Greek Tragedy, Bridge, TouchesAbstract
This paper is mainly concerned with the profound Greek touches in A View from the Bridge by Arthur Miller that is considered as a modern tragedy. It aims at finding out whether it shares certain Greek touches like values, conflict, catharsis, hamartia and suffering. Ancient playwrights, like modern playwrights take on their shoulders the task of portraying man's state in the world where nothing is certain; a world that is disturbed by the terrifying effects of war and technology. Man is now the victim of the rapid progress, the new civilization, the social classes, unemployment and pollution. Hence, a number of modern dramatists present a modern man as a helpless creature, looking for a shelter in the corners of a destructed society.
