Abstract
The paper describes the setting of this play, being based on the events surrounding the 1692 witch trails that took place in Salem, Massachusetts. The paper looks closely at the character of John Proctor who commits adultery but is prepared to save his wife even at the expense of his secret being revealed. The paper portrays John's continuous struggle against his inner contradictions and how he chooses death rather than dishonor.
From the Paper
"The plot evolves around one character, John Proctor--"a farmer in his middle thirties"--who commits the sin of cheating on his wife once with Abigail, a girl of seventeen, "strikingly beautiful, an orphan, with an endless capacity for dissembling." (Arthur Miller, The Crucible, 8) Jealous and resentful of being rejected, Abigail accuses Proctor's wife of witchcraft, of murderous thoughts, manipulating others to take sides with her and spreading witchcraft panic through the village. Proctor, who has more or less indirectly caused his wife to be accused, has now a moral obligation to save her. In trying to do so, though, he himself is charged with witchcraft."

Abstract
This paper provides an analysis of John Proctor from Miller's "The Crucible. The writer explains that Proctor is a tragic hero, while pointing out character flaws as well as positive traits as relating to the play's theme.
From the Paper
"In Miller's play The Crucible, John Proctor endures relentless conflict, equally internally, as well as against the court of Salem, that ultimately transforms his character from adamantly prideful to admirably courageous. As the play's tragic hero, Proctor lives a successful, yet honest life and is well respected in Salem. Miller describes him as "powerful of body, and not easily led," further supporting the prosperous lifestyle consistently associated with a tragic hero. Proctor's fault, however, lies in the extremity of his character, a trait that when in combination with his impulsive personality, is exclusively responsible for his demise."

Abstract
This paper explains that, although Proctor and Gamble (P&G) has had a presence in India for nearly 15 years, it has not yet marketed its globally very successful Bounty paper towel product in this country. The author points out that, because currently in India paper towels have a very limited presence and because Indian families are often very traditional in their ways of living and culture, Bounty would have to become one of their social preferences for cleaning spillage and messes. The paper recommends that P&G 'piggyback' Bounty paper towels on existing distribution channels used for P&G's other household items and that the marketing team for this product should be made up of existing P&G India employees.

From the Paper
"P&G was founded in 1837 when a Cincinnati father suggested that the two men married to his daughters, one a candle maker, the other a soap maker, should form a company together. The brother-in-laws, William Proctor and James Gamble, both Irish immigrants had settled in Cincinnati and met through the sisters they married. Each invested about $3500 a piece to form the start-up of a company that specialized in making soap and candles. In 1850, their trademark moon and stars logo began to appear on all their products. That trademark would become a source of P&G?s greatest marketing setback, when it was falsely linked to Satanism a hundred years later."

John Proctor, 2002.

Abstract
This paper describes how the character, John Proctor, in "The Crucible", ultimately valued what was right over what felt better and gave up his life because of this. The paper uses examples from the story to support this analysis.
From the Paper
"Set during the Salem Witch Trials of 1692, "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller is a tale about archaic events that still hold significance today. Its tragic hero, John Proctor, is the individual that exemplifies the theme of the story. A local farmer, Proctor's wife is accused of being a witch by a 17-year-old girl, Abigail Williams. However, this was no accident. Proctor and Williams were in involved in an affair while John's wife Elizabeth was sick. But unlike her older lover, Abigail felt that their relationship could still exist. But with the strict religious values of their time, this was a pipe dream. At any rate, while attempting to defend his wife from imprisonment and execution, Proctor is accused of being a witch, and is put behind bars. While there, he is slated for execution, until a startling development occurs. If he signs a written public confession of witchery, he would be free to live his life again. Coupled with the fact that his pregnant wife would not be executed due to her baby, the Proctors would be a family again. But John cannot allow this. By confessing, John feels that he has already lost his soul, thus he wants his integrity to remain intact. When arguing his point to Judge Danforth, he proclaims, "How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave me my name" (The Crucible 143). This proves that John Proctor was a man of strong ethics that valued what was right over what felt better."

Tragic Heroes, 2007.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper explains that Arthur Miller wrote "The Crucible" to establish a parallel between the unjust Salem witch trials and the Second Red Scare when Communists were believed to have quietly infiltrated American life and security. The paper discusses how Miller, like his character John Proctor, kept his silence and refused to testify to the Committee in protecting his business and personal friends and was thus blacklisted by the American government. The paper also examines "The Death of a Salesman" where Miller centers on the attainment of the American dream in the main characters, Willy Loman and his son, Biff. The paper discusses how Willy, unlike John Proctor, does not attain the status of a tragic hero because he does not come to a full self-realization.
From the Paper
"John Proctor, as Arthur Miller's tragic hero in "The Crucible," is essentially an honest and upright and honest man with just one weakness, a secret affair with Abigail Williams, which he at first hides in order to protect his public reputation as an honorable man and husband to Elizabeth (Miller 1953, Wikipedia 2006). The witchcraft hysteria occurs at this time when the spurned Abigail expresses her jealousy and vengeance by implicating Elizabeth as a witch to the court. John presents Mary Warren to the judge as a witness in an attempt at saving his wife but without exposing his adultery, but the attempt fails and John finds himself trapped in the turmoil when Mary accuses him of being a wizard himself."

Arthur Miller's "The Crucible", 2006.
This paper compares the witch hunts in Arthur Miller's "The Crucible" to the McCarthy hearings of the 1950s.

Abstract
This paper explains that the parallels, in the plot of Arthur Miller's "The Crucible" and the "Red Scare" of the 1950s, bring to light the unconstitutional lawlessness committed by Senator Joseph McCarthy and his House Un-American Activities Commission (HUAC), a committee designed to identify and persecute Americans who were members of the Communist party. The author points out that, from the play, John Proctor's character and principles and how he persists in carrying them out directly pertain to Arthur Miller's role in the HUAC hearings. This paper states that Arthur Miller wrote "The Crucible" to keep the detrimental effects of mass hysteria in the conscious minds of Americans and people everywhere because the moment that these mistakes are forgotten they are doomed to be repeated. This paper includes a playwright chronology.
From the Paper
"Understanding why Miller writes about the mass hysteria and paranoia of the Salem witch-hunts can partly come from reflecting on his life during the Red Scare. Although Miller himself was not a communist when he was subpoenaed in 1956 by HUAC, he refused to name names when the HUAC asked him about people who attended the same meetings as he once did. "I declined to make any such statement, which I found demeaning; what right had any organisation [sic] to demand anyone's pledge of loyalty?" The HUAC asked Miller very specific questions about the others who participated in what McCarthy and his followers perceived as disloyal to America."

From the Paper
"any companies consider what they might do if faced with an ethical dilemma and how they might recover from some disaster, but only a few companies ever have to face doing so in the way Johnson & Johnson did with the Tylenol crisis in 1982. Johnson & Johnson weathered that crisis in a way now emulated by other companies. The issue of ethics had been important to the company before this, and it had originally marketed Tylenol in what it called an "ethical marketing program" directly to doctors before deciding that the product could also reasonably be sold over the counter to the consumer, beginning in 1975. Johnson & Johnson remains a major company not just in the United States but worldwide. Johnson & Johnson today is number 51 on the list of the Fortune 500 companies, with annual sales in 1999..."
