Fear of the Devil-and the unknown-plays a large role in Act 1. To us, these characters may appear
irrational, but they are gripped by fear and their faith. Think about a time-in your life, in history, or in
current events-when fear has caused others to act irrationally. Describe this time in detail, and
connect it to what you've read and learned about the Salem Witch Trials and McCarthyism. Respond in
a minimum of 5 complex sentences.
