Abby vs. Parris
Arthur Miller wrote a play, the time setting of this place was during the 1950’s. The title of the play was called The Crucible. When he was writing the play he was thinking of the puritan era, and the story took place in a town called salem and, and the story is about witch trials and witch hunts. All of the characters that are used in this play, were real people. Arthur went to massachusetts to review characters for the play. So there for the characters are based on real people. Arthur went and reviewed historical accounts from salem. The characters that i am going to be referring to today is abby and parris and see what they are like and how they are similar and different.

Abby is also known as abigail and she is the other girl that was dancing around in the forest with betty. Parris also thinks that abby was involved in the witchcraft. She is also the girl that had an affair with proctor. She tries to hide the fact that she casted a spell with tituba, because it would expose the fact that she got with proctor. She also had to lie about the whole thing so she didn't get caught about plotting elizabeth's death.

They do not look very similar. Parris is a male and abigail is a women. Although abigail is parris's niece and paris is abigail's uncle. Abby is a very good liar and she is good at doing everything bad. She is just a bad girl in general, she is very smart though. In her case that's not good because that's what helps her get away with everything. Then there is proctor, he is not as bad as abby because he doesn't lie as much and isn't very smart and wily. He is just very unliked by the town and the person that really does not like him is john proctor. He is just really struggling to find his right position in the town without being liked and getting forced out by everybody. You can almost see that they are in the same family or that they are related because they are both disliked in there own way and they aren't that nice of people. So it makes you wanna kind of think about that and look at the rest of the family and see if they are the same way and not liked
