The point beingness made is that John realizes it is his spot and the consequence of it is he wont let go of her because he knows the truth ab start the arrest. He is reassuring her that nonhing is departure to happen to her. You entrust not go (Act 2 pg 63) invigilate knows that this is e very last(predicate) a mistake scarce knowing it is his. Proctor argues with Mr Cheever that she is innocent and the courts are wrong. Proctor is running out of options he will do anything, even confess about his relationship to get her back. John knows that he is the only one to save his wife and he told her so.For this reason, John is a slice of his word. In the previous(prenominal) Act he verbalize I will take away(predicate) you home (Act 2 pg 63). We have cognize John to be a man of his word when he says to Abigail that he will cut moody his hand and that he will bring Elizabeth back. He stopped what he said before, subsequently he is going to bring Elizabeth back knowing wh at he said to his wife, he knows Elizabeth has trustingness in him Oh, John, bring me soon (Act 2 pg 63). So John has to prove to the judge that his wife is innocent and Abigail accused her honest to get John back so Elizabeth cant have him.Previously the earshot know that John is a man of his word and proof of this is what he is doing. John is so sure that he is going to persuade Danforth that he doesnt need a attorney. I am no lawyer (Act 3 pg 74) Johns confidence is leading him to save his wife then again being a man of his word. He has no care, even if he his going to go prison, he has get word and save his wife. Options are running out for John. He has told the court about his affair with Abigail and said to Danforth that his wife will never lie. That woman will never lie.(Act 3 pg 74) He completely has faith in his wife, but if his wife will deny of the affair then John will be arrested on charges of contempt of court. Firstly John said that he would go to court, exactl y what he said he will do. Proctor said he will admit to adultery saying his wife will never lie he has absolute faith in her. As a forget Elizabeth told her first ever lie because John isnt worth sacrificing. The audience see that Elizabeth does still live him. Also the audience see that John is entirely a man of his word. John is an ordinary man because he has committed crimeHis wife is in prison because of him hence it is his duty to save her. Proctor is neither an ordinary man nor a saint. I cannot mount alike(p) a gibbet like a saint (Act 4 pg 113) A saint is someone who is near to pure and has make something very important in order to change the world. He is angry with the court for saying he is unworthy but knows that they are the evil ones and it doesnt make a difference if he lies. John has done something obedient but it isnt quite there- spiritually developed. John could confess to be a witch.In addition it does not matter to him because he has done the worst sin t here is compared to lying but he has to sign the paper. sign your testimony. (Act 4 pg 113) John does not want to sign the papers because of his name and for his children. John is an ordinary man because he wants his life but knows the cost of what he wants and bread himself because he wants to see his children grow into men. I want to live. (Act 4 pg 110). So basically which man does not want his life? Evidently he is an ordinary man he does not want to die.The audience know John is an ordinary man but a changing ordinary man. John is irritated in the crucible and nearly ready to be purified John knows saving himself will cost some another(prenominal) life, but he can put a full stop to it. John is a pricy man. John believes if he lives and others die for his life that is wrong. I speak my own sins I cannot judge another. I have no tongue for it. (Act 4 pg 113). This means that he can talk his own sin but not others or that he will not accuse others for his own life. Proct or thinks not for himself but his children. He needs to give them a good name.I have confessed myself no good penitence but it be public (Act 4 pg 114) and leave my name (Act 4 pg 115). Proctor says because his scruples says he doesnt want a bad name for his children. He thinks that having his life means his children will have bad names and others will suffer. Also he doesnt want sign his plea especially for the public. Proctor is a fully spiritually developed man. He has refused to sign the paper, meaning his talk apology is not counted. This gave him time to think and when conscious, spoke up. What others say and what I sign to is not the alike (Act 4 pg 115). Proctor knew or I shall I say he realised that his written confession would kill more people and only save himself. However if he dies, theres a full stop to all this nonsense. Proctor died to save others. The audience finally see the changed man for what he really is. Miller influences the audience in the way he refus es to sign and knew exactly what the consequence was going to be. John sees the shred of worth in him, saying that he is white and should be kept away from dogs. The white symbolises the goodness and the dogs are the court.The dogs are the evil people from mythology, if dogs guarding booby hatch and should be away from goodness white. The decision he made was to stop everything bad and he wont go to hell because of what he has done. It makes John a good man, meaning his spiritual development is complete because he is deathly and cant change anymore. John Proctor should have his shred of goodness because he has been pissed long enough in the crucible pot. John Proctor is ready and purified and is a good man. He is finally, as I have mentioned, put a full stop to further deaths, being hung for witchcraft.This circumstance as it was proved in the Milgram experiment- where people would take another persons life without natural endowment a second thought and were told to go even fur ther, until they would die, Proctor was that person and did not listen. Furthermore, John was a final seal and said no more names, deaths or accusations and they were stopped. The government in March 1712 later on a solemn meeting declared a democracy in Salem. All were compensated with their land, bills and a good name for beloved people who died tragically in the witch trials.The ways the audience see The Crucible, is concerned with spiritual development of John. He is linked to all key events in the play, and still Arthur Miller showed how a man changed and died to save a state, in order to save other people and the good name of Proctor. 1 Umer Hussain Essay- The Crucible.
