Hey there,
I came up with this plan so far
Compare the way the two texts explore the cruelty and brutality that ordinary people are capable of
1) Violence- Physically and mentally (focus of YOW in this para)
-lynching
-Joss bont using his physical strength to take advantage during the sombre time
-you can use the quote 'safe distance from one another' to manouver into the emotional/mental violence displayed in TC
-TC --> accusations b/w characters and Mary Warren suffering mentally (confessing/shaking uncontrollably from stress, etc)
2)Morals (focus of TC in this para)
-Judges expelling any moral values by assiging so many innocent individuals to be hanged (with insufficient proof)
-'good' people confessing just for the sake of saving themselves
-you might be able to use John Proctor as a stepping stone here and say he didnt compromise his values
-YOW --> Mompellion and Eleanor abstaining from sexual intimacy (focus more on Eleanor)
3) How each town responded to the cruel actions of the ordinary people
-YOW --> brought them closer together
-you can use how they were all huddled together in the church as evidence
-TC --> further divided them
-used theology to their advantage (literally just killed anyone who didnt agree with them lol)
My third para is a bit rusty I think, still hope it helps!
