The Cambridge Companion to Arthur Miller

Arthur Miller is regarded as one of the most important playwrights of the twentieth century and this Companion provides an introduction to this influential dramatist. In addition to analyses of Miller’s plays, fiction and contributions to film, his work is placed within the context of the social and political climate of the time. In the past twenty years Miller has written a host of new plays, and the Companion examines these works. It also contains a detailed chronology of Miller’s work and illustrations from important productions.
