This is not necessary for a belonging essay, and doing it too much can make you look like a try-hard or, worse -- someone who doesn't have any ideas. If your teachers approve, quote critics with caution in belonging, but quoting is more desirable for your Critical or Close study modules. However, while you don't have to QUOTE critics or reviewers, it can be very useful to know their ideas on your text. They may give you a fresh way of looking at the text and are valuable resources. We have waited until Week 5, so hopefully, you now have a bit of familiarity with the basic plot of your belonging text before piling on extra resources. Set out here are various resources to supplement your research and studies of your text. In a sense, The Crucible has the structure of a classical tragedy, with John Proctor as the play's tragic hero. Honest, upright, and blunt-spoken, Proctor is a good man but one with a secret, fatal flaw. His lust for Abigail Williams leads to their affair (which occurs before the play begins), and creates Abigail's jealousy of his wife, Elizabeth, which sets the entire witch hysteria in motion. Once the trials begin, Proctor realizes he can stop Abigail's rampage through Salem but only if he confesses to his adultery. Such an admission would ruin his good name, and Proctor is, above all, a proud man who places great emphasis on his reputation. He eventually makes an attempt, through Mary Warren's testimony, to name Abigail as fraud without revealing the crucial information. When this attempt fails, he finally bursts out with a confession, calling Abigail a "whore" and proclaiming his guilt publicly. Only then does he realize that it is too late, that matters have gone too far, and that not even the truth can break the powerful frenzy he has allowed Abigail to whip up. Proctor's confession succeeds only in leading to his arrest and conviction as a witch. Though he lambastes the court and its proceedings, he knows his terrible role in allowing this fervour to grow unchecked. Proctor redeems himself and provides a final denunciation of the witch trials in his final act. Offered the opportunity to make a public confession of his guilt and life, he almost succumbs up, even signing a written confession. His immense pride and fear of public opinion compelled him to withhold his adultery from the court. Still, by the end of the play, he is more concerned with his personal integrity than his public reputation. He still wants to save his name for personal and religious, rather than public, reasons. Proctor's refusal to provide a false confession is a true religious and personal stand. Such a confession would dishonour his fellow prisoners, brave enough to die as a testimony to the truth. Perhaps more relevantly, a false admission would also dishonour him, staining his public reputation and his soul. By refusing to give up his personal integrity, Proctor implicitly proclaims his conviction that such integrity will bring him to heaven. He goes to the gallows, redeemed for his earlier sins. As Elizabeth says to end the play, responding to Hale's plea that she convinces Proctor to publicly confess: "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!"
