Assessment of Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller The work was written by Arthur Miller, born in Manhattan in 1915 to Jewish immigrant parents. He witnessed his father's depression and business failure. He went to college at the University of Michigan and wrote and worked on plays. He wrote Death of a Salesman in 1948 in a small studio in Connecticut. The play is set during the Great Depression, when a struggling businessman was trying to provide for his family. He has been working for years and is getting very tired and crazy. He eventually dies a sudden death and never achieves the dream he wanted as a salesman. As soon as the show starts, you get an idea of ​​what the show will be like. The mood is dark and gloomy. Willy's dream of becoming a rich salesman has collapsed. The house they once bought that had such a spark has now fallen into disrepair around other apartment buildings, as Willy's dream slowly decays. Everyone can relate to this, first they have a great perspective and a great dream, but when the dream falls, everything else around someone falls too. The game plays slowly using a series of symbols, themes and motifs. The show sets everyone apart, especially Willy. The opera contains two acts and a Requiem which takes place at the end of the story, where Willy's death occurs. Many problems lead to his death. The story contains many symbols, one of which is seeds. These represent Willy's career as he continues to plant trying to be a better salesman and a better father, but continues to fail. As said “You can't grow a carrot in the back yard”. (lines 120-121). This also lets you know that things are not going well for him. Not only does it get to live the American dream, but it also fails to plant a…paper…side of life and make you appreciate what you have from what these characters had to do without. I feel a sense of maturity after reading the work. Rather, I want to find myself earning good money or simply doing something I love to do. I don't want to live the American dream and be a very rich and rich person after reading this story because you lose your vision of life. You don't see things as clearly as you should, instead the main focus is on money and how much you would like to earn. I want my life to be a lot like Biff's and focus on the things I need to fix within myself. I want my life to focus on family values ​​and to raise my children so that they do not lose sight of what is important in life, and that is not being rich and a powerful businessman. It means enjoying life, loving and caring for others and yourself. Everyone should do what makes them happy.
