Many have viewed this concern as being rooted in Miller's personal feelings of both admiration and resentment toward his older brother Kermit. But while this may have allowed Miller to create his dramatic siblings with more authenticity, might not this fascination with loving brothers at odds have another, more literary source? And more than that, what if this book also contained many other seeds of Miller's growing existential philosophy and literary tropes? Dostoyevsky was one of the first major authors to whom the young Miller was exposed, and this essay explores the possible influence of The Brothers Karamazov on Miller's work.","PeriodicalId":40151,"journal":{"name":"Arthur Miller Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44117699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

His earlier, equally realistic All My Sons has withstood several forays against its apparent realism with varying success, largely dependent on the cohesive vision of the director. Belgian experimentalist Ivo van Hove's highly anticipated Broadway revival of The Crucible featured innovative staging and costuming, as well as a superb ensemble cast, that pleased plenty, but left others feeling somewhat cheated. Some, in this case Thomas Greenfield and Molly Marino, felt that van Hove's interpretation was too limited and failed to render an articulate visual or aural statement; while David Palmer was more willing to view van Hove's attempted vision in a more positive light, as an insightful but dark commentary on the disturbing vagaries of our current society. The following reviews offer a variety of responses to this landmark production. It should be noted that whether one loved or hated it, the excitement that has surrounded The Crucible on the heels of van Hove's A View from the Bridge (a production on which the majority of critics were more agreed regarding its excellence) has done much to make Miller one of the most feted playwrights on Broadway at the start of the twenty-first century, and past his centennial celebrations. This should offer encouragement for other renowned directors and theater companies to try their hand. Thus, we can look forward to even more exciting productions of Miller's work in the years to come.-Susan C. W. AbbotsonPerformance Review Editor]The CrucibleWalter Kerr TheatreNew York, NY31 March-17 July 2016Directed by Ivo van HoveREVIEWED BY THOMAS GREENFIELD, SUNY GENESEOSince his death in 2005 Arthur Miller has had five Broadway opening nights: All My Sons (2008), A View from the Bridge (2010), Death of a Salesman (2012), A View from the Bridge again (2015), and The Crucible, which opened in March 2016. The two most recent productions were directed by Ivo van Hove, the heralded Belgian avant-garde experimentalist and \"Broadway's Man of the Moment\" (Marks). If one views past as prologue, van Hove and his \"moment\" are something of a mismatch considering how infrequently Miller's plays are staged as avant-garde pieces. Van Hove certainly understands this disconnect between Miller and himself, admitting as recently as 2014, \"I'm not such a fan of Arthur Miller . . . often his plays are ethical, you know? Good against evil . . . I am not so interested in good and evil\" (Dickson). For better and worse, that disconnect is evident in van Hove's Broadway revival of The Crucible.Van Hove made his reputation in Europe and the United States by radically reimagining traditional dramatic pieces. (The word \"reimagining\" frequently appears in discussions of van Hove's productions.)
