Abstract

The present research is a linguistic stylistic analysis of Arthur Miller’s The Crucible as a social political satire of the American society. The analysis is divided into two major parts: (a) power-relation shifts in characters’ turn-takings within the text world, and (b) analogies between Puritanism and McCarthyism beyond the text world. The first part is mainly linguistic as it examines certain extracts of the play to investigate how strategies of acquiring and/or keeping power help in highlighting power-relation shifts between the characters through the actions, depending on speech act theory, modality and (im)politeness. The second part is centered around highlighting the political and social satirical impulse of Miller’s symbolic dramatization of his contemporary twentieth-century American world of McCarthyism through the seventeenth-century counterpart of Puritanism.
