 A View from the Bridge by Arthur Miller is a modern American tragedy set in an Italian-American neighborhood in 1950s Brooklyn. The story centers on Eddie Carbone, a longshoreman who lives with his wife, Beatrice, and her orphaned niece, Catherine. When Beatrice’s relatives arrive illegally from Italy to find work, tensions in the household grow. Catherine falls in love with one of the immigrants, Rodolpho, sparking Eddie’s jealousy and possessiveness. The play reveals the destructive power of pride, repressed desire, and the clash between personal loyalty and the rule of law. Miller has crafted a powerful exploration of identity, justice, and the human cost of denial. |
