Aspirations_To_Get_Ahead

Aspirations To Get Ahead The American Dream is based on independence the “Declaration of Independence”. We believe that all people are born with these rights, freedom to achieve the American Dream. In “The Death of a Salesman”, by Arthur Miller and “A Doll’s House”, by Henrik Ibsen both portray two people who realized their independence when they were at the end of their rope. Most of Miller’s play is directly or indirectly about the American Dream, because, ultimately this dream wasn’t going to succeed as lots of people wished. Death of a Salesman is a moving destruction of the whole myth. To be hard working, honest and have ambition were the ways of the American Dream. This will only lead to success, wealth and in due time – power. But the dream for everyone developed and encouraged greed, selfish behavior, pride and rivalry between one another. Willie Loman, in “Death of a Salesman”, has lived his life in pursuit of the American dream. Traditionally the American dream meant opportunity and freedom for all, and Willie believed that. However, hard work could not earn him everything that he wanted or thought he deserved.
