Suppression and subjugation of women in Arthur Miller’s The Ride Down Mount Morgan

Abstract

The most conspicuous aspect of Miller’s play selected for study is the ways in which they incorporate the experience of the marginalized characters, particularly, female characters. This experience of marginality is often linked with their pursuit of individual freedom and autonomy with special focus on women’s emancipation from the monopoly of men folk. The play The Ride down Mount Morgan discussed in this paper deals with the marginalization of the female characters that, despite their efforts, could not raise themselves from their marginalized position.
