How does the creation of the four hundred list contribute to the idea of keeping up with the joneses

English

Ierofanga [76]4 years ago
5 0
"The Four Hundred" list was a phrase coined by Ward McAllister, a rich New Yorker who thought that there were exactly 400 people in New York who mattered. This elite was strictly limited, in his opinion, which means that people within this circle held up to each other, disregarding the outside world and always trying to become better than the neighbor: they wanted to spend more, live in bigger homes, have more expensive cars, all in hope to better show off their top position on the social ladder.

Which theme would best describe Proctor's final decision in the play?
Katena32 [7]

In Arthur Miller's The Crucible, the theme that best describe John Proctor's final decision is: Personal honor determines a person's self-worth and value.

Proctor's desicion of refusing to provide a false confession to save his life is actually his final redemption. At the end of the play, when he tears apart the written confession, he understands that his honor is more important than his public image and he is ready to accept his destiny. Furthermore, his wife, Elizabeth realizes that John, even with his flaws,  is a good man who is trying to save his soul and he will not yield to pressure.
