26 Short Essay Questions Key 1. What is the significance of the way the Loman house is presented when the play begins? Miller's stage directions specifically require that the salesman's house is overshadowed by tall apartment buildings "on all sides." This symbolizes the way in which Willy and the relatively small life goals he has achieved have been overshadowed by change and development. Not only has he not kept pace with these, they have overwhelmed him. The buildings also symbolize the enormous obstacles an ordinary person must face. 2. Why has Willy unexpectedly returned from his journey? Willy is exhausted, dispirited, and on the verge of a breakdown. He cannot seem to control his thoughts, or the car, which, he tells Linda, has come close to running off the road several times. He has come to the point where he cannot face the continual long drives associated with his type of sales work. 3. What is Linda's attitude to Willy's return? Linda is a loyal, devoted wife and she is very concerned about the husband she admires and deeply loves. She is tender, supportive and nurturing in her manner, coping with the terrible fear for him that she harbors and taking care that Willy does not see it. She urges him to rest. 4. In the first few minutes of the play, what indications are there that Willy has an affinity with the artistic and creative? At the very beginning of the play, the sound of a flute is heard. This recurs from time to time during the play and represents the family connection to the life of the artisan who creates by using his hands. Later we learn that Willy's father was expert in making flutes. Also in the first few minutes of the play, as Willy tells Linda of the driving experience that was frightening, he talks of the beauty of the scenery and there is a certain wistfulness, as if at a subliminal level he knows that this is what he truly prefers. 89
27 5. In what way is Linda realistic about life? While Willy begins to rail against the ironic situation that as soon as a mortgage is paid off there is no one to live in the house, Linda comments that "life is a casting off." This is wise and mature thinking. As a mother, she knows that one raises children in order, all too soon, to let them go out into the world and live their own lives. This is reality. The phrase "casting off" reminds us of the way insects (like cicadas emerging from the nymph stage) discard their shells and enter a new and dangerous existence. It makes us think, too, of a boat casting off from the jetty and moving into open water. 6. In what sense is Willy ironic when he comments that it is obscene for Biff not to have found himself by the age of thirty-four? As it becomes clear as the play develops, Willy has not understood his place in life. He has struggled to be someone that he is not and tries to become successful in a career for which he has always been unsuited. So far, Biff has traveled the same path. 7. What erratic behavior of Willy's indicates that he is disintegrating emotionally? Willy is confused and contradicting himself. He claims that Biff is lazy, yet seconds later describes Biff as a hard worker. His conversation shifts from subject to subject, sometimes disconcertingly, as when he breaks off a tirade about overpopulation to ask, suddenly "How can they whip cheese?" 8. How does Biff respond to Happy's question about his plans for the future? Biff expresses his uncertainties. He knows that, for him, virtual slave work in a warehouse is not fulfilling. He shares his love of the outdoors, of working with his hands and his impatience with the competitiveness of working in the commercial world. He reveals that he has had a variety of jobs and is directionless but wants to change that. He also knows that he ought to grow up and take on adult responsibilities such as a wife and family. 9. What does Biff suggest he and Happy do to change their lives? Biff believes the two of them would be happier out West somewhere, running their own ranch. Happy has admitted that, despite the girlfriends and the car and the nice 90
28 55. Explain Happy's refusal to go with Biff and make a life for themselves in the country. Happy sees any change in his own selected direction as defeat. Unfortunately, he has a narrow, possibly pig-headed, vision. Biff is now open to other possibilities. Happy cannot see that what he is rejecting is an opportunity to get free of the constraints of the commercial world with its brutal competitiveness. He seems set to repeat Willy's tragedy. 56. Is Charley's summation of Willy and his life as a salesman an accurate one? In a memorably picturesque way, Charley demonstrates his complete understanding of the way it is for a salesman like Willy. Success is made for the salesman, not through the quality or desirability of the products he introduces and demonstrates, but by force of personality. The strong indication is that people buy from the salesman because they like him. When he comes to a situation where he no longer has charisma, sales fall and so does his career, but he knows the risks. 57. Did Willy Loman die in vain? It is very likely that Willy Loman did die in vain. His purpose for suicide was to endow his family with the life insurance payout. However, there is every indication that the money would not be paid. The insurance company has evidence that earlier accidents were deliberate, one having been witnessed by a woman who stated Willy deliberately drove through a bridge railing. With this sort of previous evidence making Willy's fatal crash suspicious, it is unlikely that the family will see any money. 58. What is wrong with Happy's assertion that "the only dream you can have [is] to come out number one man."? Happy's goal of being "number one man" is the ambition of the arrogant egoist and has little substance. Happy does not take into account the fact that there is more than one way to measure success. He does not speak of success derived from mastery in some field but seems interested in power for its own sake. Without any philosophy underpinning his goals, it is open to question that he will achieve them. He seems likely to live a life similar to his father's. 102
29 59. Why did Willy never find true happiness? Willy never allowed himself to follow his passions and build his life and career around them. Instead, he allowed himself to be seduced by the superficial promises of a commercial world that was indifferent to his fate and did not value his efforts. 60. Is Death of a Salesman an uncompromising indictment of "The American Dream"? The American Dream, in which an individual can, through talent and by sheer effort, move from log cabin to White House, is partly fantasy and partly true. It is definitely possible for a man or woman to become self-actualized and also wealthy by effort combined with innate gifts. It is also true that people with little talent and a lot of push can be hugely successful but usually in an empty way. The vast bulk of humanity, leading what Thoreau called lives "of quiet desperation," works hard and honestly without ever becoming rich and famous. Willy Loman failed partly because he did not develop and fully utilize his talents, and partly because he based his life on a series of dishonesty. This is not to condemn the American Dream per se, but to exercise caution. 103
30 Essay Topic 14 "The ancient Greeks had a motto that said, 'Know yourself.' Death of a Salesman is a play about people who never understand themselves." To what extent do you agree with this statement? In your answer, refer both to major and minor characters in the play. Essay Topic 15 "Willy Loman's life is a complete waste, as is his death."

Are the characters aware of the ironies in the story? How does it affect their behaviors? Essay Topic 17 "Death of a Salesman shows us, in a moving way, how disastrous it is if people lack the ability or to accept change in themselves and in the social and economic world." Discuss this statement, making close reference to the play. Essay Topic 18 What is Willy Loman's philosophy of life? In what ways is this significant in his relationships and his fate? Essay Topic 19 "The commercial world inhabited by Willy Loman is very different from that which operates in the twenty-first century. Willy's tragedy would be impossible today." Referring to the text and to your knowledge of today's world, either agree with or refute this statement. Essay Topic 20 "BIFF: 'He had the wrong dreams. All, all wrong.'" "CHARLEY: 'Nobody dost blame this man.'" Do you agree with Charley? If Willy cannot be blamed for his tragedy, where does the blame (if any) lie? 106

What reason does Biff give Linda for Willy throwing him out? (a) Willy finds out Biff had been gambling. (b) Willy is uncomfortable around people who know he is a fake. (c) Biff has not paid enough board to his parents. (d) Willy does not like Biff bringing girls home. 2. What change has Happy noticed in Biff? (a) Biff has put on weight and seems confused. (b) Biff has become withdrawn and sad. (c) Biff has lost his sense of humor and has become bad-tempered. (d) Biff has lost his old humor and confidence. 3. Why does Willy need to borrow money from Charley? (a) He has no money to buy Linda a birthday present. (b) He cannot afford his insurance premium. (c) He has a loan shark after him and is terrified. (d) He cannot afford his next car payment. 4. What is the guaranteed proposition Willy refers to as he "speaks" to Ben? (a) The value of the mortgage (b) The payout on Willy's life insurance (c) His superannuation payout (d) The payout on Ben's life insurance 5. How does Happy advise his brother to deal with the Bill Oliver matter? (a) He advises Biff to go back and try again in a week. (b) He urges Biff to return the fountain pen anonymously. (c) He urges Biff to lie to Willy and pretend Bill Oliver is considering the matter. (d) He urges Biff to pretend Bill Oliver has offered the money unconditionally. 137

33 9. How does Happy think Biff should handle telling Willy the bad news when he arrives at the restaurant? Happy suggests that Biff lie, telling his father something he knows the old man will want to hear. Like Willy himself, Happy wants to manufacture a world of pleasant make believe in which failures are never confronted and unpleasant truths are avoided. He favors keeping up appearances and cannot face reality. He encourages Biff to do the same. 10. What is the effect of Willy's words, "The gist of it is that I haven't got a story left in my head."? It is ironic that Willy says he has no stories left to tell. In truth, his mind is full of stories, not reality, not reflective thought, not self-knowledge, not the truth. What Willy is really saying is that he has run out of excuses. Unfortunately, he has no experience with reality and this is destroying him. 157
