Why I Wrote The Crucible: An artist’s answer to politics by Arthur Miller

According to Miller in paragraph 2, how have his memories of the time he wrote The Crucible changed? What purpose for writing does this suggest?

Answer:

Miller explains that, when he currently thinks about the time he wrote The Crucible, he no longer feels the 'dead weight of the fear' he had at that time. He reflects on how over the generations fears might change.

Explanation:

Therefore, we can infer that he understands writing as a way to leave a document of those events, fears, and feelings, to remember them, and especially to learn from them.
