End Of The Story Arthur Miller
748 wordsThe story of The Crucible, by Arthur Miller, shows a very good test of morality. John Proctor is internally conflicted throughout the entire play. His struggles change in each act. But, he is not a character deserving of pity because all of his struggles are self-inflicted. His affair with Abigail is at the root of most of them, the others are a result of stubborn pride. John Proctors Attitude changes by the end of the story and he seems kind of like a different person from the beginning. In act...

Feminist Character In Chaucer Wife Of Bath Tale

John Proctor Four Lines
534 wordsDuring the time of the Salem witchcraft trials, a number of wrongfully accused citizens were killed, due to the mass hysteria that had enveloped the community. Among these Puritan citizens is John Proctor, whom I believe dies a hero, not only because he refuses to surrender to the corruption in society, as did the rest that were put to death, but also because, in doing so, he is able to relieve himself of a guilty conscience. John Proctor is a respected man who chooses to die for what he hopes w...

John Proctor Innocent People
952 wordsThe title of Author Miller s play the Crucible fits the story in many ways. There are many definitions for a crucible but mainly two of them fit the story most.
