His house stood in the “town” - but we today would hardly call it a village. The meetinghouse was nearby, and from this point outward - toward the bay or inland - there were a few small-windowed, dark houses snuggling against the raw Massachusetts winter. Salem had been established hardly forty years before. To the European world the whole province was a barbaric frontier inhabited by a sect of fanatics who, nevertheless, were shipping out products of slowly increasing quantity and value."

SETTING

THEME

Premature judgement can be destructive.

Quote

"The Salem folk believed that the virgin forest was the Devil’s last preserve, his home base and the citadel of his final stand. To the best of their knowledge the American forest was the last place on earth that was not paying homage to God. "

SYMBOLISM

The Forest

The forest symbolizes the devil and evil in The Crucible.

CHARACTER

CONFLICT

Abigail vs. Elizabeth

Abigail had an affair with Elizabeth's husband, John, and was fired over it. Abigail was in love with John and harbored a vendetta over it. So she began accusing people of witchcraft  in order to get rid of Elizabeth and have John to herself.

"Let either of you breathe a word, or the edge of a word, about the other things, and I will come to you in the black of some terrible night and I will bring a pointy reckoning that will shudder you. And you know I can do it; I saw Indians smash my dear parents’ heads on the pillow next to mine, and I have seen some reddish work done at night, and I can make you wish you had never seen the sun go down!"

"Never in this world! I know you, John—you are this moment singing secret hallelujahs that your wife will hang!"













Situational Irony

Parris is supposed to be a man of God but his main motivation is saving his own reputation.

"Child. Sit you down. Now look you, child-if you trafficked with spirits in the forest, I must know it, for surely my enemies will, and they‘ll ruin me with it"

TheME SONG

Literary device

The Adults Are Talking by The Strokes

This is the perfect theme song for Abigail and especially her relationship with John Proctor. Abigail is obsessed with getting John's attention and has deluded herself into thinking he loves her over Elizabeth. In the end John is crucified and shamed as a result of their affair.

"I know you think of me when you think of her...Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to"

"We can't help it if we are a problem/We are tryin' hard to get your attention"

"They will blame us, crucify and

shame us"
