The Crucible is a powerful indictment of McCarthyism and the 'frontier mentality' of Cold War America, published in Penguin Modern Classics.

Arthur Miller's classic parable of mass hysteria draws a chilling parallel between the Salem witch-hunt of 1692 - 'one of the strangest and most awful chapters in human history' - and the American anti-communist purges led by Senator McCarthy in the 1950s. The story of how the small community of Salem is stirred into madness by superstition, paranoia and malice, culminating in a violent climax, is a savage attack on the evils of mindless persecution and the terrifying power of false accusations.

If you enjoyed The Crucible, you might like Miller's Death of a Salesman, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

'One of a handful of great plays that will both survive the twentieth century and bear witness to it'

John Peter, Sunday Times

A very intellectual book written in the Red Scare,an era featured by the public-perceived fear against the Russian Communist Uprising.While in fact telling the story of 1692 Salem Witch Hunt,Arthur Miller is actually projecting the similar unfairness and st...

阿瑟·米勒 根据真实的萨勒姆女巫案改编而成,阿瑟米勒笔下的萨勒姆小镇,人人为了自保而虚构罪名,诬陷旁人,显然也是对当时美国盛行的麦卡 锡主义的暗讽。由几个女孩子引起的女巫案为什么最后演化为全镇的悲剧,涉及越来越多的无辜者,人性的意义和价值在当时的萨勒姆...

美国高二英语教材 电影有混乱的中字 但是没有中译本 难道是讽刺麦卡锡主义?不对啊 朋友的敌人是我们的敌人 所以应该很开心才对 还是一不小心它也隐射我们的历史? 很期待有人去译 不嫌弃也可以合作

刚开始看的时候感觉很匪夷所思,看不太进去... 因为学业要求一定要看 坚持读完 看到第三幕和第四幕的时候觉得心里还是挺悸动的 关于宗教类的书籍作为not religions,但还是可以引发思考人性的 是悲剧,但是很值得看的一本.

英语课上完完整整演完的(?亲身演绎便可摧毁一切想象哈哈哈哈哈)。简短有力的剧本,叙事完整,人间的欲望、挣扎、善恶纷呈其中。

已购实体#读英文原著总会发现读中文时忽略掉的一些地方;企鹅这本后面还有各个版本喜剧表演的幕后照片,可以!!封面水中的白衣女子让我想到逃狱三兄弟里的森林奇遇,也是关于宗教的

四月的最后一本书,也是平成的最后一本书。从过年拖到现在总算读完了,阅读的过程简单来说就是百爪挠心,一直有什么东西在抓着你不肯松开。读到最后的echoes down the corridor才算是真正放下了。Salem的故事听得太多了—从朱老师讲麦卡锡主义,到Fantastic Beasts里的witch-hunting,再到A Discovery of Witches里的Bishop—,Arthur Miller的改写和演绎固然无法让我看到这一历史事件的全貌。However, this great play not only survives the twentieth century but also bears witness to the next one.
