Like Dave Singleman Willy wanted people to come from all over the country to mourn him this sympathy towards him as this is a highly unlikely situation and he therefore is setting himself and his family into a deluded scene that will never be witnessed. Willy mentions on multiple occasions how well liked he was and that at his own funeral he wanted many people to be present as they had been at Dave Singleman’s funeral “When he died, hundreds of salesmen and buyers were at his funeral.
It was this salesman and how well liked he was that inspired Willy to become a salesman as he wanted to be well liked as Dave Singleman. Willy Loman, the main character in the play, became a salesman after the death of another elderly salesman who could make money without leaving his hotel room. In “Death of a Salesman” Miller explores the capitalism of 1940s America and how the American Dream does not benefit everyone in the business world. A play in which the title is significant but not obviously so is “Death of a Salesman” by Arthur Miller. Consider such a play and show how after close study the significance of the title becomes clear. (2) Sometimes the full significance of the title of a play is not always as obvious as it might be.
