i need help figuring something out.

okay so we have to answer these questions for the crucible, and i don't even undersatnd the questions soi can't answer it. so if you could help me understand the question that would be awsome. okay the question:
'What is the "paradox" that Miller explores near the end of the Overture? (consider Miller's idea that all societies must be grounded on the idea of "exclusion and prohibition" '

'Parody of an angel, miles above the sea. I hear the voice of reason,screaming after me:
"You've flown far too high child now you're too close to the sun,Soon your makeshift wings will come undone!"
But how will I know limits from lies if I never try?'

i'm sorry but i have never watched that show. if you need help with something you should start your own thread, cause no one will know that your here and they won't be able to help you. :D

in terms of exclusion and prohibition you could tackle the fact that the salem community was very parochial and they were true fanatical christian believers and how ironic it is that a foreign religios cult--Tituba's--swiftly attracted the religious girls of Salem into pagan rituals that were berrated in their community--this could also be part of the paradoxical meaning of the story itself. Thus, we can appreciate both the exclusion of foreign religions (also support it with an allusion to the Maryland community) and the prohibition of any rituals born from such creed.

This is just a quick comment. You might try to reread the opening (if you haven't done it already).
