F. Manipulative
ExplanatiFon:
Abigail Williams is a manipulative character in Arthur Miller’s play “The Crucible.” Miller illustrates this through the stage directions in Act One. It states, “…an endless capacity for dissembling.” (Miller 1130). This trait is how Abigail avoids conflict throughout the entire play. Additionally in Act Two, she increases her exploitation to a prodigious scale. During this act, Abigail pulls a needle from her stomach claiming that it was Elizabeth Proctor’s spirit trying to kill her; therefore, causing Elizabeth to be arrested for witch craft at the end of the act (Miller 1176-1177). This example is the first time that the audience learns that the increase of Abigail’s power has a direct correlation to the rising action in the play. Abigail uses power and manipulation throughout the play to get what she wants and make people fear her.
Even though option D is also related to Modernism and could be related to the excerpt, option C seems to be the correct one: It conveys the idea of isolation from modern life.
Modernist were called "the lost generation" because of their search for meaning among the fragments of modern life. In the excerpt, the words "lonely men" seem to address the theme of isolation and alienation in society. While everyone seems to have a role to perform in modern life, that does not mean they have found their true identity. Some sort of value seems to have been lost and, with it, men lost themselves. Modernism is characterized by the search of such value.
