The book I chose to read is The Crucible by Arthur Miller. The movie I am comparing the book too is the 2004 adaptation directed by Nicholas Hytner. The story is about the Salem witch trials and the controversy of the event. The film does tend to have some differences compared to the book. One of the big differences is that in the book, Abigail leaves Salem after John Proctor is placed in prison. But in the film adaptation, she visits John in prison. The director might have done this to show a stronger bond between Abigail and John, as they had an affair in the story.

John’s wife Elizabeth is accused of witchcraft, and taken to prison. John goes to court where he confesses to adultery, and then is wrongfully accused of being a wizard. He is given the option to confess and be let free but the court would need a signed confession and it would be hung on the church door.

For centuries, humans have utilized defense mechanisms to explain the unfortunate occurrences of humanity that we are incapable of conceiving through our narrow, defensive minds. Humans most commonly scapegoat their enemies, or the entirely innocent, for their internal issues as a means of coping for their insecurities or explaining the irrational or biased situations they find themselves in. Similarly, others cope just as easily by lying to themselves, which can establish a false reality in the mind of the self-deceiver and, ultimately, leads to fallacies in logic.

The Crucible is about the Salem Witch Trials. The play takes place in the town of Salem, Massachusetts, in the spring of 1692, which we learned before the events in the play actually take place. The town minister, Reverend Parris, caught a group of girls, including his niece Abigail, dancing in the woods. The girls actually were trying to practice witchcraft, and Abigail drank chicken blood as part of a charm to kill a woman named Elizabeth Proctor, whom she had an affair with her husband named John and she wants Elizabeth dead. Sense the girls got caught dancing outside in the woods, Abigail is scared that they will be punished for these acts of witchcraft, so the girls start pinning the blame on others, so that it would drag attention away from them and so that it would help their case in not getting punished or in deep trouble.

Gender is a social construct, created by society to put labels on people and lower them in society. Well technology, gender is a concept that describes how societies determine and manage sex categories.

I believe that the antagonist Abigail wanted to marry John Proctor, not because she loved him, but because of what his last name represents. This essay will analyze Arthur Miller's treatment of women in The Crucible through Marry Warren, Elizabeth Proctor and Abigail Williams.
