The Crucible

Kyle Aulman

Am Lit

In my class for American literature we have been reading a story called the crucible. In this story it deals with a lot of universal conflicts. One of these conflicts is Loyalty. John proctor is not very loyal to his wife Mary. He had an affair with a girl named Abigail(his servant girl). This is a big problem in real life. Lovers go behind each others backs and cheat. They do not stay loyal to each other and it is not right to betray your lover. The proctor eventually gets what he deserves after he confesses his sins in court. Also Abigail betrayed the girls because she was jealous that she couldn’t have John to herself. In life some people betray friends because they have something that they want. That is one of the universal topics that a saw while reading this book.

Equiano Olaudah

I read a story called “the interesting narrative of the life of Olaudah Equiano”. Equiano was born in 1745 in Eboe witch is now Nigeria. At age eleven he was kidnapped and sold to slave traders. He spend brief time in Virginia but was mostly serving captains of slave ships. One of his slave owners gave him the name Gustavas Vassa witch he used most of his life. He served under a lot of people and eventually he bought his freedom in 1766. He settled in England in 1767 and attended school and worked as and assistant to Dr. Charles Irving. In 1773 he traveled with Irving from Europe to Asia. He published his autobiography in 1789. He married Susanna Cullen in 1792 and had 2 daughters. He died in London in 1797.

My opinion on slavery is that it’s really messed up. To haft to work in harsh conditions all day and get treated badly would suck.
