Arthur millers treatment of women in The Crucible?

Women in The Crucible were treated very poorly, simply because of their gender.If you were a woman you were automatically assumed to have something to do with witchcraft. In all of the trials, majority were women. The teenagers in The Crucible were over trusted and had entirely too much power. They accused anyone and anything in their sight. They knew they could get away with it, because the judge didn't want to make a fool of himself and make it as if he hung people for no reason. He didn't want to be wronged. Not only were women persecuted during this time because of superstition, but it was colonial times (1600-1700s) so women weren't exactly equals with the men. Abigail Williams is able to gain lots of power by manipulating the society's fear of witchcraft. So basically, women are kind of pushed around and blamed for being witches without good reason.

How is the Crucible injustice?

The events in Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible" are used by him to mirror the events in America of the time. At the time it was written, a crazy senator named Joseph McCarthy used fear to sway the Americans to persecute and arrest certain people for "communism" without any proof at all. They could be famous actors or actresses, random men and women, anything, and, without having done anything wrong, would get arrested for Communism. In the play, two crazy kids decide to run a plot where they use the town of Salem's common fear of witchcraft to accuse everyone in the town of witchcraft with no proof, in an event known as the "Salem Witch Trials".


Who were all the people who accused of witchcraft in the crucible?

Tituba (Slave for Rev. Parris), 3 local beggar women, Giles Corey and his wife, Rebecca Nurse and John Proctor and his wife Elizabeth.
