Reverend Hale False Confession
687 wordsThroughout history, and Arthur Miller's The Crucible, the name by which one is called, is more than just a name. Your name represents your actions, your reputation, and your beliefs. Your name can carry on after your life as a proud example of hero, or conversely, as an example of a liar. Just as important as one's name, is the signature that it represents. By signing something, one shows that they recognize what is written and wishes to show support for what it represents. A signature is as uni...

The townspeople do not avoid the subject of Frome due to disapproval, but rather a sense of such extreme sadness that it is difficult to speak about. This task is to find out about Ethan Frome's past. More specifically the narrator want...

Jury Of Her Peers Making Fun
1,108 wordsDifferences and Stereotypes Between Genders in: Susan Glaspells A Jury of Her Peers The Author Susan Glaspell shows an obvious stereotypical attitude by men towards women in her story, A Jury of Her Peers. This was most likely inclusive of the majority male frame of thinking many years ago, at the time this incident in the story took place. Graspell wrote the story in 1917, so we are sure that the setting dated back at least that far, possibly further. Though the female gender had come quite a l...

Didn Acute T Black And White
1,579 wordsI agree that Arthur Miller engaged the audience to a large extent, and he also manages to get across a historical story at the same time and prove a point. I believe that through extensive character detail he has made it possible for us to understand exactly how the different characters are feeling, and why they behave the way they do. Miller also plays on our emotions by amplifying our own faults through the characters, as in the case of Abigail using the whole situation to her advantage, and b...

She is the one who triggers off a sense of hate in the play. She tempts John Proctor into lechery, and to escape punishment for dancing,...
