All of these references are also known as Allusions

Allusion An implied or indirect reference in literature to a familiar person, place, or event Can also refer to another literary work Usually, allusions are used as a way to compare as a metaphor or simile In The Crucible most common allusions are to The Bible

The Gamble of Allusions Will the audience understand the allusion? Are they familiar with what you’re alluding to or referencing? Think about the Historical Context Are the people, events, places, literary works that are popular and well-known today going to be famous in 5, 10, 50 years?

The Gamble of Allusions Universal Significance Cultural Significance

Allusions in The Crucible “For these reasons, among others, they carried about an air of innate resistance, even of persecution. Their fathers had, of course, been persecuted in England. So now they and their church found it necessary to deny any other sect its freedom, lest their New Jerusalem be defiled and corrupted by wrong ways and deceitful ideas.” The Crucible, Act One, pg. 1235

Allusions in The Crucible Where does it come from? The Bible What is Jerusalem? The holy city of heaven What does the allusion mean? They’re trying to create a city as perfect as heaven. In order to do this, they’re unwelcoming to every other sect since they can’t be as perfect. If they were perfect, they’d be part of their town already.
