I only did one essay for The Death of A salesman:
In the novel, Death of a Salesman by Arther Miller, there are few motifs that carry along the play. Only one of the motifs will be discussed. That motif is the one of Diamonds. Diamonds in the play represent, wealth, success and the ability to pass material items to his family. This is something that the man character in the play has failed at. The following quotest will be examined: "You guys! There was a man started with the clothes on his back and ended up with diamond mines.", "Principally diamond mines." , "...It's who you know and the smile on your face! It's contacts, Ben, contacts! The whole wealth of Alaska passes over the lunch table at the Commodore Hotel, and that's the wonder, the wonder of this country, that a man can end with diamonds here on the basis of being liked!..", "Oh, Ben, that's the whole beauty of it! I see it like a diamond, shining in the dark, hard and rough, that I can pick up and touch in my hand. Not like --- like an appointment!..." , "The jungle is dark but full of diamonds, Willy." and "It's dark there, but full of diamonds."
Willy is quoted to saying on page forty-one, "You guys! There was a man started with the clothes on his back and ended up with diamond mines." He is telling his boys about the success that their Uncle Ben had discovered while in Africa. The mention of Ben's diamond mines comes after Bernard comes to tell him that Biff was stealing. Willy is reeling with anger and remembers Ben in one of his many memories.
Ben later comes in another memory where he mentions Africa as being: "Principally diamond mines." Later on Willy is still in his memory mode where he remembers telling Ben: "...It's who you know and the smile on your face! It's contacts, Ben, contacts! The whole wealth of Alaska passes over the lunch table at the Commodore Hotel, and that's the wonder, the wonder of this country, that a man can end with diamonds here on the basis of being liked!.." Willy explains to Ben that in order to get diamonds you don't need to walk into the jungle rather it's having contacts and being well liked that will get you diamonds. Diamonds in this quote is referred to with wealth and money.
"Oh, Ben, that's the whole beauty of it! I see it like a diamond, shining in the dark, hard and rough, that I can pick up and touch in my hand. Not like --- like an appointment!..." Willy is gardening in the night time. He has asked Ben for his help in his discussion on whether or not he should commit suicide. Willy says that he knows that the twenty thousand dollars is so close to him that he could reach out and grab it. Hence by diamonds he is talking about the twenty thousand dollars that his family will get when he dies.
Near the end of act two. After Willy had heard a confession from Biff that he loves him. He hears Ben telling him: "The jungle is dark but full of diamonds, Willy." Willy is thinking that by killing himself that he is giving something to his family. Something he wasn't able to do during his life as a salesman. "It's dark there, but full of diamonds." says Ben. As Ben has given him warning that his family might hate him if he did what he is suggesting. Yet again Willy is confident that they won't. He then sees that committing suicide will be giving Biff 'diamonds' or wealth. He justifies with himself that it is the right thing to do and that his son will love him for it. Then finally he takes the plunge and he crashes the car after everyone is sent to bed.
The motif of the diamonds is very important in the play, Death of a Salesman. It signifies wealth and success and as well as Willy's failure as a salesman in the play. He had lost many opportunities to find his diamonds by following his elder brother to Alaska. Which he opted not to do as by a suggestion by Linda. The diamonds motif pushes the story forward through till the very end. It is also the final push for Willy finally decided to kill himself. He sees by doing this for his son he gives him the diamonds that he failed to find.
