Good morning.
Sure! Here are my suggestions:
"Death of Salesman" is about a
man whose persuit of achieving what he believes to be the "American Dream." Willy Loman. Willy Loman is a tragic hero. He has been following
attributes This is unclear; please clarify. How does one follow attributes? where as when he died it
benefits someone. Willy must be held responsible for his poor judgment, disloyalty
, and foolish pride. He is presented as a victim of society. He has indirectly indicated that Willy is not
of higher status with his last name "Loman to Lowman". He is a victim of his own flawed thoughts. Therefore, his own flaw leads him to tell lies and be successful to a point where he decides to kill himself and leave money for his oldest son Biff to be successful. Willy Loman, the troubled father as well as husband. He is a man struggling to hold onto the little dignity he has left in a changing society. Willy has failed to overcome his pride to accept reality and therefore uses lies and illusion. Willy must be held responsible for his poor judgment, disloyalty
, and foolish pride. Willy's
downfall is his own doing which is brought about by his unrealistic dreams, his pride, his career choice and his failure to manage life's problems."
You've got a good idea for your introduction here. I think you can shorten it up by stating that the main character falls prey to poor judgment, disloyalty, and foolish pride as a result of his unrealistic dreams and his career choice. Save the examples (such as Biff's) for the body of your essay.
