Throughout The Prince and Discourses‚ Niccolò Machiavelli talks in great length‚ and seems to endorse‚ power‚ deception‚ and cruelty. There is one passage in particular that I found to contradict Machiavelli’s viewpoint on dominance and to support the fact that he is perhaps a classical republican. The way Machiavelli praises Rome in Chapter 2 of Discourses shows that he believes there is a way to make the system work without a “prince” being feared by his subjects. In this passage he starts out

Despite unnecessary changes to plot and some flawed character portrayals‚ Nicholas Hytner’s 1996 film adaptation of Arthur Miller’s 1953 play‚ The Crucible‚ is overall a viable adaptation of Miller’s original work. Many of the directorial changes made by Hytner in creating this screenplay are successful in further emphasising Miller’s central ideas. The characterisation of Abigail Williams is captured appropriately in the film displaying her overall manipulative nature by drawing extensively on the
