摘要
阿瑟·米勒在《萨勒姆的女巫》中,深掘出"逐巫"事件的根源在于人性的沉沦,以此批判麦卡锡主义之下人性的沦丧。同时,米勒着力描述了主人翁普洛克托以良知对抗权威、自我决战群恐、名誉奋战报复的英勇行为,谴责了麦卡锡主义泯灭良心、麻痹思想、扼杀自我、蓄意报复的邪恶反动本质,同时向世人昭显了正义的力量。
In The Crucible, Miller explores the root of Salem Witch Hunt to be the fall of human nature, which is an insinuation of the decline of human nature during the McCarthyism times. By striving to depict the hero Proctor' s bravery in defending his conscience against authority, his identity against mass fear and his name against revenge, Miller denounces McCarthyism' s evil nature of selling conscience, paralyzing thought, stifling self- pursuit and vandalism, and simultaneously shows the power of justice to the world.
