The storm had suddenly come upon them, surprising the two boys. Their jackets offered little protection from the rain. Jack led the way to the cabin; it was almost hidden by the trees. Within minutes they stood on the porch. The door opened and they entered, throwing their backpacks on to the floor. They shivered; the room was cold. Worse, it was damp.


They could not see in the darkness, so Jack felt for the lantern, which he knew was on the table. If they had started out earlier, they would not have been caught in the rain and unable to reach the cabin before the night. A warm fire and supper would certainly help.


When the lantern was lit, Jack gasped. The doors to the cupboard, which his father had filled, were opened, revealing empty shelves. Walking back on to the porch, he stared at the empty place where wood had been stacked.


Obviously, someone had been warm and well-fed at their expense. Phil, he knew, would accept his apology. That was a small consolation for the uncomfortable night they would have. At lease a lesson had been learned; next time he would prepare for any emergency that might occur.

Which theme would best describe Proctor's final decision in the play?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

First options: Personal honor determines a person's self-worth and value.

Explanation:

"The Crucible" (1953) is Arthur Miller's tragedy play. The play dramatized and fictionalized version of Salem Witchcraft trials of 1692-93.

John Proctor is play's protagonist who along with many other villagers and his wife is wrongly accused of performing witchcraft which in Puritan society of that time was a crime punishable by death.

In the earlier part of the play John Proctor hides his adultery with Abigail because of public dishonor. But when he later realizes that it is not public honor what matter most rather personal integrity and honor. So, he admits his crime in front of court.

In later part of trial he is asked to confess publicly in written for his involvement in witchcraft, and save his life. He accepts it with reluctance, but when court asks him to wrongly name and testify against other members of the village, he refuses and tears part the confession document. He accepts death only because of personal and religious integrity. At this point of the play he is aloof from public honor or dishonor and wants to redeem himself by not accusing anyone wrongly. Proctor understands his preference of personal and religious integrity will take him to heaven after his death.

This thought is also expressed by Elizabeth (his wife) when she refuses to persuade Proctor to accept court's offer of accusing others and saving himself. She says,<em> </em><em>“He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!”</em>
