Arthur Miller

What character is Arthur Miller most like in the Crucible?

I am doing a paper in English, its a comparison essay on arthur miller (guy who wrote “The Crucible”) and someone from “The Crucible”. Can somebody help me by picking a character and listing a few ways how they are related? Thanks guys (:

Hello, Arthur Miller’s play The Crucible develops characters that portray problems with their identities. This inner struggle is clearly seen in the main character John Proctor. He is the man Miller has chosen to struggle with “the dilemma of men, fallible, subject to pride, but forced to choose between the “negative good” of truth and morality, and the “positive good” of human life.” (Internet, Arthur Miller Home Page) In order for this character to develop, Miller had to create Proctors wife, Elizabeth. She would be the catalyst in making John Proctor deal with his inherent identity dilemma. With out her, Proctor would not be a central character, and would have never needed to deal with the inner morality of himself. Elizabeth Proctor makes her husband John the main character in The Crucible. The full essay is here:
