The Crucible By Arther Miller - 847 Words

Rationale-Word Count-222 The Crucible is a play written by Arther Miller in 1953. The play revolves around the witch hunt that occurred in Salem, Massachusetts, in 1692. The trial at the end of Act III is the climax of the play and determines the fate of the major protagonists. My Written Assignment is an alternative scene at the end of Act III at the Salem meeting house when Proctor is being trailed. The aim of this task is to show that even if Elizabeth admits to Proctor’s act of committing adultery, the outcome of Proctors death would not change. This is to demonstrate the inevitability of tragedy due to the arbitrary nature of the theocratic court and the cunningness of Abigail. In order to adhere to the style of a pastiche, Arthur Miller’s literary style will be employed. I will adopt simple vernacular and old-fashioned grammar and vocabulary appropriate to its time period(1692). Moreover, I will adhere to the personalities and state of mind of the characters through the use of dialogues and stage directions. For example, Abigail’s state of mind changes significantly throughout the task. Her desperation is portrayed through the use of hyphens to indicate stuttering. Similarly, Proctor’s hopelessness is shown through the use of a long monologue with a series of questions and exclamations to show his utter disappointment.
