The Crucible: Elizabeth Proctor
Elitzabeth is one of the main characters in the book “the
crucible”, by Arthur Miller 1953, and the wife of protagonist John Proctor.
When she first appears in the book she seem to have a cold, not really lovely
character, but not in the way the she is really mean, her behavior is totally understandable,
when you get to notice that her husband had an affair with their ex- maid
Abigal Williams, what started the hole tragedy. During the hole drama she
changes just a little bit (in my opinion the change is more on the readers side
as the story goes along and you get to know her better), it turns out that her
negative qualities are also her good ones, she is a standfast, honest woman
which holds on really strong to her virtues.
