McKay Yorgason Mrs. Jensen English 10 September 26, 2014 The Crucible is a very accurate depiction of misguided injustice due to all the dishonesty, misinformation, and ulterior motives that brought about the Salem Witch Trials. There were many different causes that could have started it all that include, but are not partial to, corrupted leaders, obvious lies, and heavy theocracy. The Trials were definitely not solely the product of one or two origins. One of these ‘origins’ is the pride and…

more traumatising than Wellington’s death itself, Christopher no longer feels safe in the presence of someone who cannot tell the truth. It is this concept that contradicts the theme of logic v emotion, because the truth is both logical and emotional. Abby, impuissant, takes the role of Siobhan to the background. Lighting helps distance her in unison with a three dimensional depiction of the rule of thirds. Christopher is the only character making direct eye contact with someone; contrasting…

for fears of burns, and tripping on uneven surfaces; it has been known to cause a large number of serious injuries to players. Turf cannot even be played on in high temperatures for how hot it becomes. The women’s team has tried to stop this. Player Abby Wambach led a group of women to file a discrimination lawsuit against FIFA, their main argument being that the men have never had to play a Cup on artificial turf. Unfortunately, it was not successful. This is an example of how the women are…

science, and the subsequent 15 years of Watson’s career included some notable scientific contributions. This study shows that though these outcomes may not have provided many measurable positive results, they set into motion industry-wide change that continued to develop until the present. The study also argues that though behavioristic principles may not have found solid footing in a mass media environment, the current networked communication state provides much more fertile ground for…

Some critics may argue that at the beginning of the play when Mary urges the girls to confess, because they would “only be whipped for dancin’, and the other things,” that she was doing this out of fear and thus could not be considered a courageous act if done out of…

Chopin, “The Crucible” by Arthur Miller, and “A Streetcar Named Desire” by Tennessee Williams. There are varying types of love and actions caused by love or lack thereof in these stories and plays, although each has its own significance. Although many may argue, the theme of love is still vastly universal and tends to causes emotional response more than other…

Critical Analysis of “The Masque of the Red Death” The short story “The Masque of the Red Death” was written by Edgar Allan Poe in 1842. Poe wrote this story mainly to entertain and to make money. The story could relate to the life of Poe because the “Red Death” is a disease that is wiping out millions of people and during this time most of Poe’s loved ones where dying of Tuberculosis so he could have based the idea from there. “The Masque of the Red Death” a short story by Edgar Allan Poe…

Imagine, being accused of witchcraft in the puritan town of Salem, Massachusetts in the 1690’s. Absurd, right? In Arthur Miller’s hysteria, The Crucible, the phenomenon of colonial witchcraft is explored and analyzed. Throughout the book, author intent drives the delivery of a deep overall message that displays arguably one the most bizarre times in American history . In the drama, The Crucible, Arthur Miller used author intent to create an allegory that enforces the overall intent of the drama…

“Crimes against humanity” In Abby Mann’s play, Judgment at Nuremberg readers ask themselves if Janning really should be charged with crimes against humanity. Was he in fact the most cruel and devastating murderer and torturer, this world has ever seen? Or was he just doing his job for the love of his country? Jannings may have done what he thought was for the love of his country, but he most certainly committed crimes against humanity. Tragedies like the one that happened in Germany has…

wants to be saved by God, and she confesses what Tituba makes her do. Abigail Williams is a strong, leader in “The Crucible”. She is an important character in the play for many reasons, but the greatest is because without her, the Salem Witch Trials may not have happened. As the antagonist of the play, she is a very deceitful, persuasive girl. Miller makes her have many different personalities in the play. Brave, soiled, scared, and in the end, a coward. Abigail Williams is overall not a good…
