Answer:

The "she" in the line is Abigail Williams.

Elizabeth believes she wants her dead because she (Abigail) loves Proctor and wanted to have him, thus wrongfully accusing Elizabeth Proctor of witchcraft.

This accusation will bring to light the problems within the couple and also bring to light the true character of Abigail Williams and the true nature of the witchery, thus driving the plot to further upheaval with the wrongful imprisonment and convictions of the women of the town and not of the real convicts.

Explanation:

Arthur Miller's <em>The Crucible</em> revolves around the Salem witch trials that overtook the whole town of Salem in the Puritan New England town of Massachusetts. The story involves the wrongful accusations of women by the younger girls in their efforts to escape the punishment that was meant for them.

Elizabeth Proctor's line <em>"She wants me dead I knew all week it would come to this"</em> is a direct accusation of Abigail's false accusation of Elizabeth's involvement in the witchery. The "<em>she</em>" is Abigail Williams and Elizabeth believes "<em>she</em>" wants her dead because she fears that Abigail wants to get rid of her and take her husband Proctor from her. She had known about the affair of her husband with Abigail and had been previously employed by the Proctors.

This accusation will further drive the plot as Abigail's accusations will bring to light the affairs of the whole town, her own affair with Mr. Proctor, and also lead to the wrongful conviction of witchcraft on Elizabeth. And this accusation will bring to light the whole domestic story of the infidelity of Proctor and his lechery. It will also ruin the husband-wife relationship, and also bring out the true nature of Abigail in front of everyone.

Different Perspectives How might a Wampanoag historian’s version of events differ from Bradford’s? Choose an episode from Of Ply
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The answer is "The history via a Wampanoag viewpoint would look at the events from its native people's side, where account from of the settlers came from England and create the Plymouth Colony would focus at the things through William Bradford".

Explanation:

In his article, entitled Of Plymouth Plantation, William Bradford, Governor of Plymouth Colony, provided an interpretation of history. For starters, they can point at Bradford's accounts for how they consider being America's first thanksgiving. Only at beginning of Thanksgiving, the 53 English colonists belong to an original party of102 men that suffered the voyage of a trail of tears from England to Asia as well as the ensuing sickness and winter problems.

The Wampanoag were an already existing nation of many dozen settlements in the area we are already calling Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Once European nations entered this land, heretofore unrecognized germs appeared to them on this land and the Portuguese suffered a lot from disease at the time of a difficult time of its people.

The Wampanoag mentioned whenever the Europeans came that the people could provide food for the advanced weapons that the English speakers had.
