Answer:

In 1953, when The Crucible was first performed, the United States was deep in the throes of the Red Scare. Senator Joseph McCarthy led a witch hunt against supposed communists, targeting various celebrities, government officials, and even writers, many of whom were blacklisted because of their alleged ties to the Communist party.

The Crucible itself can be considered an allegory for McCarthyism. The mass hysteria caused by McCarthy's accusation of treason and sedition draw striking similarities to the Salem witch trials, in which innocent people were tried and convicted on flimsy evidence, just as they were during the Red Scare.

Arthur Miller drew source material from the real-life Salem witch trials, which began in 1692, the year the play is set. At that time, Salem was populated and ruled by Puritans, whose repressive theology drives a group of young girls to accuse others of witchcraft to distract from their own sins and desires.

Which two lines in this excerpt from john keats’s “Ode to Autumn” reflect the theme of growth and maturation
djverab [1.8K]

The poem "Ode to Autumn", written by John Keats in 1819, reflects the theme of growth and maturation in the following lines:

"(...) And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn; hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft the red-breast whistles from a garden-croft; (...) "

In this poem the author wrote about the Autumn's cycle and the life's cycle, using the last prhases of the poem as the declining of the Autumn' season and the ineluctable end of the life. That is the main reason to write about full-grown lambs and the signing of the hedge-crickets, because when winter is coming the harvest is ended and animals have migrated, so the sounds of the animals mentioned in those lines are recovered only when spring comes.

The end of Autumn then, represent the idea of the declining in the life cycle.
