When writing this in the exam for example, do you think it is necessary to add the inverted commas when quoting passages from The Crucible? My references to the set text are usually weaved in with my evidences/ideas which may explicitly epitomize the events from The Crucible for example. Your direct quoting - does it work? What have markers said about it? I'm wondering if I can introduce the set text in a more effective manner.

if your quoting, you have to add quote marks, regardless of how you bring it in - explicitly (Arthur miller's john proctor said...) or weaved in
it is also better, because if the examiner doesnt realise the quote is from the text, you can give an indication of that, and they will see how you are transferring ideas from the text

Well in your case, why would you be quoting to The Crucible like that, given your form,title and publisher?

could you provide an example of what you mean by 'like that'
i agree this was rather persuasive, would not work with the publisher, time,
so hopefully the new one "MITE" allows for the persuasiveness.

It seems rather awkward that you introduce quotes from The Crucible which doesn't necessarily pertain to the idea of fear - 'What are we so afraid of?'. No offense, but it just seems you are trying to establish a link between The Crucible and your article in a shallow manner. That is why I don't think it is necessary to quote passages like that, even if you are trying to make a link with the text. It seems like as if you already have sufficient links to the text such as the focus on McCarthyism as a whole - so it just occured to me that you could 'omit' the quotes because your persona and background information give no indication or any reference to The Crucible. Also, what is the prompt?

[nacho]

added prompt now;
it is: "Conflict is fear of difference"
could you highlight the areas which seem to not link?
Not all my quotes are from the crucible, some are from speeches, macbeth and to kill a mockingbird and some random people, is it one of those?

I did something similar to you and a vcaa examiner made it clear that I had to explicitly introduce who or where I was quoting from. Also demonstrate the significance of the quote. For example, the mention of Aung San and her quote was done quite well.

In the past, we have seen fear "pull Heaven down’’ and bring forth destruction amongst people.

Would Times Magazine really say that? They are an unbiased publisher with no religious connections.

Times Magazine portrayed the Dalai Lama as the supreme religious leader of wholesome goodness and compassion. You don't believe that do you?

I certainly don't.
obviously the great chinese government shouldn't ever be challenged or criticised.
