3 0

Karen Thompson states that fear can actually guide us and instead of calling it fear, we should call it stories, because everyone is the readers and authors of their fears.

Explanation:

Karen Thompson Walker, one of the best selling author in one of her TED Talk 'What Fear Can Teach Us' propsed that fear can actually help us to prepare for the future events and make us more calm if we work at to listen to our fear.

Karen states that the right kind of fear can push our imagination. She says that a person should learn to reflect on thier fears rather than reacting. Every fear teaches us something, Karen wants us to ask this question as to 'Perhaps what this fear is teaching me?' and we have halfway conquered our fear.

"The Crucible" is an allegory, a symbolic story with different layers of meaning. Different characters and elements from "The Cr
cupoosta [38]

We can combine the elements of "The Crucible" with the elements of Red Scare/McCarthyism as follows:

  • A. Witchcraft = 6. Communism
  • B. Abigail Williams = 4. Senator McCarthy
  • C. The Devil's Book = 1. Blacklist
  • D. Salem Courts = 2. HUAC
  • E. John Proctor = 3. Arthur Miller
  • F. Hysteria = 5. The Red Scare
  • G. The Forest = 8. The Soviet Union
  • H. Accused Witches = 7. Suspected Communists

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Arthur Miller, the screenwriter of "The Crucible" wanted to write a story that represented the moment of collective madness that was manifesting in the USA, due to fear of communism.
  • This wave of dread and madness was established by Senator McCarthy who started a wave of accusations from people involved in communism in the same way that Abigail Williams accused people of accusing people of witchcraft in play.
  • People accused of communism, who were tried by HUAC, are represented by people accused of witchcraft, who were tried by Salem Courts.
  • The Soviet Union was considered the cradle of communism and in the play, the forest was considered the place where witches arose.
  • For this reason, people became hysterical in fear of communism, just as in play people became hysterical in fear of witchcraft.
  • People accused of being involved in communism went into a kind of blacklist, just like in the play, where people accused of witchcraft are believed to have their name in the devil's book.

Arthur Miller set himself up as a play character, played by John Proctor, who tried to report on the abuses caused by Abigail, but ended up being heavily punished.
