Double-Journal Death of a Salesman Act I-The scene in the bedroom in which Happy and Biff are talking From the perspective of Biff in this scene I can see him attempting to readjust to the situation of living at home. Nothing had changed, but it has. It is his father. There is something in the past that Biff reminisces of with his brother.
In the background, he hears his father’s incessant rambling and it seems to frustrate him. He seems to highly respect his mother and somehow see his fathers rambling is hurtful towards her and wants him to stop. From Happy’s perspective, I can just see him ‘happy’ (no pun intended) to be with his brother again. Although he tries to bring up the subject of how life’s going he seems distracted by Biff’s distraction. He is trying to get to know his brother again and his usual dealings with his father don’t seem to worry him as much. He just accepts things the way the are and does not seem to know why Biff can not do the same.
The scene in which Happy and Biff tell their father Biff is to meet with Mr. Oliver and about the Florida Plan. From Willy’s perspective, I see him looking upon his too sons with the thought that his elder son might make something of himself yet. You can see throughout the play, that one of Willy’s dreams is for Biff to succeed.
Although their constant bickering, you can almost see the look on his face when he is told the news. Willy might be slipping in his old age, but he delighted with their idea of them working together and finally some meaning pours into his otherwise boring lifestyle. From Biff’s perspective, he believes that he might finally have a way to please his father. Although, through High School he was the one he father was proud of, ever since he flunked math, it seems that Willy’s constant perception of him is that he is a bum. When he sees the look of joy on his father’s face about this news, he carries on as well and loses all sense of reality whether or not it could actually happen.
The Essay on Biff Father Willy Giving
BANG! Your father is dead. Within a few seconds, although he attempted many times, your father dies. He gave up. All the fights, all the disrespect, and all the struggles are behind you. However, all the hope, all the passion, and all the love is still there. In Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, the main conflict is between Willy Lowman and his son Biff. Most of their struggles are based on ...
Act II-The scene where Willy goes to see Howard Wagner. From Willy’s perspective, he is nervous beyond belief. He somehow resents the company for putting him in a position in which he has to work on commission after all these years. When he goes to see this, child of a boss, he attempts to ask for them to take him off the road.
When Howard tries to tell him that he can’t use him on the floor he loses his temper and then tries to compensate by asking him for less and less money for a salary every time. In the end, he breaks down and Howard finally fires him. From my perspective, I can sense Willy being scared. After all these years, he has come to the point in which he actually has to beg for a small salary. Through the entire play, I may see Willy as a dreamer, but always with self-respect. To see his gravel like this bothers me and it is hard to see him do it.
The scene in which Biff discovers his father’s affair with another woman From Biff’s perspective, I can see the rage and hurt within his heart. His father, which he looks up to and think can fix his situation, turn’s into a different type of man right before his own eye’s. Before this incident, Biff looked at his father as a hard-working man, which tried to supply his family with the necessities to live. After it, only one word passed though his mind with every look at his father… phony. For myself in this situation, I was extremely disappointed in Willy.
When I read about him, I looked upon him maybe as a dreamer, but always put his family first. And also, I felt Biff’s pain, it must be utterly devastating to find your father with another woman and for him to lie straight to you face about it. Willy Woman may have been a dreamer, but this unforgivable act puts him low as a person on my list.
The Essay on Willy Charlie Bernard Howard
Willy Loman in Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesmen" was portrayed as a multi-faced, hypocritical man who did nothing but lie to himself about what he and his family were. Howard, Bernard, and Charlie show his personalities. Howard is very harsh and straight forward with Willy and shows the audience how worthless he is, whether or not Willy himself realizes it yet. Howard tells Willy "I don't want ...
