The Crucible

a Play in Four Acts
Sep 03, 2010alexy93 rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
In the Crucible, Arthur Miller illustrates just how much superstition can reign over reason and common sense. Superstition, and the mass hysteria it created in the town of Salem, was largely caused by the people’s extreme devotion to religion. It is sad & frightening that similar events still occur today. Modern examples are such as the execution of children & juveniles some nations who are caught or suspected of homosexual activity – an act against religious principles.
