Abstract

Death of a Salesman was acclaimed as one of the best social drams of the times. The New York Times summed it up as a mixture of compassion, imagination and hard technical competence, not found in our thratre. It won Arthur Miller Pulitzer prize for fiction and the New York Drama Critics circle A wards in 1949 as the best play of the season. It became a very popular play because of its technical skill, social criticism and its merits from economic, psychological, metaphysical, and literary point of view and won Miller acclaim worldwide. Miller’s self-stated goal was to show a little man battling to make in the world while maintaining his dignity intact.
