For what does Reverend Parris condemn his niece, Abigail?

English
1 answer:
Tju [1.3M]2 years ago
3 0

He convicted her of dancing in the forest at night with other girls.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Reverend Parris is a very traditional man who wants to keep his and his family appearances up to society's standards.
  • This includes keeping to puritanical concepts and moving away from everything that religion deems wrong. That was essential to his reputation.
  • Dancing in the forest at night was considered incorrect as it referred to pagan cults and activities associated with witchcraft.
  • For that reason, when Reverend Parris found out that his niece was dancing the night away in the forest, he reprimanded her strongly.

He did this because his niece could be associated with witchcraft and that would cause his reputation to be damaged.

"Ick!" Victoria groaned while shoving the empty measuring cup into her mother's hands. "That was the worst taste ever! I hate that medicine!" yelled Victoria. Her mother just rolled her eyes and continued to put the medicine away and wash the cup. Victoria had stayed home from school that day, so her mother took her to the doctor. She was told her daughter had a cold. "Go lay down and rest, darling." said Victoria's mother. "NO!!! I think I'm gonna die and its your fault mom!" yelled dramaticly by Victoria. Her mother rolled her eyes and tucked her in on the couch. Victoria fell asleep soon after, and her mother finally got some quiet time. She was dreading tomorrow when Victoria would bring home schoolwork she missed, and demand her mothers help. She sighed and said, "Tomorrows going to be a long, long day."
