Authored by a team of leading scholars, it offers students a clear analysis and detailed commentary on five of Miller's plays: \u003ci\u003eAll My Sons, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eDeath of a Salesman\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Crucible\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eA View from the Bridge\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBroken Glass\u003c\/i\u003e. A consistent framework of analysis ensures that whether readers want a summary of the play, a commentary on the themes or characters, or a discussion of the work in performance, they can readily find what they need to develop their understanding and aid their appreciation of Miller's artistry. A chronology of Miller's life and work helps to situate his oeuvre in context and the introduction reinforces this by providing a clear overview of his writing, its recurrent themes and how these are intertwined with his life and times. \u003cbr\u003eFor each play the author provides a summary of the plot, followed by commentary on the context, themes, characters, structure and language, and the play in production - both on stage and screen adaptations; there are questions for further study and detailed notes on words and phrases in the text. The wealth of authoritative and clear commentary on each play, together with further questions that encourage comparison across Miller's work and related plays by other leading writers, ensures that this is the clearest and fullest guide to Miller's greatest plays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEnoch Brater\u003c\/b\u003e is Kenneth T.
