine the concept of modern tragedy.

Many critics charge that Death of a Salesman falls short of tragedy and is therefore disqualified as a "great" play. Tragedy is developed as a form of drama that incorporates incidents arousing pity and fear, to accomplish the catharsis of such emotions. The anc...

This pattern supports the idea that a tragedy can occur in characters of common men as well...
