When one thinks of an asylum their minds go directly to insane, illness, and crazy; or at least that was what people of the 1950s transitioning into the 1960s. Instead, they contributed to the beat down of the mentally ill; abuse of the people who tried to get help when they thought they were sick. In Ken Kesey’s, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, the mistreatment of patients in the asylum wing in a hospital is exhibited showing the cruelty of the workers or the stereotypical thought of someone who

Sunday school my 4th grade year was when we had to memorize all of the 10 commandments and recite them for our teacher. We had been learning about the 10 commandments for as long as I could remember in sunday school but this was the first time we had to have all 10 memorized. In the crucible there are multiple commandments that are found in the play that are broken as well as some that are well used. Three of the commandments that are found broken are; 7-Thou shall not commit adultery, 9-Thou shall

In society most people have to come to terms with maturity and leave behind their innocence, but those who fail to do so perish in their identity, and those who succeed are greeted with an evolution of identity. In John Knowles’, “A Separate Peace”, characters Gene, Finny, and Leper struggle to come to terms with an evolution of identity. All of them are portrayed going through trial after trial, attempting to mature as people and ultimately find themselves evolving or perishing. Gene does succeed

basically bashing Goody Proctor. When asked a question about Goody Proctor she responds “a bitter woman, a lying, cold, sniveling woman” (Miller 12). This shows how Abigail already has built up malice towards Goody Proctor. To make things even better, Goody Proctor is later charged with witchcraft. Who charged her of this crime? “Why, Abigail Williams charge her.”(77) After finding out that Elizabeth was accused of

boys fight their own battles". Junior from "The Absolutely True Story of A Part-Time Indian" does conform to some of the rules highlighted by Katz but for the most part he does not. Some examples of the ruled he doesn’t conform to is "don’t be a goody-goody", "never discuss anything of importance with anyone", and "empathy is for nerds". Katz says "never discuss anything of importance with anybody" is an important rule to follow in order to become a man. Junior doesn't follow this rule, Junior often

Between the years 1692 and 1693, more than 200 people were accused of witchcraft and 20 were executed from those false accusations in Salem alone. Although there were no actual witches, this was the result of all the chaos and paranoia. Arthur Miller, the author of The Crucible, wrote about the tragedy of Salem and how deception and extreme hysteria tore the town to pieces. Arthur Miller wrote about how Tituba confessed to have affiliations with the devil and from her confession, many others felt

have been a problem. To sum up, the rumors in “The Crucible” that Tituba, Goody Putnam, and Abigail start causing chaos in the

The Crucible Throughout the Salem Witchcraft trials 19 people were accused and executed. The main cause of accusations was, greed, vengeance, and grudges. During the Salem witch trials there were several accusers. I believe that the people that mainly caused the trails were Abigail Williams, Judge Danforth, and Mary Warren. Abigail Williams was a young and rebellious adult, who did reckless things that endangered others. She was the first one to accuse others of witchcraft. In reality she was just

One major example for hatred in the play was when Rebecca Nurse was accused witchery for “murder of Goody Putnam’s babies” (34). This shows it was out of hatred because the person who claimed Rebecca of murder was Mrs. Putnam who had all her babies die except one while Rebecca had all of her children alive. However hatred might have played some of the

over many of the characters influencing their actions of selfishness and greed. The author portrays such desires through the indirect fight between Abigail and Elizabeth for John Proctor’s heart, Mr. Putnam's lust for more land for his wealth, and Goody Putnam's desire for children. The decisions made lead to the deaths of innocent lives without any remorse in the Salem Witch trials. The phenomenon of personal rivalry is a result of jealousy and greed which convey man’s greatest flaws. In the

with her that was working with the devil, and that's when Abigail and the girls opening themselves to god and shouting random villagers names that were “working” with the devil.”Tituba: - there was Goody Good. Betty: I saw George Jacobs with the Devil! I saw Goody Howe with the Devil!. Abigail: I saw Goody Sibber with the Devil.” (Pgs. 484-485 lines: 1344-1389). This was important because it showed the chaos that was to happen because of Abigail and her

her advantage. She would use trickery for her advantage. One character flaw that Abigale had was Vengefulness. We see that Abigale is vengeful because she blamed people for stuff all the time. An example of her being vengeful is when she said “Goody Proctor always kept poppets”.

claims Goody Proctor made a voodoo doll of her and stabbed a needle through her stomach. John, fed up with the court’s folly, expresses his frustration at Hale when the court issues a warrant to search their house for poppets: “ If she is innocent! Why do you never wonder is Parris be innocent, to Abigail? Is the accuser always holy now?…I’ll tell you what’s walking Salem—vengeance is walking Salem” (Miller 77). Danforth and the people of the court automatically point their fingers at Goody Proctor

She put the fear of God into the other girls by threatening to do reddish work if they dare told the truth. Out of pure fear all the girls followed her lead throughout the trials. When the girls accused someone, especially a Goody, of course the court will believe a group of girls with the same story over a single woman. At this time the Devil could bind with anyone with no exceptions. The people of Salem would believe any nonsense story of witchcraft just because there was

revenge on Goody Proctor, Mr. Proctor’s wife. She accuses Goody Proctor of using a poppet (a doll) to do voodoo on her. Abigail was next to Mr. Proctors daughter Mary Warren when she was making the poppet, and she saw Mary stick a needle in the doll for safe keeping. When Proctor turns down Abigail’s advances towards him she uses a needle to stab herself so she can accuse Goody Proctor of sticking the doll so she would get hurt. Abigail Williams and Mr. Proctor had an affair which led to Goody Proctor
