Willy in Death of a Salesman

Number of Pages 3

A 3 page essay that discusses the character of Willy Loman from Arthur Miller’s play “Death of a Salesman,” in which Willy is portrayed as having a false and shallow sense of values. He has cheated on his wife and conveyed his superficial, impractical and false value system to his sons, which serves as a factor that has obviously had serious negative effects on their lives. Nevertheless, Willy is a sympathetic, tragic character who creates pity in the hearts of the audience. Miler accomplishes this effect by taking the audience into Willy’s thoughts, which subtly explore his past and the forces that shaped his personality. No additional sources cited.
