Why did Miller choose the Salem Witch Trials as the basis for The Crucible?

English

B...He felt the events best mirrored the events of his time.

During Miller's time there was a witch hunt for communists in America. People were accusing neighbors or other members of the community of being communist if the person was someone they didn't like. The fear of communist spies in America brought out a hysteria amongst the people similar to the Salem Witch Trials.

Who the gardener really is in the story "The Gardener" ?​
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

There are many explorations to the question: who the gardener was. Some people say that he was only an employee. Some others say that he was Michael’s father, who was working there only to live by the grave of Michael. And the rest even argue that he was lord Christ himself as well. He said ‘son’ rather than ‘nephew’ while leading her to the grave.

But, I think that the gardener was the father of Michel himself. I think so only because the writer says that there was infinite compassion / endless love in his eyes. A human being who has the utmost respect and value for their ones only can have such an attribute. So, the gardener was Michel’s father. If it’s so, we can also guess that he had forgiven Helen for her crime.

Read the excerpt from Anthem
Harman [31]

Answer:

They suggest that reality exists outside the mind, whether or not a person can perceive it

Explanation:

Objectivism is a philosophy that stimulates interest in rational growth and independent thinking. With these factors, individuals would be productive, honest, direct, responsible and fair, even if they didn't realize it.

From reading the text above, we can see that the words "clear sight and clean sour" are totally related to the concept of objectivism. This is because in addition to emphasizing rationality within real situations, they suggest that reality exists outside the mind, whether a person can perceive it or not.

The superlative form of an adjective should only be used when comparing
expeople1 [14]
A superlative compares something to everything else. For example: This book is the best book there is. Here the superlative is "the best" which compares "this book" to all the other books that exist. Of course, you can narrow that and say something like: I'm the tallest person in my class. Now you're only talking about the people in your class and not everyone who exists. But, you're still doing the comparison against all the people/things in the set boundaries.
