    Author and Authorship in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman: Willy Loman\u27s Attempts to Author a Nostalgic, Fictitious Past Lead to His Downfall, While Linda Loman’s Miller-Authored Warnings Fall on Willy’s Ever-Deaf Ears

    Throughout the 20th century, the American male protagonist’s obsession with and longing for a past that never existed brings about his own downfall. In Death of a Salesman, by Arthur Miller, Willy Loman nostalgically fantasizes about a bygone era, the pre-war days of glory and greatness, but as he attempts to recreate his presumed former prestige in a post-war world, the fantasy unravels, with not only death and destruction in his dream’s widening, illusory wake, but the unraveling also presents itself in the recognition that Willy’s carefully crafted memories are works of fiction. Decades of literary research focus on Willy’s fascination and obsession with memory, nostalgia for a previous age that never measures up to his memory of it. But, there is a wider gap in the research when it comes to the woman’s role. Willy’s female counterpart, Linda Loman, manages to survive because she is rooted in reality. For Linda, time moves on and reality fuels her forward progress, while Willy remains irrevocably tied to a false, self-conceived past. Routinely focusing on Linda as permissive or assisting in prolonging Willy’s fantasies, as merely the long-suffering housewife motif that Willy proposes, only exacerbates the notion that women are superfluous to the stories of men. Linda’s attempts to awaken her fantasy laden husband fall on deaf ears, and they also fall on blind critics. As the author of his fictions, Willy veers further and further from the truth of his situation and his character, while Miller’s moral lessons assert their sway through Linda as the truth teller. Linda is Miller’s voice, reminding the readers that “attention must be paid” to both Willy’s delusions and Linda’s accuracy

    Este trabalho busca compreender o pensamento sobre a Linguagem Musical do compositor Willy Corrêa de Oliveira a partir de transcrições das aulas do curso Linguagem e Estruturação Musicais, ministrado por ele no Departamento de Música da Escola de Comunicações e Artes (ECA) da Universidade de São Paulo (USP). O autor desta dissertação parte de trechos de aulas para encontrar relações desse pensamento com a Filosofia Marxista e com diversas teorias e metodologias que resultam em uma maneira de entender a idéia por trás das notas, característica de suas análises. O materialismo-dialético é compreendido no pensamento de Willy a partir da prática e de uma consciência histórica marxista. Esses também seriam os pontos de ligação entre a teoria marxista e outras, como a fenomenologia, a hermenêutica e a semiótica, no caso. As transcrições encontram-se integrais nos Anexos. Assim, o pensamento musical de um compositor brasileiro contemporâneo torna-se disponível e acessível para os que buscam trilhar os mesmos caminhos.This work aims to understand the musical thought of composer Willy Corrêa de Oliveira from transcriptions of a course named Musical Language and Structure taught by him at Music Department of Arts and Communication School of University of São Paulo.

Dialectic-materialism is understood in Willy's thought from practice and a Marxistconscience of History. These would be the basis to join Marxist theory to others, like Phenomenology, Hermeneutics and Semiotics, in this case. All transcriptions are part of this work. Thus, musical thought of a Brazilian contemporary composer is accessible for those who go by the same track
