Mary Warren

In The Crucible there are three different types of authority figures. There names are John Proctor, Judge Danforth and Reverend Parris. John Proctor is a stern, harsh-tongued man, he has been hiding his affair with Abigail and is paying the price of it. But will work to the death to make sure his good name is not ruined. While Judge Danforth is an honest man and will speak his own mind, he is convinced he is doing right in the court. And last of them is Reverend Parris, he is the new minister of

Mary, Abigail, Elizabeth, and John all have unique relationships to one another in the play The Crucible. The symbols that best represent John Proctor and Elizabeth Proctor are a sun and snowflakes. The symbols that represent Abigail Williams and Mary Warren are a split mask and the character Dobby from the Harry Potter series. These symbols are the best choice to represent these characters. Behind Abigail’s name is a theatre mask that is split into two sides. This is because Abigail is two-faced

Mary Warren had been sewing it in court and Abby was sitting right by her when she was sewing it. Abby must’ve noticed that Mary had left the needle in the stomach of the poppet and used that to get revenge on Elizabeth. That night Abigail

more lies, spreads like fire; A lie means more people dead, including those who were innocent. By this point in the play, many people were being sent to trial and sometimes dying, because of the lies told by the girls. In act 3, Danforth asks Mary Warren, “Then you tell me that you sat in my court, callously lying, when you knew that people would hang by your evidence? Answer me!” (Miller 97). She responds by stating “I did,”

Miller utilises Mary Warren's repeated refrain of "I cannot, I cannot" to reflect how crazy she has become. Despite Abigail's wrongdoings Mary states that she "cannot charge murder on Abigail" which shows how much Abigail has manipulated her. She then states that "they'll turn on [her]" which demonstrates the pressure placed upon Mary to lie to the court. Mary's mind has been twisted into believing that staying loyal to the

children, and a servant named Mary Warren. John and Elizabeth were important to the story mainly because they were well respected people in their community of Salem. In Act II John was a very aggressive

Abigail Williams was ultimately the cause of John Proctor's death. She was a sneaky girl who wanted to get rid of John's wife, Elizabeth. The acts that Abigail committed throughout the play all were leading up to John's death, even though that is not what she intended to happen. Abigail is most responsible for the witchcraft in the drive. She is the person you drives all the other girls to cry witchcraft. She lacks a conscience which makes her an untrustworthy person in the town. She goes through

psychological characteristics, feelings, and behavioral traits of humankind”. Between the Book, Lord of the flies and The Crucible, human nature is strongly portrayed through similar characters such as Simon and Mary Warren, Satan/Devil and the Beast, and Jack and Abigail. Simon and Mary Warren both share their wise and kind traits and being bringers of truth, while Satan/Devil and the Beast share the characteristic of exotic and the unknown, both are also able to bring out each person’s human nature

because he was accused of witchcraft. John Proctor is the most admirable character in the crucible for many different reasons. He stood by his wife even after most of the town wanted her dead and he did everything he could to save her. He made Mary Warren go to court with him and confess what really happened with the doll. “You will tell the court how that poppet come here and who stuck the needle in”(Miller, 88). Mr. Proctor eventually pleaded his case to the court that Abigail is an evil

He uses his authority over Mary Warren to have her confess how the witch trials are a complete scam in front of the court. Proctor also assures the court that the many arrested are innocent. The court’s power continues to overshadows his own. Every word he says is taken as a threat against the court, and Proctor is even accused of working with the devil. However, Proctor begins to get the full attention of the court, but Abigail shows up and claims both Mary Warren and Proctor are wrong. From here
