Some connections between fences and character Troy and Willy Loman in Death

of a Salesman

Both characters in realm of their job are considerable because we realized this point that
Troy as garbage collector who actually is collecting his hopes and dreams which didn’t
fulfilled and Willy Loman is a salesman who we don’t understand what he sells as a
matter of fact what he knows in not about skills in this job but because of his likeness to
be loved by others he believes and knows selling yourself is right thing, but it seems he
sells his hopes and dreams and his life ended without fulfillment any of his dreams for
his ideal life which he spent life long effort to achieve that.

Troy, as a protagonist of the play is the one can say. Former baseball player and
actually an athlete, so it is mentioned he was he himself calls, calls himself a talented
athlete who was so strong, and who was able to play baseball better than even some
important players a wise players, he says in the play, so he didn't receive the attention or
recognition it deserved. Because he was a black person and this is what we actually see
when he comes to sign his son's papers in order to actually for his son to be the player
in his college, his team, football team. And the reason he some critics believe the reason
he doesn't sign that very paper, documents that are related to the college and the football
team is that he doesn't want his son maybe to experience the same failure troy
experience in the past. So Troy, actually now is a 50 year old garbage collector so now
after 53 year, leaving as an African American, and as a person who lives his life in, in
America without a specific condition, and harsh situation and it is sort of mentioned
that he collected garbage itself becomes symbolic here. That is exactly the desires he
had. This is seem to be have theme of human desires, the desires he had and The
actually the dreams and desires he had hopes he had but they were not realized they
were not achieved they were deferred and deflected so he is now collecting them and
they are actually kind of garbage here the garbage self becomes a symbolic issue
Somehow the play itself actually is about individuals That's their The Private needs is in
contrast with What happens in the outer world this is the very limited possibilities that
exist for this people in order to reach but somehow they may not be successful. This is
the kind of naturalistic, deterministic.

In death of salesman also the product Willy sells is never revealed, highlighting that
what a salesman must really sell is himself. Willy's statement hints at the
spiritually and materially unrewarding nature of his job. He clearly inspire in his sons
the idea that being well-liked is more important than character. Willy and his family
have become slaves to his dream of material comfort. His job
also takes him away from his family, so that he is seldom around. Like his flute-making
father, Willy enjoys making things. But his salesman job involves creating nothing and
selling only himself. Willy yearns to reconnect with the natural
world, but the constrained life he has chosen prevents this. His comment foreshadows
that death is the only way he can escape the trap he has created for himself Willy has
sacrificed his connections to his brother and to the natural world in order to try to give
everything to his sons. But unlike Charley, who gives his son love and a solid example,
he only ever gives his sons money and dreams of easy success. Willy doesn't give
advice about how to plan and run a sporting goods store. Instead he tells Biff how to
"sell" himself to Oliver. Willy's job as a salesman has so consumed him that he believes
that how you sell yourself, not skill or work ethic, is all important. He prefers to dream
than face reality. By taking the hose, Biff presents himself as the one person who can
save his father. It shows his desire to reconnect with nature, his need to create
something tangible, and his dream of raising thriving sons. Willy sees success as
measured in money and material things. This logic leads him to measure his own life
purely in financial terms. It's also important that even though Willy has always seen
Charley as inferior or a competitor, Charley is still there to support Willy in his time of
need (despite Charley not liking him much personally), and this is the only time Willy
acknowledges that. Willy's urge to plant vegetables represents his desire, as a man
nearing the end of his life, to leave something behind. His sons haven't grown the way
he wanted them to, and so he must replant, bringing out his dormant relationship with
nature in the process. Willy's warped sense of the American Dream, his focus on money
as the only measure of success, makes him value himself not as a loving father or
husband but rather in purely monetary terms.

Rose and Linda

Both character are voice of reality and wisdom in these plays who can understand the
nature of their husband illusion but beautifully writers shows us how these women’s
love to their life is crucial point for them rather than awakening their husband from their
dream and bring them to reality, they sacrifice themselves instead leaving these disloyal
men.

Linda is the only clear-eyed member of the Loman family. She cares about love and
family, not the American Dream, and so she can see the other members of the family
for what they really are. Linda reveals that she sees the truth about her sons, even if
Willy can't. Perhaps she also knows the truth about Willy, but her love for Willy is
more important to her than that knowledge. It is therefore ironic that Willy values
money and material things more than Linda's love for him.

Rose Maxson Wife to Troy and mother of Cory, as Rose was a very powerful woman,
although she feels betrayed by Troy. She sticks to her family, as I said, She doesn't give
up and to remain silence. She doesn't leave her house, she doesn't leave her family but
she's she says, I'm done with you, Troy. And from then on from time Raynolds come
And she finds out about fair the other woman she says that troy we no longer have to
control over me. I still have control over me. Some questions come to our mind that we
may ask weather. We may forgive the differences between forgiving Troy and
emphasising with Troy which one can we actually go on but mostly critics, many of
them they believe that we have to empathise, there is no forgiveness because what Troy
does to rose is not at all can not be forgiven. Rose represents the maternal gentleness of
the Maxson household. In opposition to Troy’s toughness and disrespect for Cory’s
feelings and opinions, Rose is a source of love and understanding. While Troy
discourages Cory’s dream of playing football, Rose supports her son’s ambitions, and
tries to convince her husband that times have changed since he played sports.

Rose largely serves as the voice of reason for her husband. While Troy is telling tall
tales about his life, Rose always corrects him and translates his fictions into the actual
acts they represent. Rose is also characterized by her devotion to her family, and her
willingness to sacrifice her desires to be the best wife and mother she possibly can, and
provide the most love she can muster. In contrast, Troy gives into his desires even when
they take him beyond his commitment to the family, as we see in his affair with
Alberta. Rose, however, believes in preserving the bonds which hold her family
together, as embodied in her wish for a fence to border her home. Wanting to keep her
family close to her, and the integrity of its bonds intact, Rose is crushed when she learns
that Troy has betrayed her and the private, enclosed space of protection she envisions as
the relationship they vowed to sustain and protect.

Universal theme; battle between sons and fathers

The central conflict of the play is between Willy and his elder son Biff, who showed
great promise as a young athlete and ladies' man, but in adulthood has become a thief
and drifter with no clear direction. Willy's other son, Happy, while on a more secure
career path, is superficial and seems to have no loyalty to anyone. By delving into
Willy's memories, the play is able to trace how the values Willy insert in his sons—luck
over hard work, likability over expertise—led them to disappoint both him and
themselves as adults. Biff and Happy are aimless, producing nothing, and it is Willy
who is still working, trying to plant seeds in the middle of the night, in order to give his
family means of living. Biff realizes, at the play's climax, that only by escaping from
the dream that Willy has instilled in him will father and son be free to pursue fulfilling
lives. Happy never realizes this, and at the end of the play he vows to continue in his
father's footsteps, pursuing an American Dream that will leave him empty and alone.

Wilson’s play is universal Play August Wilson uses a kind of a specific situation show
the universal so what are the universal features elements and features, if one of them
which is the most famous one as reading is the battle between the father and son. So, it
is mostly universal every play not just specific to African American culture is universal
idea to battle father son battle, the other one is the marital conflict arose and Troy. So, it
is not something which is specific to culture, African American culture experience the
way Troy treats his family and his second life, it is not just specific to African American
people is something universal.

In Wilson’s play Troy’s wariness about Cory trying to play football professionally is
grounded in his own experience of racial discrimination in the world
of professional baseball—where, at the time, skin color counted
more than actual talent. Troy is unwilling to let his son Cory pursue his dreams of
football deeming them as unrealistic, he’s perfectly willing to dream up lies
and unrealities in his own mind. And also Lyons view the world from a very different
perspective than Troy, and that Troy likely has great humiliation for Lyons’ choice of
profession, since playing music is unlikely to rank among Troy’s list of ‘proper’ trades.
Lyons’ claim that he and Troy are two vastly different people is pointy it emphasizes
the fact that not only do the two have different views on what matters most in life, but
that they differ in some very fundamental way, down to their very natures we can partly
read this difference as the distinct time periods in which they grew up.

Troy’s anger over Cory’s desire to play football continues to fester, and he
unreasonably accuses his son of never working of never having put any exerted effort
into anything in his life, all because Cory is pursuing a cause with which Troy
disagrees. While Cory works hard at and dedicates himself to the sport which has a
promising future in store for him all Troy seems to care about is whether or not Cory
gets his small, menial chores done, football not being a valid excuse. Troy constantly
blames Cory and has no real interest in the daily events of Cory’s life or in the activities
which inspire or fascinate him. Troy’s dialogue with Cory principally consists in
disciplining him, which largely amounts to cutting him down. Troy is concerned with
Cory’s immediate ability to make a steady income, and finds it foolish that his son
should give such a thing up for a future in sports. The extreme violence of Troy’s own
father is shocking, and shows the bitterly distorted and cold character of Troy’s father.
Yet it also might give us a bit of sympathy for Troy compared to the evil of his own
dad, Troy seems like a model father; thought trapped in a cycle of fatherhood, perhaps
Troy believes himself to be doing the best he can in steering Cory down the right path
to adulthood.
