The Crucible
The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, is a play about the Salem Witch Trials, in Salem, Massachusetts, in the year 1692. In this play, the characters are obsessed with goodness, and evil. In the 17th century, it was not acceptable to be evil, or have evil thoughts. Most fun was also considered evil. Characters in this play are caught "dancing," and it somehow turns into a witch-hunt. There are many evils in this play, like, greed, murder,
law I brought, and what I touched with my bright confidence, it died; and where I turned the eye of my great faith, blood flowed up." (Act 4, Page 132). Manipulation, lying, and obsession were the main evils in this play. Because of these evils, Salem turned evil. Even though sometimes, the characters evils were supposed to be for good, the bottom line was made for evil. This play was a constant battle of good versus evil.
