Willy Loman
Willy Loman was a tragic hero, he was a man trapped in a state of perpetual delusion. Although Willy was a failure, his future was not always bleak and his failure to recognize the error of his ways was ultimately his greatest shortcoming. Conversely, his intentions were of a good nature despite being in a contradictory and an obsessive state most of the time. As the play progresses, Willy becomes unpredictable and obsessive to a point of psychosis. Willy decides to end his life in hopes of an insurance payout that his family can benefit from, which is tragically not the case for our sad hero.
At first glance Willy may not seem to be a tragic hero, and if one heard him speak it would be abundantly clear that he was not. I believe
