''[[The Crucible]]'' is a play by Arthur Miller, published in 1953 and adapted by Miller [[The Crucible (1996 film)|for the screen in 1996]].
The play tells the story of the Salem Witch Trials, which took place in Massachusetts in 1692-93 - though, of course, Miller invents his own characters for dramatic purposes and because not much is known of the actual personalities involved.
Line 8:
''The Crucible'' was likely written partly in response to the activities of Senator Joseph McCarthy, who became notorious for his excessive zeal in rooting out Communist sympathizers.
