stuff your character

John Proctor is one of the main characters in the play. He is the protagonist and is the symbol of hope for the community and the accused people. John Proctor’s testimony in the court could have helped to save the accused men and women of the community. But, right before he can convince the judges, he himself is accused of witchcraft. Throughout The Crucible, John Proctor expresses his strength and stays confident the same way Arthur Miller did when he was accused of being communist. In my opinion, Miller used Proctor to represent himself through The Crucible.
