Have a little read: ... English Coursework 6 Post-1900 Drama - Social/Historical/Cultural "In what important ways does Miller prepare us for the hysteria and the accusations of the witch-hunts in Act I of The Crucible?" In The Crucible, it was important for Miller to fully show that the witch-hunts in Salem were not some unforeseen, unpredictable chain of events, but the result of many different, precisely added elements. He, therefore, had to display to the inevitability of such events by revealing the true nature of the Salem's society: unstable and extremely volatile. This instability among the people of Salem, stems mainly from their own insecurities. Any person heard to make a statement that is vaguely accusative is counter-attacked with a provocative statement far exceeding that of the first. Such an incident occurs when Proctor identifies Putnam's support for the system of voting by acreage by saying Putnam "cannot command Mr Parris" because the society "votes by name...not by acreage."
