5. How does the theme of William Ernest Henley's poem “Invictus" relate to Arthur Miller's
play The Crucible? Identify at least two ways/examples.

The common theme of poem 'Invictus' and play 'The Crucible'  is fate and resilience.

Explanation:

"Invictus" is a poem written by William Ernest Henley. The poem is about the suffering or pains that the poet went through when he suffered from a bout with tuberculosis. The poem speaks about the times when a person goes through a dark and trying time and the ability of humans to overcome it. The main message of the poem or the theme is that human can control their fate through resilience.

This theme is evident in the last lines of the poem when the poet says that he is the master of his fate and his soul.

"I am the master of my fate,

I am the captain of my soul."

"My head is bloody, but unbowed."

"The Crucible" is a play written by Arthur Miller based on the true incidents of the Salem witch trials. The theme of fate and resilience can also be seen this play in the last scene of the play, when Proctor decided to control his fate. In the last scene of the play, Proctor refuses to sign his name on the paper and be hung on the wall of the church. He decided not to sign, because he knew he was innocent, not in the sight of men but in God. He knew that there is a greater Judgment than this is coming, which will prove his innocence. Thus he takes control of his fate by choosing to be hunged than be shamed and lose his name.  

"PROCTOR: Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life. 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!"

"PROCTOR: (Crossing slowly to Elizabeth, takes her hand for a moment.) Pray God it  speak some goodness for me."

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
