In "The Crucible," John Proctor believed the motivating force behind all the accusations of witchcraft in Salem Village was vengeance. He was outraged at the interrogation of the pious Rebecca Nurse, and the accusation of his wife Elizabeth.
In Act 2 of "The Crucible," the setting is primarily the Proctor household in Salem, Massachusetts, during the late 17th century amidst the Salem witch trials. The act takes place several months after the events of Act 1, which introduces the escalating tension and paranoia surrounding witchcraft accusations. The Proctors are grappling with their strained marriage and the consequences of the ongoing hysteria in the community.

John Proctor's death in "The Crucible" can be seen as a tragic consequence of the hysteria and injustice of the Salem witch trials. While he initially struggles with his guilt and moral failures, his decision to stand up against the corrupt court ultimately redeems him. His execution serves as a critique of the societal forces that prioritize self-preservation and fear over truth and justice. Thus, while his death may not be fair in a moral sense, it highlights the devastating impact of mass paranoia and the importance of individual integrity.
