The correct answer is the following: <em>option B. It can be said that Jefferson's purpose in the excerpt is to gain sympathy for the American cause.</em> The excerpt provided in the question belongs to the Declaration of Independence wrote by the Founding Fathers of the United States. In the excerpt, Thomas Jefferson, one of the Founding Fathers, is trying to gain sympathy for the American cause by not only focusing the blame on the British monarchy but also by denouncing the British people in general. In the excerpt, Jefferson charges against the citizens of the United Kingdom by highlighting that they all have chosen to look to the other side when it came to the American cause, "They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity".

In at least 150 words, discuss Miller’s literary purpose for writing The Crucible. Use details from the play to support your ans
exis [7]

he most obvious reason Arthur Miller wrote The Crucible (or anything else, really) is because he had a story to tell. Without that, he would not have been inspired to write. It is true, however, that what inspired him to write this particular story is quite personal.

As a Jewish man, Miller was a political advocate against the inequalities of race in America, and he was vocal in his support of labor and the unions. Because he was such an outspoken critic in these two areas, he was a prime target for Senator Joseph McCarthy and others who were on a mission to rid the country of Communism.

Miller was called before the House Committee on Un-American Activities because of his connections to these issues but refused to condemn any of his friends. This experience, a rather blind and sweeping condemnation of anything even remotely connected to Communism without sufficient (or any) evidence, is what prompted him to write about the Salem Witch trials. 

In a later interview, Miller said the following:

It would probably never have occurred to me to write a play about the Salem witch trials of 1692 had I not seen some astonishing correspondences with that calamity in the America of the late 40s and early 50s. My basic need was to respond to a phenomenon which, with only small exaggeration, one could say paralysed a whole generation and in a short time dried up the habits of trust and toleration in public discourse.

However, the more he began to study the tragic events in Salem, the more he understood that McCarthy's hunt for Communists was nothing compared to the fanaticism which reigned in Salem in the 1690s.
