Unlock the more straightforward side of The Crucible with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!
This engaging summary presents an analysis of
The Crucible by Arthur Miller, a vivid allegory of the mass hysteria that swept through the town of Salem during the Salem Witch Trials. In spite of its historical subject matter, the play was chillingly topical at the time it was written: the 1950s were marked by Mc Carthyism, where accusations of Communism were rife and many Americans (including Miller himself) were hauled before the House Un-American Activities Committee to answer for their behaviour. Arthur Miller is considered one of the most influential dramatists of the 20th century, and
The Crucible was one of his best-known plays. It remains popular today, and new productions of the play are frequently performed.
