Prove that Reverend Hale is a dynamic character by

comparing his traits in act to his traits in act IV.

Reverend Hale in the play "The Crucible" is an example of a dynamic character.

Explanation:

A dynamic character in a literary piece is the one who goes through changes in his/her inner self such as changes in personality.

Reverend Hale is a vulnerable character of the play who's been manipulated easily by other characters such as Abigail. Hale has come to Salem to investigate the rumors of witchcraft practices in the town.

In beginning Acts, Hale is seen suspecting Rebecca Nurse and Proctor's with witchcraft practices just because he heard rumors about them. But as the play progresses, Hale realizes that they are innocent and he tries to change his mistake by questioning the judgement of the court in Act IV and trying to save the prisoners.
