The Crucible is a fictional work ABOUT the Salem Witch Trials.
conformity was demonstrated in the crucible in that people were forced to give false admissions of the practice of witchcraft in order to preserve their lives, or alternatively die to preserve their integrity. Hence the great importance of John Proctor who ultimately died to preserve his integrity, as he valued his integrity above all else.
