Why did Arthur Miller choose Salem?
Hey, Im asking Why did Arthur Miller choose Salem village out of all the other instances where citizens hunted down others. He was trying to compare McCarthyism in his book, where abundant innocent people, politicians, and actors were accuse, which created an atmosphere of hostility and uneasiness.
I need 3 chief points for an essay, I already made one up
1) Because he needed an example that would be relevant to American history, which would have been the Salem trials what be in MA.
Anyways, anyone know any other good points?
thanks, its a pretty firm question
Answers:
2) because it is one of the most well known witch hunts within history
3) the panic the witch hunts started was just resembling McCarthyism, people would point fingers at others either to save their own skin or because they needed to do harm to that other person (it happened contained by the witch hunts and in the McCarthyism days) they have a lot of similarities
