Crucible a container which can withstand high heat, especially one in which metal is melted, allowing for impurities in the metal to be identified and removed a severe test or challenge—a test that puts great stress upon people, revealing their weaknesses and strengths a place or situation that forces people to change or make difficult decisions

Allusion An indirect reference to a person, place, event, or literary work with which the author believes the reader will be familiar Example: “Pontius Pilate! God will not let you wash your hands of this!” *Pontius Pilate: the Roman governor who presided over the trial and sentencing of Christ.

Drama is literature in play form. Stage Directions - used by the author to describe settings and characters; provides historical background in the form of expository mini-essays
