have you actually attempted to look for it?lovedilara said:My class is studying the Crucible at the moment and we are suppsoe to find texts that relate so we can compare OR contrast...
the story is based on the salem tragedy (the witchcraft trials of 1962)...
anyways it touches on heaps of themes in belonging but the one i was thinking of concentrating on is community vs individual:
"But you must understand, sir, that a person is either with the court or he must be counted against it, there be no road inbetween"
Salem is a tight knit community where there in no privacy. Individual activities are focused upon and if they were undesireable (not going to church, dealing with witchcraft) they would be cast out to try and keep the community together. People were put under great pressure to confess(if they didn't they were hung), but to confess they had to give the name of another "wrong doer", so eventually it spirals out of control and people start using the confessions as a way to get revenge or aquire land...
so does anyone know any texts that would follow the lines of this concept.. or any other themes of belong (be it social, political, religious, moral, physical, sexual or any others)
any help would be appreciated
thanks people.. peace
