Arthur Miller shows how people can use mass hysteria as a tool that they can use to their advantage. In the case of the Crucible, the hysteria would be the fact that the 🤬 is in Salem and since everyone in Salem believes this accusation, it is true to them. This concept of mass hysteria leads to people accusing others of witchcraft just based off of "deals with the 🤬". This is show by people of Salem taking absurd situations and linking them with the smallest coincidences to prove the 🤬 is real and that people are carrying out his will.

Arthur Miller reveals that there is a certain way you have to act in Salem. The people expect everyone to be Christian and very religious. You should go to church and pray very often. If you aren't praying you should be working. Rebellion was a big part of the Crucible because a lot of people were sinning. Lying was a big sin and they tend to do a lot of that in the Crucible. Conformity vs Rebellion are opposites because it's what you should be doing vs what you shouldn't be doing.

Arthur Miler uses quotes like "she only thought to save my name!" (pg.105) In this scene Elizabeth is questioned if John Proctor had committed adultery. Giles, in Act one, he mentioned his wife's name because he was trying to fit in like the others who were naming people they suspect of witchcraft. "Martha, my wife. I have waked at night many a time and found her in a corner, readin' of a book." (pg. 37) Betty Parris shows signs of Integrity when she faked her sickness so she would not get in trouble. Abigail accuses her of faking it. "turns at once and goes up to Betty, and now, with fear in her voice: Betty? Betty doesnt move. She shakes her. Now stop this Betty! Sit up now!" (pg. 17) Abigail knows that Betty is faking the entire thing because they weren't supposed to be dancing in the woods, but because Betty is young and scared, she doesn't want her father to figure out that she was rebelling against his wishes, so she resorts to the only thing she can think of, which is faking a sickness.

"I find here a poppet Goody Proctor keeps. I have found it, sir.
And in the belly of the poppet a needle’s stuck...Abigail were stabbed tonight; a needle were found stuck into her belly"

" Martha, my wife. I have waked at night many a time and found her in a corner, readin’ of a book. Now what do you make of that?...  It discomfits me! Last night - mark this - I tried and tried and could not say my prayers. And then she close her book and walks out of the house, and suddenly - mark this - I could pray again!"

" That bloody mongrel Walcott charge her. Y’see, he buy a pig of my wife four or five year ago, and the pig died soon after. So he come dancin’ in for his money back. So my Martha, she says to him, “Walcott, if you haven’t the wit to
feed a pig properly, you’ll not live to own many,” she says. Now he goes to court and claims that from that day to this he cannot keep a pig alive for more than four weeks because my Martha bewitch them with her books! "

Abigail in a prime example of how mass hysteria affects a character and what they do. You Abigail is a master a manipulating others into getting what she wants by any means necessary and since there is a absurd belief everyone believes in it is a perfect tool for Abigail. A good example of Abigail doing this is when she stabbed her self with a needle to accuse Elisabeth with bewitching her with a voodoo doll. ( a little context is that Abigail knew Elizabeth was going to get gifted a doll and she knew that said doll would have a needle in it, so she stabbed her self and accused the person who would have the doll in there possession all to get her in trouble so that Abigail could get with her husband.)

Abigail Williams had an affair with this woman's husband, John Proctor. Abigail kept her feeling for John, while John wanted to stay with his wife. This led to Abigail obsessing over John, and John and Elizabeth's marriage would crumble. Elizabeth was given a doll with a needle in it by Mary Warren. It was figured out that Abigail was stabbed in the chest, and officers found this doll in Elizabeth's house. They then accused this women of witchcraft since they believed she used black magic to create a voodoo doll and stab Abigail. Of course, the truth was that Abigail set this up to try and get Elizabeth killed. So the mass hysteria effects Elizabeth since she is accused of working with the 🤬, and everyone believes its true, since there is very coincidental evidence. The deemed truth is contrary to the actual truth, since it was just a doll made by a child.

Giles-"i have heard it from an honest man who heard Putman say it."  Giles Corey was at first telling the truth in the beginning of the act to attempt to save his wife ,but he began to tell a story about Thomas Putman that changed how people perceived his voice. He began to tell a rumor about how Putman was getting people accused so he could steal their land. We know that Correy and Putman were having a land dispute earlier in the book so we can assume Correy didn't have a witness as he refused to give his name. Correy was at first telling the truth but when it didn't work he lied to further his goal of freeing his wife, and stopping Putman from getting more land.

Danforth is a judge that arrives in Salem to oversee the cases of accused witches. He prides himself in being a fair judge, and doesn't let the chaos of the town affect his decisions. Although, he comes into the cases already assuming that they are guilty of witchcraft. The hysteria and chaos of possible witchcraft make everyone assume that it's real. There is no real evidence that supports witchcraft, but since everyone assumes its real, they deem it the truth. Later in the story, once he begins to question the validity of witchcraft, he won't overturn the guilty charges because of his pride.

Analysis(John Proctor, Giles Corey, Abigail Williams)

John Proctor had struggled a lot with integrity and morality throughout the story. He constantly dealt with internal conflict about the affair and was fighting between integrity and morality. The problem was that even if he confessed to the affair and kept his integrity/honesty intact, his reputation still would have been damaged as a moral man. This is because John is known around Salem as an honest man who lives by honor. The impact this word has on Proctor is that it impacts his internal and external conflicts with his wife, Elizabeth.
Integrity and Morality impacts Giles Corey in many ways, more than one. Giles Corey was one of, if not the only trustworthy person in Salem. Throughout the beginning of the Crucible, Corey is depicted as a foolish man. Nearing the end of the Crucible Giles Cory was formed into more of a trustworthy and reliable character.
Abigail Williams was a very big part of the crucible, playing one of the biggest parts in the story. Like John Proctor, Elizabeth struggled with integrity/honesty and being morally in just. Abigail is the source of John Proctors wrong-doing and also suffered from keeping good morals. Abigail had lied about the affair and accused elizabeth proctor of witchcraft in order to change the subject off of the affair. She was morally injust and wasnt honest about the situation.

Proctor - Human Nature
Proctor represents human nature because he follows the guidelines of the Puritan religion very strictly. He also is in a position of power so he enforces the rules of the religion upon others. For example, in the beginning of act 1, he is discovered kneeling beside the bed preparing for prayer.

Judge Danforth - Human Nature
He was very stubborn and was not keen to the ideas of others. This stems from the nature of humans to be correct and to value their own opinion above the likes of others. He consistently follows the ruling of God, and that alone.

Arthur Miller reveals power can alter people’s morals and integrity to do the right thing. In, “The Crucible”, Danforth uses his power as judge to confirm accusations against multiple people in the trials. He does this without any solid evidence, and only words from the people of Salem like Abigail. This alters a judges moral to make the right decision based of concrete evidence, and he abuses the power bestowed upon him to hang innocent people.
