Had Reverand Hale been unable to come to Salem, how would the witch trials have varied?

2.) Why do the girls choose not to come clean to the people of Salem about what they were really doing in the woods, right after the events occurred? ]]> 2016-10-04 14:15:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128180021 https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128180240 1.- Would it be possible for a similar type of drama and panic happen today, as it happened in the Crucible?

Why do you think that Abigail does not stop the witch trials before Procter does? Wasn't the whole point to be with Proctor?

2.) Why do all the articles refer to Proctor as the "voice of reason"? Weren't there other characters that were also reasonable?]]> 2016-10-04 14:17:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128180892 https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128181307 Do you think the girls were faking?

How would the play have been different if the main character was a girl rather than John Proctor?

2. What role does language play in The Crucible? ]]> 2016-10-04 18:37:26 UTC https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128299212 https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128355792 1. Mary Warren says that she sewed the poppet; however, when John Proctor asks her to go to court, she almost refuses. Why would she second guess her decision? Is there any other reason besides Abigail accusing her as a witch? 
2. How did Puritan ideals affect how the town handled "witchcraft"? In both the book and article, 'Society vs. The Individual in Arthur Miller's The Crucible', they mention Puritan views. For example the article states, "the action takes place in 1692 [in a society] ...based on Puritan principles" (2). 'The Crucible' reads, "... a combine of state and religious power whose function was to keep the community together" (7). So explain how Puritan ideals played a role. ]]> 2016-10-05 00:15:19 UTC https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128355792 https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128361721 How do the events in act 2 affect the readers perception of the situation in which proctor and the others find themselves? ]]> 2016-10-05 01:14:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128361721 https://padlet.com/bregeth/8lq00s1knasp/wish/128366771 1.
