STUDENT EDITIONS THE CRUCIBLE - ARTHUR MILLER...

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.
