1. Arthur Miller used the inspiration he got from reading the <em>"Devil in Massachusetts" by Marion L. Starke</em>, which gave a modern perspective to the Salem Witchcraft Trials, to write his book <em>"The Crucible." </em>

<em>"The Crucible"</em> likened the HUAC (The House Un-American Activities Committee) trials of those suspected of belonging to Communist or Socialist groups to the Salem affairs.

In colonial Massachusetts, many innocent people got branded as witches and wizards without substantiation. Some people lost their lives by hanging, while many were imprisoned and suffered humiliation between 1692 and 1693.

2. The essence of Miller's message in <em>"The Crucible" </em>about those who stood fast against HUAC is that <em>good people have the responsibility to question </em><em>corrupt authority</em>, no matter where it occurs. Miller concluded that despite threats to lives and reputations,<em> "good people should always stand against injustice."</em>

Thus, Arthur Miller carefully wrote <em>"The Crucible" </em>to resuscitate the Salem Witchcraft Trials, showing that injustice and corruption could wear the <em>garbs of authority</em>. He also challenged McCarthyism, which was at the root of HUAC.
