Answer and Explanation:

When they are judging Martha Corey for witchcraft, the lawsuit is interrupted by Giles Corey who shouts that he has evidence that Martha is not a witch and that she has been wrongly accused. To contain this scandal, Giles is taken to another room and some men decide to speak to him, among these men are Danforth and Hathorne who, despite being shocked by the interruption, showed very different reactions, which say a lot about the personality of each one.

Danforth reacts in an extremely calm and focused manner, he does not believe that Corey has enough evidence to reverse the outcome of the trial. This calmness is the result of the reputation that Danforth created in being affectionate with witches, he knows that nobody will stop believing in him to believe in Giles.

Hathorne, on the other hand, does not have such a good reputation and questions Giles for this behavior, as well as reproaching him for "roarin" and causing a scene in court. Hathorne is nervous and afraid that he will not be effective in a trial and that it will damage his reputation.

How does Kafka’s use of absurdity relate to the social critique found in "The Metamorphosis"? How is "The Metamorphosis" an exis
Svetach [21]

Kafka criticises the emptiness and meaningless aspects of life. In " The Metamorphosis" ,Gregor 's lifestyle is too boring since all he does is to work to support his family. This absurdity , which means that people's ordinary life is shallow, is represented by the insect. Gregor becomes an insect and no one in the story seems to be surprised.  Therefore, people's feelings do not exist since Grgor's family tries to adapt and live with <em>the insect</em>. Life is a matter of having money to live and people have to accept the production or financial structure to survive. Besides, " The Metamorphosis" is an existentialist text because it shows the way human beings  are thrown into a  world they have not chosen and if they want to change  their fate, this change will depend on them. Gregor has not chosen to become an insect ,but he has not chosen to work all day long to support his family and not to have time for love or pleasure,either. However, when he is an insect, he can have some fun looking at pictures or listening to music.
