What motivates Abigail Williams to lie about her affair with John Proctor? Is a good name more important than the truth? Explain your answer using at least three examples from the text to support your opinion. One piece of your evidence must be John Proctor’s dialogue in Act IV, when he says: “[With a cry of his whole soul.] Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life! Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because I am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave me my name!” (lines ).
What is John Proctor trying to explain with this outburst, and how is it related to your answer to this question?
