The Crucible is a book written by Arthur Miller in the 1950s and is about the Salem Witch Trials. Although there Proctors'y differences between The Crucible and the actual witch trials Miller had good reason for making the changes for the book.

Some of the things Miller changed to get the reader to side with the people on trial. Abigail Williams and John Proctors ages were changed. Abigail WiJohns'ss age 17 even though the real girl was only 11, but he never mentioned that John Proctor was 60( Burns 2) He changed theJohns's so people would not think Proctor was so bad even though he did have an affair. Elizabeth was 41 and was not Johns first wife. Elizabeth, 41, was his third wife.( 2) Living with them was their daughter aged 15, their son who was 17, and Johns 33-year-old son from his first marriage.( 2) These facts were left out to let the reader think John Proctor was a generally good person who had made a mistake. He again did not want Proctor to look bad because he was looked at as the good guy, or underdog, of the book.

Miller changed some things so it looked more absurd and incredible that these people were being convicted of witchcraft. He wanted the book to show that the whole town had gone crazy. There was not a wild dance in the woods like the book portrays. There never was any wild dancing rite in the woods led by Tituba( 2) He put this into the book to make it look like the peSouthwho caused the trials and made the accusations were the ones practicing witchcraft. Tituba was not from Barbados and Miller probably made her from there so it would seem more likely that she practices voodoo. she was Amerindian, probably Suoth American Arawak (1). The first girls to be afflicted by witchcraft were not Ruth Putnam and Betty Parris.

2. In a short essay, identify two symbols you find important in The Great Gatsby. How do these symbols serve to develop the stor
sineoko [7]
Two symbols that are important in The Great Gatsby are the color green and a clock. Green is important as it represents money and Gatsby's hope. These two ideas are tied together because Gatsby believes that if he builds himself into a rich enough person, Daisy will take notice and come back to him. Green is also the color of the light at the end of Daisy's dock which acts as a symbol for her and the love Gatsby is holding out for her. At the end of the novel it says "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us." This quote shows that the light represents hope, but that that hope keeps getting further and further away instead of getting closer. In the same way money can be lost, so can the promise of the future you want. Green ties these ideas together to symbolize Gatsby's hope.
The clock on Nick's mantle also serves as an important symbol for time. Gatsby is trying to make up time when he meets Daisy again, and a reoccurring theme in the novel is that you can't repeat the past. When Gatsby and Daisy meet again for the first time in many years, Gatsby knocks Nick's clock off its mantle. This represents the time that he and Daisy have lost, and how it is going to slip away from them again. Later, Gatsby says "‘Can’t repeat the past?’ he cried incredulously. ‘Why of course you can!’" in response to Nick's telling him that it would be impossible to do just that. This falling clock shows how desperate Gatsby is to make up that time and how precarious trying to do that is.
