The Crucible Connection
The worst words to hear when friends are fighting are “who said it” or “name names”. I was in a problematic situation a couple of weeks ago and I was asked that question and instead of naming names I lied and took the blame. The whole fight started because when I was hanging out with my two friends while waiting for my other two friends to come and meet us. My one friend said that one of the girls had a “big mouth and that you couldn’t trust her with any personal details”. When she found out she went on this long rant about how we were all fake and that we were terrible friends but that wasn’t the case she did not know all the details. She came and tried to ask me who had said it and why they said it; at this point none of us were talking to each other but we were all supposed to be best friends. So I told her that it was me because I thought it would stop all the fighting if someone finally admitted to it. I was wrong the fighting got worse and once the two guys found out that I took the blame for one of them they started talking to me but the other two girls refused to talk to me. A couple of days went by and finally the person who had actually said it felt bad for me and told the truth. Eventually everybody came around and we were all cool again but even now it is almost awkward when we are all together. I think these are the worst kind of fights that friends can

    Arthur Miller's play, The Crucible, and the movie with the same name have many differences, all of which contribute to the individual effectiveness of each in conveying their central message.

    In this story, the quote “ normally the actions and deeds of a man were all that society felt comfortable judging” was included in Reverend Hale’s introduction. This quote is important and significant because it lays the foundation of what the puritans really thought during this time. This quote could be saying different things, one being that during the time of the witch trials no one wanted to judge or get on a womans bad side for they may feel they will be harmed by a woman who has been falsely accused of being a “witch”. Therefore they only feel comfortable with judging the men instead of the women of Salem. Reason two being that maybe they only questioned the external reason behind the men's actions because they were more important than…

    1. The tragic hero in the Crucible would be John Proctor since he was able to stand for who we was. He stood for an honorable cause, even though he had some minor flaws – not forgiving himself and his affair with Abigail. Proctor was able to lead the book with his heroic characteristics and traits by standing up to what he believed in and choosing the righteous decisions in the appropriate situations. Through the many downfalls Proctor faced, he was able to regain himself by trying the resolute his own problems. An example would be through the committing of adultery with Abigail and how he attempted to still show respect and affection to his wife by protecting her from being thrown in jail. On page 76, Proctor said “My wife will not die for me! I will bring your guts to your mouth but that goodness will not die for me!” He is expressing to the audience that there is a presence of humanity and righteousness in himself and nothing will ever amend his ways of living his life. When he knew about the devious scandals behind the witchcraft accusations, he strived to release all the innocent people. In addition, he refused to die as a martyr because he knew that he wasn’t a perfect model for others to follow – even though Judge Danforth insisted (page 132).…

    In The Crucible there’s a fine but distinguishable line between doing the right and wrong thing. Sometimes, decisions are made without entirely knowing what the situation is and how it came about. W. Clement Stone once said, “Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right.” Hale follows these expectations to good integrity. When everybody fell in line with the court he saw they were wrong, and he broke away to try to save who was left.…

    Joseph Smith Jr. once said “Although I do wrong, I do not the wrongs that I am charged with doing; the wrong that I do is through the frailty of human nature, like other men, no man lives without fault.” John Proctor and The Crucible are great examples of what Joseph Smith Jr. said. “I do not wrongs that I am charged with doing… No man lives without faults,” these words are the essence of The Crucible. He has done wrong, just like all the others. They are not being charged with what they’ve done wrong though. They’re being charged with witchcraft. Though, Proctor can be arrogant, and tempered at times he tries his best to do what’s right. In The Crucible, John Proctor has done his share of wrongs, but throughout the play he makes an attempt…

    All individuals unmistakably experience a sense of belonging in a multifaceted and convoluted process. Arthur Miller's play “The Crucible” and George Clooney's film “Good Night and Good Luck” are both texts where acceptance into society is explored in characters through various and complex measures. While the play and film both illustrate the complexities of assimilation into society to an individual's identity the Crucible further presents this as an ironic situation as people are pressured into conforming to societal desires, where choosing to detach from community values leads to a detrimental fate.…
