I cannot sleep for dreamin'; I cannot dream but I wake and walk about the house as though I'd find you comin' through some door. -Abigail to John Proctor Proctor She thinks to dance with me on my wife's grave! And well she might, for I thought of her softly. God help me, I lusted, and there is a promise in such sweat. But it is a whore's vengeance, and you must see it; Proctor A fire, a fire is burning! I hear the boot of Lucifer, I see his filthy face! And it is my face, and yours, Danforth! For them that quail to bring men out of ignorance, as I have quailed, and as you quail now when you know in all your black hearts that this be fraud-god damns our kind especially, and we will burn, we will burn together! There is either obedience or the church will burn like Hell is burning! Parris to Proctor John Proctor Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life! Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because I am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave me my name!
11 11 Worksheet 9: Context- THE CRUCIBLE Contextual background How this is seen in the text... Experience of crisis in American society and how people react in such times was of interest to Miller There was a witch hunt in Salem, Massachusetts in 1692, which Miller researched and used although he did change the facts and this was not his sole interest. There has long been a fear of evil, the devil and witches in particular and they have often been the subject of paranoia by religious people. The Puritans settled in North America in 1620 and their religion was particularly strict. During the witch hunt/ trials, there was no escape once accused and mass hysteria took over. Miller saw parallels with what was going on in post war America and the Salem witch hunts. Instead of witches, the focus was on the fear of the spreading Communism in the world. Suddenly a small number of people seemed to have unlimited power to be as intrusive on people s private lives as they wanted. (Mc McCarthyism and the House of Un American Activities. There were disastrous results of this paranoia and in the end very little validation of any real threats of any kind to America.
12 12 Worksheet 10: Character Study- THE CRUCIBLE Understanding Characters through their words and actions. Name Action or Quote What this reveals? John Proctor Elizabeth Proctor Abigail Williams Reverend Hale Reverend Parris Deputy-Governor Danforth Rebecca Nurse Tituba Giles Corey Mary Warren
13 13 Worksheet 11: Themes- THE CRUCIBLE THEME CONFLICT POWER AND ABUSE OF POWER EVIL SCAPEGOATS IDEALISM versus REALITY JUSTICE AND LAW and the importance of CONSCIENCE GUILT AND SUFFERING EXPLANATION Miller s play explores personal conflict; domestic conflict; communal conflict; religious conflict; land conflict highlighting the challenges in resolving conflict to everyone s satisfaction. The danger of absolute power is clear as it often results in corruption and abuse of power. It is essential that processes are transparent and the law is accountable at all times. During the McCarthy investigations he was able to name suspects and assume they were guilty. There were hundreds of hours of useless interrogations and suffering with very little proof. Some people were even put to death. In the play, Abigail and the girls are given total credibility and power over the community. What appears to be evil may not necessarily be so. It is dangerous to be black and white and judge on exteriors. Miller is asking us to explore the concept of evil rather that just follow rules and existing laws. A key aspect of an evil act is if there is an innocent victim. The worst evil is when the persecutors become fixated in carrying out the law without human understanding and compassion. Miller is showing us that nothing is so black and white. It appears human for us to want to apportion blame or make scapegoats of others, especially if they are different from us. This is especially so in times of limitations, crisis, recession. It has happened all through history and is very simplistic. History is filled with examples of wars caused by thinking in terms of us and them. Those persecuted during the witch hunts were clearly scapegoats. Proctor is the victim of his own idealism and chooses to die rather than live a flawed man. Perfection is rarely attained in society, but we tend to expect it in ourselves and our lives. A civilised society must allow individuals to follow their conscience. The Puritan approach to life did not allow any flexibility and was not open to what was really happening. Danforth was obsessed in following the letter of the law and not wanting to deviate to explore any problems fully. Thus true justice was denied and the law was made a mockery of. Psychologically, when people feel guilty, have endured suffering and see themselves as having less than others, there can be envy and anger towards those perceived as having it easier. At times it is easier to strike out at others and want them to suffer too. This is true of Abigail she wants John; Goody Putnam has lost seven babies and Parris is particularly unhappy in his job and community.
14 14 Worksheet 12: Structure and Style- THE CRUCIBLE Structure Text Connection Effect on the text and reader Historical play Tragedy Genre Allegory Play about ideas Play structure Based on an event that happened in history although Miller did say he changed /omitted the facts to suit the play. As in the Greek tragedy where the fatal flaw of the hero becomes his undoing. Such tragedies involve a loss of good name/ fortune and death at the end of the play. Proctor is the tragic hero. There is another parallel story that mirrors the witch hunt in the play and that is the story of McCarthy and his anti-communist trials that resembled the events of The Crucible in hysteria, lack of objectivity and lack of due process. Miller wants us to think deeply about the key themes and issues, especially remembering the importance of individual conscience. Has traditional, naturalistic setting; tight plot and is divided into four Acts or parts. Each act ends in a climax. Act One Sets the drama and introduces the characters Act Two Getting to trial Act Three- The Trial Act Four- Death of the hero John Proctor

16 16 The Crucible - At a Glance AUTHOR CONNECTIONS Arthur Miller CONNECTION TO The Crucible Miller s family faced financial ruin during The Great Depression of the 1930s. He experienced much suffering as did others in his community. His childhood was thus harsh. Being of Jewish descent, the persecution of Jews under Nazism would have instilled disgust and distrust of authority figures. Certainly it challenged people to consider the evil that seemed to be everywhere. Could not afford to go to College, so had to go to work to raise his own funds. He then enrolled at the University of Michigan and worked part time. He also enrolled in extra writing courses. His first play won a large prize. He kept on writing plays whilst working in radio. In 1949 he wrote Death of a Salesman which won a Pulitzer Prize and hit a chord with the American audience. The main character in this play was Willy Loman who is an ordinary salesman who believes in the American dream, but his life falls apart despite tying his hardest. The Crucible was published in 1953 and audiences were aware of the allegorical attack on McCarthyism. Miller was brought before the House of Un American Activities in 1954 on suspicions that he supported Communism. Miller was married to famous actress, Marilyn Monroe and he wrote her last film The Misfits, during which she suddenly died.

18 18 CONFLICT Prompts- The Crucible - Worksheet 1. Conflict cannot always be resolved, nor should it be. 2. The ideal solution of win win resolutions to conflict is clearly a myth. In all conflict there is always a winner and a loser. 3. Conflict comes from fear it is a response to fear. 4. As we are merely human, it is inevitable that conflicts will occur. What is really important is that there exists within every society a justice system that is fair, impartial and accountable. 5. Sometimes the world seems to be against you and you find yourself embroiled in a conflict you did not ask for and have no chance of escaping. 6. We need resilience and level headedness in dealing with conflict - as responding with anger is surely a disastrous road to further conflict and ruin. 7. Our world is littered with conflict of all types, and most people in this world have to learn to continue living despite this turmoil. 8. All conflicts begin with a reason, a want, and a need. Somebody s reason, want or need at the expense of another s. 9. Conflict is never worth the price it costs to society. 10. Conflict inevitably goes hand in hand with abuse of power and the need to control others.
