A Stylistic Analysis of Intra-familial Struggle for Power in Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller

Abstract

What this article will focus on is a ‗stylistic‘ analysis of struggle for power in the play Death of a Salesman. This power struggle among the members of the Loman family is characterised by the violations of ‗turn-taking‘ and ‗politeness‘ strategies. These strategies are violated especially by the father Willy and his elder son Biff and these violations are the methods they use to gain discursive power over others. These language choices of characters will be analysed in the light of the theories by Sacks, Schegloff, Jefferson and Herman on ‗turn-taking‘ and by Leech, Brown and Levinson on ‗politeness‘ in order to reveal the dynamic nature of discursive power.
