(Letter to John) John, Why is it that I stay here in this horrid dark place knowing only hypocrites? I cannot bear the crude stares they give me anymore. Now that you are gone I'm slowly being strangled from what others fear. They are here torturing me in my mind whilst nothing but spoken words come from their mouths. Aye! If I live the rest of my life, if not murdered, I will cry out witchery, until the last hypocrite is dead and their souls turn to evil. I never met any of this to happen to you, I only wanted good for you. I wanted you, and for us to be happy again as we once were. Now all I see is deceiving people. They have all turned on me yet my spirit, my soul.. has all changed utterly for you John Proctor, and only for you my love.
I can't believe John Proctor.He chose that ugly wife over me. I am way better than that good for nothing hag. She is ugly, old, and he deserves more than her. I am a young adventures teen waiting for a man like John to steal me away. Any man would be lucky to have me. She is an old hag who should just go find another man.I am a beautiful young woman and any man would be lucky to have me.But the one man I want is married to a woman who is not good enough for him. John should just leave her and marry me. I am better than her. I would be a way better wife than her. If she was so great John would have never came to me in the night seeking love. I guess I should thank her for not being able to please her own husband. If she had been
John Proctor is a very friendly man. Everyone likes being his friend. He is open, kind, helpful, upright, blunt-spoken, and just a good, hard-working man. John has lots of faith in God but little in humans. He knows that mankind is good but he also knows that they are weak and imperfect. “Proctor: I’ve heard you to be a sensible man, Mr. Hale. I hope you’ll leave some of it in Salem”.
Today I am writing to you, thinking about all of our lovely memories we have had in Salem as a wonderful married couple. I am writing this letter to you because I wanted to day my last few words to you before you are hanged. How did everything go from having a lovely life to, you being sentence to death because you confessed about being in contact with the devil? Also, I feel this is completely my fault, and I am the breakdown of our family. I have a lot of regrets from our marriage that I caused. I let Abigail get the best of me, and it ruined our marriage and now I am not going to have a husband anymore because you are going to die. I really regret our fight in our house after you got home. I remember
People’s true character is revealed through their actions. Their morals and ethics can be told from how they choose to act in a situation. In Arthur Miller’s The Crucible; the character of John Proctor is an honorable man despite having committed wrongful acts. He was able to redeem himself through acts that is considered courageous, such as when he refuses to contribute to the lie of witchcraft in Salem, when he fights for the people who were convicted of witchcraft and when he regrets being a dishonest man.
I believe that John Proctor from the play The Crucible written by Arthur Miller should have been proven innocent. John Proctor (March 30, 1632 – August 19, 1692) was a farmer and tavern keeper in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He was the son of John Proctor, Sr. and Martha Harper. He was hung to death on August 19, 1692 in Salem Village, Massachusetts Bay Colony during the Salem Witch Trials after being accused and convicted for witchcraft. (John_Proctor_(Salem_witch_trials).
Many actions dignify the traits of a tragic hero, but only few stand out. In the tragedy The Crucible by Arthur Miller, a tragic hero dies a good man when brought to trial over nothing more than child’s play and dishonesty. John Proctor is an honest, upright, and blunt-spoken man because he fought for what is right and found forgiveness in his fatal flaw. Although he exhibits these traits throughout the story, John dies a dynamic character.
"How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave my name!" (Proctor) John Proctor a farmer, and the husband of Elizabeth. He had an affair with Abigail Williams while she worked as a servant in his house. John is a powerful man in both build and character. " John Proctor is a tormented individual. He believes his affair with Abigail irreparably damaged him in the eyes of god, his wife Elizabeth, and himself. True, Proctor did succumb to sin and commit adultery; however he lacks the capacity to forgive himself." (www.cliffsnotes.com) John Proctor goes from being loved and well respected to a sinner and later on becoming a tragic hero which was surrounded by strong feelings and beliefs.
Despite his being an insignificant and non-status-holding member of society, John Proctor is a much-respected man in Salem. However, in determining his fate, he continues to make several critical and irreversible mistakes that harm his reputation. For fear of being exiled in a town where reputation plays such a large role in their daily lives, Proctor initially tries to hide his crime of adultery, but his affair with Abigail triggers a major series of events in Salem, where simple, unproven accusations escalate to a far larger issue: “Abby—you mean to cry out still others?” “If I live, if I am not murdered, I surely will, until the last hypocrite is dead” (Miller 150). In the end, Proctor decides that for the sake of his desperate circumstances, it would be better to admit to his affair, but by the time he decides to reveal his crime, it is too late to reverse all past actions. He is convicted of witchcraft and doomed to be hanged, later, when given a chance to live, he caves in and confesses to seeing the Devil, only to go back even on this last lie, because he does not have the heart to be freed and saved by a lie.
In the book, The Crucible by Arthur Miller, John Proctor is a farmer and a prominent member of society. However, he had an affair with a girl in town, Abigail Williams which leads to his wife being convicted of witchcraft and himself convicted of dealing with the devil. John Proctor is a strong and effective speaker and proves his point with the three rhetorical appeals and devices such as personification, similes, metaphors and tone.
I know it's been a while so I have a lot to talk about. There has been so much going on from John Proctor, to Betty, to my parents. I wish everything would just work out how it’s suppose to, but everyone keeps messing it up! I keep getting flashbacks from seeing my parents being killed beside me. It haunts me. I don't really put my faith and love into anyone anymore because of that. But, for some reason I cant help feeling this way towards John Proctor. I miss him every second I am not with him. Whenever i'm in my room I feel like he's outside looking up at my window waiting for me. I know he loves me but he just cant admit it anymore? I'm scared he's pulling away. I love him so much and I need him. We are soul mates and are meant to be together
“How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave me my name!” said John Proctor, actor in The Crucible. John Proctor is a very passionate man when it comes to his name. He doesn't want his kids and future generations of his name have to have a bad reputation because of the name Proctor. John and I have trait similarities such as being sinners, hard-working human beings, and being proud of the things we do.
John Proctor Rest in Peace John Proctor A very caring man He wasn't afraid to speak his mind He saw the best in people, and believed they would do what is right.
John Proctor’s decision to die for his name was the wrong one because despite his attempt to die an honest man, his name would remain tainted by his sinful affair regardless of whether he decided to live or die. The reality of Proctor’s decision is that he abandoned his wife, their three sons, and their unborn child for an ultimately futile act of self-sacrifice made for the approval of the townspeople. Throughout the course of the book, Proctor’s guilt from his affair with Abigail continuously guides his decisions and the moment it came time to decide whether to confess and live or maintain his innocence and hang was no different. Proctor decided that he would rather die than taint his name, but this decision stems from the guilt which constantly
Love is not just a word but an action. This statement is very self-explanatory in most cases. Like in The Crucible, John Proctor is the tragic hero of this play, in which his wife and many others fall victim to false allegations of witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts.
No matter the rumors or the adultery that you have committed in the past I will always love and care for you just as much. We are here for each other as husband and wife. And I will stand by you through this terrible imprisonment and execution. These past few months have been a struggle as the truth comes out between what happened with you and Abigail but I know I must keep my head held high and know that it was all an accident and that you and I have a bond of love stronger than anything. My love for you is so strong that although you have caused me to lose much faith in you, I feel that you just “Do as you wish, then.” (Miller 51). Whatever I say to you has gone in one ear and out the other. This process of watching you deal
