Question

A 5 paragraph on the crucible

Answer 1

Answer:

Crucible is a famous drama by Arthur Miller.

Explanation:

• Inspired by true events from the late 17th century in Salem, a place in Massachusetts that became known precisely for witch-hunting and their public trial, Miller wrote Crucible in the early 1950s.
• But the author is actually talking about the phenomenon of mass hysteria that plagued American society during the "McCarthy" era (Joseph Raymond McCarthy), when a secret investigation into a large number of government members suspected of spying on behalf of the Communists was launched in the United States.
• Miller noted the similarity between that event and the Salem witch hunt.
• In doing so, this story acquires deeper meanings, expressing the intolerance, blindness, and persecution of people, ideas, at any given time.
• The writer has sharply attacked McCarthy, as an idiot who is chasing honest Americans because they have a different opinion from the senator.
