Reverend Parris, the minister of Salem in 'The Crucible', is a central figure in the witchcraft trials. His fear of losing his reputation drives a lot of the play's action, and his position influences public opinion significantly. His actions set several events into motion that affect the future trajectory of the story.

In Arthur Miller's The Crucible, Reverend Parris plays a significant role in the community as the minister of Salem. As a spiritual and social leader, Parris is at the center of the witchcraft trials and his fear of losing personal reputation drives much of the action in the play. His position grants him a significant amount of sway over public opinion, and his selfishness exacerbates the witch hunt that shakes the community.

For instance, Parris plays a notable role in the accusation and arrest of several characters such as John Proctor, an event that sets in motion many subsequent actions in the plot. His insistence on seeing witchcraft in every corner of Salem reflects his paranoia and leads to extensive hysteria and conflict in the town. Parris's fear of losing his position also makes him unwilling to challenge the court's authority, contributing to the chaos and unfairness of the trials.

Which is a mark of Chaucer's originality?

based on the epics and legends you have studied in this unit and other epics you have read in previous courses why do you think epic narratives were important to ancient cultures?

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice --
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do --
determined to save
the only life you could save.

Ain't I A Woman?
Sojourner Truth (1797-1883)

1 Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter. I think that 'twixt the negroes of the South and the women at the North, all talking about rights, the white men will be in a fix pretty soon. But what's all this here talking about?

2 That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?

3 Then they talk about this thing in the head; what's this they call it? [member of audience whispers, "intellect"] That's it, honey. What's that got to do with women's rights or negroes' rights? If my cup won't hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn't you be mean not to let me have my little half measure full?

4 Then that little man in black there, he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause Christ wasn't a woman! Where did your Christ come from? Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him.

5 If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back , and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men better let them.

6 Obliged to you for hearing me, and now old Sojourner ain't got nothing more to say.
