The Problem of TragedyFrom Shakespeare's Julius Caesar to Henrik Ibsen's A Dolls House, the problem plays took shape in the characters, l The plot and even the setting. It is not necessary for a problem game to be considered a problem game simply because it was not written in the era when problem games were formed. Arthur Miller refuted this theory and successfully wrote a play in modern times; his play was Death of a Salesman. The timely struggles faced by characters such as Willy Loman eventually lead to a major personal problem which, in this case, leads to death. Problem plays deal directly with social and professional issues. The Death of a Salesman is a great example of a character dealing with social and professional problems.Problem plays were first invented during the time of William Shakespeare. His plays, including All's Well, Measure for Measure, and Hamlet, fall into the category of "problem plays" (Schanzer, ix). Many authors have written about Shakespeare and his “problem play.” FS Boas was one of these men. He once wrote: "All these dramas introduce us into highly artificial societies, whose civilization is ripe for decay...Thus, throughout these plays, we advance on obscure and unexplored paths, and at the same time In the end, our feeling is neither simply joy nor pain. » (Schanzer, 1). An artificial society is exactly what is created in Miller's Death of a Salesman. Problem games suggest major personal, social, political, or professional problems in which each problem is timely, realistic, and a character experiences these situations in real locations and the problems have real-world outcomes. The idea of ​​“reality” opens the door to problem games. Desperate UnhappinessMiller deals with much more than the simplicity of Willy Loman's greedy despair. Ultimately, it’s about what we call the American Dream. The extreme power of humanity to create an image of freedom and equality of self sets this piece in motion. A critic of the play, Craig Garrison, said in an essay: "The play ultimately makes no judgment about America, although Miller always seems on the verge of making one, telling us that America is a nightmare, a cause and a home. for tragedy” (Garrison, “The System”). Making America the nightmare that is the home of tragedy ultimately shames the American dream and makes the lives of people like Willy Loman a dream in themselves. Willy continually fantasizes about the western farm.
