The Crucible


            
             After reading Arthur Miller's play The Crucible it has become evident that the three people most to blame for the witch hysteria and the subsequent death of innocent people are Tituba, Abigail, and Hathorne. Each of these people. In some way, cause harm to blameless people. This essay will explain what these people, knowingly or unknowingly did to contribute to the death of the innocent people hanged as witches in Salem Village in 1692.
             Abigail was most responsible for the Salem Witch hysteria. Reason being is that she was caught dancing in the woods. Meaning that if you were Puritan you were limited to what you could do. As if you were to dance, go to concerts (symphonies), or read a book besides the bible it was a sin. The only things you could really do is go to church and read the bible. That just one of the reasons she is responsible.
             In addition, she accused Elizabeth Proctor for trying to murder her with fudo. Reason is that she lusted for her husband (John Proctor) and she wanted to take her place and she knew the only way she"ll have him is if his wife was dead. Proctor didn't want her, because he would have know that she did it on purpose to get with him or get back at him. Reason being is this she use to be there servant, while his wife was sick he kind of lusted for her too, so they had a little something but nothing to him but something for her. So his wife figured it out told to get out. Then they meet back up he told her he didn't want to have nothing to do with her she got mad, and this is her way of getting back at him by accusing his wife.
             Tituba was also responsible for the tragedy. She was a servant for Reverend Parris, she was from Barbados. She introduced the girls to witchcraft which is how the whole Salem Witch started because of one individual who opened others eyes to things they never experienced before and they liked it because they don't have adventures and experiences as today so they got sucked up in the whole thing.
