E. Does the Story Transcend Time?

Your job on this page will be to look at the issues, topics and characterizations that are still in today's world. Work to find similarities and differences between American lives in the early 1950's and American lives today. Are there issues that Willy, Biff or other characters have that are still a part of American lives today? Work to find modern day references to //Death of a Salesman//, and make some guesses about why others are trying to connect to the play. Do these references help you to understand events or situations in the play?
