<p>I have an essay related to the Crucible for AP english and composition. The essay prompt is basically: Why did Arthur Miller choose to write the Crucible in the form of a play instead of another rhetorical piece such as a novel or an essay.</p>
<p>I am really having trouble starting on this essay. I would really appreciate some advice on how to start.</p>
<p>why don’t you start with a comparison on plays vs novels? Touch on the purpose of plays as opposed to the purpose of novels. That should give you a good basis to argue why Miller chose use the form of a play. Don’t forget to touch on the purpose of the Crucible, itself. That’s very important for the essay.</p>
