How was Miller able to convey his point of view about the political atmosphere of his time in The Crucible? by comparing Joseph McCarthy to a witch
by creating mass hysteria to avoid punishment for his controversial views
O by creating a parallel between the accused witches and the accused communists
O by writing about women who were punished for crimes their husbands committed

C. by creating a parallel between the accused witches and the accused communists.

Explanation:

The Crucible is one of the masterpieces written by Arthur Miller. The play not only reflects the incidents of the Salem witch trials but also the trials under John McCarthy. When Miller wrote this play, America was going through its modern-day witch trials, in which American citizens were put on trial for their involvement in Communism.

Therefore, Miller was able to convey his point of view about McCarthyism by creating a parallel between accused witches and accused communists.

Thus, option C is correct.

you didnt put   question but this passage would be a origin story made to explain life and death and who controls each one

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
