This question is about "the crucible".
John Proctor is a complex and layered character. He is extremely important to the plot and is one of the main characters. Like any complex character, Proctor has positive and negative points that govern his entire plot.
Among Proctor's negative points we can mention his concern with the appearance and his status. This is because in order not to lose the fame of a correct man, of judgment and of goodness, Proctor allows Abigail to create a plot of lies that leads countless people to suffer and causes an extreme stasis in the city. As a positive point we can mention his ability to reflect and take the blame for his mistakes, even after a great deal of damage had been done.
This positive point made Proctor redeem himself at a certain point in the narrative when he assumes his dishonesty in a public confession and brings a little peace to the region, even if it means his end.
Proctor has a very strong connection with a philosophy called McCarthyism that was very influential in 1950. McCarthyism is characterized as a period in which it was common and even encouraged to accuse people who were considered traitors to the capitalist system. This is related to Proctor, because Abigail started a series of accusations, as a way to punish Proctor for his actions.

Explanation:
This is mostly an opinion piece, so whatever side you choose make sure to provide reasoning (this can be ethos, pathos, or logos). If your not sure what side to choose, do some research first.
<h2 /><h2>Thesis</h2>
Complex sentence(s) answering all parts of the prompt briefly. Max 3 sentences. This should come AFTER background information on your topic. So in this case, provide a few details about crime, facial recognition, and public involvement/response that align with your thesis (answer to all prompt questions). As long as you answer the question in a "introduction" and list reasons in "body paragraphs", you will do great!
<h2>What are ethos, pathos, and logos?</h2>
The three artistic proofs!
LOGOS - appeal to logic and reasoning
Evokes a rational response. Readers get a sense of, "Oh, that makes sense"

- <u>An EXAMPLE is a scenario or situation </u>
<u />
ETHOS - appeal to ethics and morals

- <u>Anything else that may suggest something is right/wrong or moral/immoral</u>
PATHOS - appeal to emotions and psychological response

The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain” In (1926) was a short essay written by poet Langston Hughes for The Nation magazine. It became the manifesto of the Harlem Renaissance. In it Hughes said that black artists in America should stop copying whites, that they will never create anything great that way. Instead they should be proud of who they are, proud to be black, and draw from black culture. Not “white is right” but, as we would now say, “Black is beautiful”.
