in the play bernard who was once a geek, becomes a very successful lawyer, it is said "he is going to argue a case in front of the supreme court" this is ironic as willy himself said bernard would never be successful and biff would be fantastic. when it turns out bernard is super successful willy is confused as to why bernard was successful and biff not.

the title "death of a salesman" on a basic level means that a salesman will die, and this would most probably be willy. this also shows who willy was, the man willy looked up to most was Dave Singleman, a very successful salesman. when willy describes his death he said Dave Singleman "died the death of a salesman" the word "the" shows this was definite, or the right way to die. the title of the play however shows that willy was a nobody, death of a salesman, not even death of the salesman. this title is just a reference to a hard working salesman that never quite made it. this is also possibly a reference to the American dream "if you work hard you will be rewarded" where an ironic twist of fate means a hardworking man is never recognised.
