In The Crucible what are some possible causes for hysteria?

The fear of society's strict form being threatened by growing individualism causes hysteria in The Crucible. In order for a society like the Puritan's to survive, it must be unified and ordered. It is clear from the beginning of the play that the society is very strictly set. Everyone's mind is already made up about everyone; for example, the Putnams resent the Nurses because of family matters. The society is so ordered, that outsiders have had a hard time finding their places. Reverend Parris is the third minister in seven years. Parris proclaims, "I do not wish to be put out like the cat whenever some majority feels whim... there is either obedience of the church will burn like Hell is burning" (842). The society's order is threatened by some of the individuals in the town. In the end of a very intense scene, it is important to note that those who are accused are people who do not fall in the society's norm, like Tituba, a black slave, Sarah Good, a poor woman, and Sarah Osburne, a drunk. In the end, the threat of individualism to a society with strict roles causes mass hysteria in The Crucible by Arthur Miller.
