However, Vladimir Nabokov?s Lolita, almost a half-century after it was published, does have the power to disconcert us still, if not precisely to shock us.

509.20295 The Effects of Non-Productive Work in ?Bartleby, the Scrivener? and ?Life in the Iron Mills?
In ?The Communist Manifesto,? Marx and Engels argue that ?The modern bourgeois society that has sprouted from the ruins of feudal society has not done away with class antagonisms. It has but established new classes, new conditions of oppression, new forms of struggle in place of the old ones? (445). Modern authors confront these new struggles through stories about workers, dramatizing the physical and psychological effects of their situation within the capitalist system. Two American stories, Melville?s ?Bartleby, the Scrivener? and Davis?s ?Life in the Iron Mills,? present protagonists who are proletariat workers. In both cases, these laborers find humanity at odds with proletariat work. As their labor is exploited to increase capital, Bartleby and Hugh Wolfe are, in a sense, erased as individual humans.

510.20307 Tragedy of the Common Man in Death of a Salesman
Miller presents his protagonist, Willy Loman, as the tragic common man. Through this characterization, Miller exposes the American Dream of upward mobility as the mythology that has replaced that of the ordered universe. This modern mythology claims that any man can achieve greatness, not through the will of gods but through personal will. Unlike a classical tragic hero, whose trouble coincides with a disturbance in universal order, Loman?s modern tragedy lies in his steadfast belief in the artificial capitalist system that betrays him.
