Set during the 1692 Salem witch trials, Arthur Miller's "The Crucible" explores the dangers of hysteria, the power of lies, and the quest for truth. It serves as an allegory for McCarthyism, where the fear of communism led to a wave of accusations against innocent people. Through the story of John Proctor, a farmer who becomes entangled in the trials, Miller delves into themes of integrity, justice, and the consequences of choices made in a time of crisis. .

Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

Arthur Miller's classic parable of mass hysteria draws a chilling parallel between the Salem witch-hunt of 1692 - 'one of the strangest and most awful chapters in human history' - and the McCarthyism which gripped America in the 1950s. The story of how the small community of Salem is stirred into madness by superstition, paranoia and malice, culminating in a violent climax, is a savage attack on the evils of mindless persecution and the terrifying power of false accusations.

  • Great story about the Salem witch trials

    The product was not in a good condition. The using of a highlighter pen on various passages of the text and writing along either side of the text left this book unreadable. Had purchased this book as a gift for a friend, but it is only fit for the bin. Totally ruined the book and story.
