for your being discharged from Goody
Proctor’s service? I have heard it said,
and I tell you as I heard it, that she
comes so rarely to the church this year
for she will not sit so close to
something soiled. What signified that
remark?
ABIGAIL: She hates me, uncle, she
must, for I would not be her slave. It’s a
bitter woman, a lying, cold, sniveling
woman, and I will not work for such a
woman!
PARRIS: She may be. And yet it has
troubled me that you are now seven
month out of their house, and in all this
time no other family has ever called for
your service.

Mind Expander

Colonial Salem was steeped in a rigid social hierarchy and puritanical expectations. This created a society where a person’s reputation could easily be tarnished by rumors and perceived sins. The pressure to conform meant that individuals like Abigail faced intense scrutiny for their actions, and a mere accusation could result in ostracism, as she experiences when discussing Goody Proctor. Society’s expectations were not just about conduct but also about maintaining a facade of piety, making the stakes incredibly high in this tightly-knit community.
In Colonial Salem, social and familial ties were everything, and individuals were often reliant on their connections for employment. Abigail’s prolonged unemployment suggests a breakdown of those connections, making her desperate to cling to respectability. This reality underscores the theme of manipulation inherent in the play, where a lack of social standing further fuels the conflict and tragedy. The pressures of maintaining upper hand in such a competitive setting often forced individuals into desperate actions, leading to the drama unfolding in “The Crucible.”

Although single-eamer married families still make up a sizable minority of families, the proportion of two-earner couples has increased considerably in recent decades. As more U.S. women have worked outside the home, the division of responsibility for work and family has changed in three ways: (1) U.S. husbands are taking increased responsibility for maintaining the home; (2) U.S. women are taking increased responsibility for breadwinning; (3) U.S. men are showing greater interest in their families and parenting.
