Male Dominated Society Male And Female

After reading Trifles, one may think about the
book called, Men Are from Mars and Women Are from
Venus by Dr. John Gray. Both works tend to
illustrate the vast differences between the two
sexes. Due to such differences, women are often
pitted against men. Mention the word feminist and
most people think of the modern womens movement.
Long before the bra burning of the 1960 s,
however, writers were writing about the lives and
concerns of women living in a male dominated
society. In Trifles, the wo...

Save His Wife Order To Save

The Crucible Arthur Miller is one of the most
famous American playwrights. Despite the fact that
Death of a Salesman is considered the work that
made him world-famous, The Crucible was
undeservedly forgotten by the public. The Crucible
was designed as a historic drama based on
historically refracted reflections of the real
events, - the witch trial of 1692 in Salem, one of
the most fanatical centers of Puritanism, - that
is whimsically connected with McCarthy period. The
spectrum of emotional to...

to be analyzed in this report are John Proctor,
Abigail and Reverend Hale. In The Crucible, John

bondage by his sin to a strong, righteous man who
will die for the truth. This drastic change in his
character is the basis of his significance to the
outcome of the play. The unyielding faith of
Proctors wife, the influence of the people who
share his beliefs and his triumph over an inner
struggle help ...

Salem Witch Trials Reverend Hale
1,866 words
Back in the 1950 s, when insecurity permeated the
air, and people were ruled by fear, Arthur Miller
wrote a play, which defined the line between
insecurity and fear. The Crucible was a remade
story of the carnal Salem Witch trials, in which
many innocent victims lost their lives. Through
this play Miller is trying to convey the message
that death is not in our possession; we are not
messengers of God. Only God decrees those who are
to die, because God is in heaven and we are on
Earth and we cann...

Hale And Mrs Common Bond
1,001 words
Discovering Mrs. Wright The play Trifles, by Susan
Glaspell, is an examination of the different
levels of early 1900 s mid-western farming
society's attitudes towards women and equality.
The obvious theme in this story is men discounting
womens intelligence and their ability to play a
mans role, as detectives, in the story. A less
apparent theme is the empathy the women in the
plot find for each other. Looking at the play from
this perspective we see a distinct set of
characters, a plot, and a f...
