elements of deconstruction: a critical analysis of all my sons by arthur miller as a deconstructive study

the present paper seeks to closely explore some elements of deconstruction in all my sons by arthur miller. deconstruction is one of the most popular tendencies among the postmodernists within aesthetics.it is not destruction or reconstruction, but a kind of many constructions. deconstruction is an attempt to open a text (literary, philosophical, or otherwise) to a range of meanings and interpretations which are done through natural traces (it is also called alternative analysis). always within a text, that is to say, the word deconstruction 'replaces and lets itself be determined by such other words' as differance, pharmakon, trace, supplement, hymen, iterability, and the like(ibid.). all my sons is one of miller’s most acknowledged and challenging plays. it shows the dual responsibility of man towards his family and society, where he gets stuck in a dilemma of undecidability. the characters of this play are drowned in the anthropocentric logos of the inherited mythos of their static culture, where going beyond this cultural hymen seems to be illegitimately illegitimised. the researcher wants to pore over the iterability of life fragments of the characters in different aporetic spaces, where the judgments towards them may be based on the poetic justice.
