That being said, maybe it was just me but everything he states about the need of a aesthetic education in America and the need for artists to familiarize themselves with all the other arts to better round themselves are things I've believed as second nature since I was in grade school, though I also believe that artists must be familiar with the political, social, and natural sciences as well. By that he did not mean socialist drama, but rather plays concerned with more than the life of the individual—plays that consider the whole society and the bonds between individuals and society.

In his plays, he is mainly concerned with the people who are denied a sense of community. National and international events of early twentieth century were of a very complex nature which caught Miller’s attention. In Germany, Hitler and his Nazis represented the loss of liberal human values such as spirit of tolerance, broad-mindedness, love of humanity and brotherhood of man.

  • The Banality of Addiction: Arthur Miller and Complicity Grant Gosizk
    The Banality of Addiction: Arthur Miller and Complicity Grant Gosizk Modern Drama, Volume 61, Number 2, Summer 2018, pp. 171-191 (Article) Published by University of Toronto Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/696362 Access provided by Carthage College (6 Sep 2018 17:42 GMT) The Banality of Addiction: Arthur Miller and Complicity GRANT GOSIZK ABSTRACT: While much has been written on Arthur Miller’s relationship to the post-war intelligentsia, few critics have explored the influence that intellectual debates on Holocaust complicity had on the author’s 1960s catalogue. Building on the similarities between the theory of the “banality of evil” offered in Hannah Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusa- lem (1963) and Miller’s Herald Tribune article on the Nazi trials in Frankfurt (1964), this article suggests that the playwright’s interest in emerging theories of complicity became a central concern of After the Fall (1964) and Incident at Vichy (1964). Strongly influenced by Theodor Adorno’s and Jean-Paul Sartre’s work on aesthetic responses to post-war guilt, Miller used these plays to dramatize competing re- sponses to the concept of “ubiquitous complicity” for the Holocaust. Using the aesthetic language of addiction spectacle scenes, which a strong tradition of American temperance theatre had popularized, Miller evaluated the mechanics of complicity and offered a dramatic thesis on its importance to anti-fascist activism. I conclude that, in both plays, the representation of addiction became the primary means through which Miller participated in contemporary critical debates on post-war guilt. KEYWORDS: Hannah Arendt, Eichmann in Jerusalem, Incident at Vichy, After the Fall, medical humanities, guilt Although his was a remarkably prolific career, Arthur Miller did not produce a single theatrical work between 1956 and 1964.

  • Linda Loman: “Attention Must Be Paid”
    Linda Loman: “Attention must be paid” It might surprise some readers to find this bit of dialogue spoken by the central character, Amelia Earhart, in Arthur Miller’s 1940s radio play Toward a Farther Star: “Isn’t it time to unlock the kitchen and let women out into fresh air? . Women must have the right to lead the way once in a while, to search for new things instead of sitting home waiting for men to do the work of the world” (qtd. in Bigsby Arthur Miller: A Critical Study 43–44). For many feminist and other gender- based critics, Miller is guilty of creating sexist texts, which demean or reduce female characters. Although many of Miller’s dramas have been attacked on such grounds, sometimes intensely, as when some accused him of unfairly portraying Marilyn Monroe as Maggie in After the Fall, Death of a Salesman is probably the most discussed of his plays in relation to female characters. As Happy tells Biff, “There’s not a good woman in a thousand” (103). Other than Charley’s briefly seen secretary Jenny and Linda Loman, the women are described as sexual objects: Miss Francis, the “buyer” in Willy’s Boston hotel room, referred to as “The Woman”; Miss Forsythe, whom Happy assures Biff is “on call,” referred to as “Girl”; and her friend “Letta,” also obviously “on call” (102). If Miss Francis is a buyer, Miss Forsythe and Letta are sellers in this masculine world of capital and exchange. Matthew Roudané aptly summarizes much feminist criticism, noting that it argues that “the play stages a grammar of space that marginalizes Linda Loman and, by extension all women, who seem Othered, banished to the periphery of a paternal world” (“Celebrating Salesman” 24).

  • All My Sons As Precursor in Arthur Miller's Dramatic World
    All My Sons as Precursor in Arthur Miller’s Dramatic World Masahiro OIKAWA※ Abstract Since its first production in 1947, Arthur Miller’s All My Sons has been performed and appreciated worldwide. In academic studies on Miller, it secures an important place as a precursor, because it has encompassed such themes as father-son conflict, pursuit of success dream in the form of a traditional tragedy as well as a family and a social play. As for techniques, to begin with, the Ibsenite method of dramatization of the present critical situation and presentation of the past “with sentimentality” are obvious. Secondly, the biblical tale of Cain and Abel from the Old Testament allows the play to disguise itself as a modern morality play on “brotherly love.” Thirdly, Oedipus’s murder of his father in Oedipus Rex is used symbolically to place the play in the Western tradition of drama. Taking all these major themes and techniques into account, the paper argues that the play is dramatizing the universal, and that by looking at the conflict between father and son, we can understand why Miller’s message in All My Sons is significant for Japanese andiences. I. Introducion Most of the reviews appearing in the major newspapers and magazines on All My Sons (1947) were rather favorable, which is quite understandable considering that the play vividly depicts the psychological aspects of the United States during and immediately after the Second World War in a realistic setting. In fact, it is impossible to understand the problems Joe and Chris Keller, the father and the son, get involved in without the background of the war.
