The Crucible was merely a dramatization of the Salem Witch trials, not the actual trials. Therefore, all the characters in the Crucible are adaptions of real people at the real trials.
They Made Up.
1. I know that social repression is the unjust authority/power used in a cruel way, but how was that shown in the play? 2. How did social repression bring out the bad characteristics of the characters in the play the Crucible?
The book the crucible demonstrates pride with the following characters: Abigail, John Proctor, and Reverand Parris.
In addition to being a witch's cauldron, a crucible can refer to a severe test. In the case of characters found in Arthur Miller's play by the same name, the crucible is a test of a character's personal beliefs, ethics, and actions. Very few characters pass the test. Many are burnt by the test.
Arthur Miller named his play "The Crucible" because a crucible is a vessel used for melting or purifying metals, reflecting the intense heat and pressure the characters experience in the play. Metaphorically, the title represents the intense trials and tests the characters face during the Salem witch trials.
The Crucible is not an allegory, although many mistake it to be for obvious reasons. The Crucible was written, in part, because Arthur Miller (the playwright) was angered at his friend during The Red Scare. His friend, Kahn, reported a list of government names who were taking inside steps towards communism. Miller, upset at his good friends false accusations, wrote The Crucible shortly after.However, the Crucible's characters are almost historically accurate, three dimensional characters, two aspects rarely found in allegory. Crucible is often read to learn about the destructive nature of man and what reputation and greed can do to and/or for a person.
Elizabeth Proctor is most clearly a round character.
No one really identifies any witches in The Crucible. They do not exist. Many characters claim to see/know witches. Some of those characters include Abigail Williams, Tituba, Mercy Lewis, Ann Putnam, and Betty Parris.
