The tone of the novel was almost a satire of the 1950’s, but he was actually going through a time of panic and his own fear and depression. ]]> 2017-11-30 17:30:55 UTC https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211970592 https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211978784 It is interesting how he chose another event in history to project his social commentary upon, and did not simply write a story about McCarthyism. Using witchcraft helps demonstrate how absurd these accusations are from a third party’s point of view. ]]> 2017-11-30 17:44:40 UTC https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211978784 https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211979507 What surprised us was that when Harold Clurman, the director of Incident at Vichy showed the cast film of Hitler speeches, they giggled because of the grin on his face and his body language, while back then people were afraid of Hitler for these reasons. ]]> 2017-11-30 17:45:55 UTC https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211979507 https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211979636 What surprised us was that he visited Salem and he read transcripts of the witch craft trials ]]> 2017-11-30 17:46:08 UTC https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211979636 https://padlet.com/amy_cox4/ohtsimlyorei/wish/211979644 It interested us that he was able to incorporate so much of his life and the world around him into the Crucible
