Life is about finding your true identity. One’s identity can be shaped by the people around them, as seen in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman. Throughout the story, Willy Loman struggles to find his identity. In the process, he helps to shape the identity of his two sons, Biff and Happy, who, like their father, struggle to find their own identity. ... (Murray, 76)
Willy’s lack of discipline also helped to shape Biff’s identity. ... The only difference is that Biff finally realizes that there are certain things that he needs to do to find his true identity while Willy would not even take a new job when it was offered by Charley. ... He was determined to go out on his own and find his true identity. (Sharma, 371)
Happy’s identity was influenced by Willy as well. ... The importance for identity and success that has for so long plagued the Loman’s finally catches up with them. ... (Murray, 84)
Willy figures that he can save his identity by taking care of his family financially. ... When it came clear to him that he could no longer provide for them, he resorted to the only solution he could think of to save his identity as a provider. ... The first was to save his identity as a normal, loving, hard-working man. ... (Elsom, 249)
Willy was a very confused man who struggled to find his own identity. ... Because of Willy’s influence and example, Biff and Happy both struggled to find their own identity as well. ... (Moss, 45)
There are several definitions and meanings to the word identity. ... Throughout mankind’s entire history, the struggle for identity has been constantly fought for. The struggle can be seen whether it has been on a large scale of entire nations destroying each other to save their own identity, or on a smaller individual scale such as Willy Loman. It has been repeatedly shown that this never ending struggle for identity can truly destroy on both a large and small scale, each with its own devastating impact.
