The Characters of the Crucible

I believe that each one of the characters in the crucible played a huge role throughout the play. If one character was left out of the script, the entire play would be different. It took the jealousy or wrath from one character towards another to form into the Salem Witch Trials. The ppsychological mix of character's is what made the play so interesting. The way they interacted with one another is not something we see on a day to day bases. These people did not treat each other like human beings, rather they acted as if they were all surrounded by a land of savages. Each one of them was on their own level of insecurity and could not wait to tear down someone in order to get the self-reassurance they so much desire. self-reassurance they so much desire. Due to the level of insecurity each character is faced with it is only a matter of time before they are ready to ruin their next victim.  Many would say that there are only three villains in this play, but to me i veiw everyone person a villain in their own way.  They all have something against another person that drives them to the point of insanity, and breaks them into nothing.
