Act III Questions


1.     What is ironic about the petition that Francis Nurse had 91 Salem villagers sign?
 
2.     What does Giles Corey accuse Thomas Putnam of doing?


3.     Which character repeatedly claims that anydefense offered by Proctor is “an attack upon the court”:   

4.     What does Judge Hathorne ask Mary Warren to do in order to prove her innocence? (Hint- she tries, but is unable to do it.)

5.     What does Proctor mean when he says “I have made a bell of my honor!  I have rung the doom of my good name—you will believe me, Mr. Danforth!

6.     What causes Mary to snap at the end of Act III and accuse Proctor of being “The Devil’s Man”?


7.     Rev. Hale denounces the proceedings and quits the court at the end of Act III.  How is this foreshadowed in Act I?


8.    How does Abigail once again control the court at the conclusion of Act III?
