    The main reason people come to America is said to be so that they can chase the American Dream.Everyone has heard of it , and many have died fighting for it. The only thing is that there is no clear definition of the American Dream. It is not defined by one dream, but all the opportunities that the United States has to offer. Since the founding of the United States, people have been striving to define the/ American Dream.

He has spent his whole life as a salesman who has not been very successful. As he gets older, he starts having conflicts with everyone in his life, and feels that only by killing himself will the people around him able to finally be happy.

Bernard, on the other hand, feels that the American Dream can only be achieved if one has been successful in their academic and professional careers. He shows that through hard work and dedication(奉献), success can be accomplished. He reached his professional goals an achieved his version of the American Dream.

Throughout the play these feelings are shown through the dialogue and actions of the characters. They try to achieve their goals of the American Dream. Willy Lowman is unsuccessful in his attempt, while Bernard is very successful in achieving his goal.

    Many people try go achieve the American Dream, but few actually do so . As with any goal, the American Dream takes hard work and dedication. In Death of a Salesman, all aspects of this goal are examined. For the goal to be achieved , the dream must be an attainable one which is worth working toward.
