Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life!
Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because I am not worth the
dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name?
I have given you my soul; leave me my name! In a small tight-knit
community, gossip and rumour spread like wildfire, inflaming
personal grievances until no-one is safe from accusation and
vengeance. The Crucible is Arthur Miller's classic dramatisation of
the witch-hunt and trials that besieged the Puritan community of
Salem in 1692. Seen as a chilling parallel to the McCarthyism and
repressive culture of fear that gripped America in the 1950s, the
play's timeless relevance and appeal remains as strong as when the
play opened on Broadway in 1953. This new edition includes an
introduction by Soyica Diggs Colbert, that explores the play's
production history as well as the dramatic, thematic, and academic
debates that surround it; a must-have resource for any student
exploring The Crucible.
