Specificatii
Against the backdrop of a Puritan theocracy threatened by change,
in a population terrified not only of eternal damnation but of the
earthly dangers of Indian massacres and recurrent smallpox
epidemics, a small group of girls denounces a black slave and
others as worshipers of Satan. Within two years, twenty men and
women are hanged or pressed to death and over a hundred others
imprisoned and impoverished. In The Salem Witch Trials Reader,
Frances Hill provides and astutely comments upon the actual
documents from the trial--examinations of suspected witches,
eyewitness accounts of Satanic influence, as well as the testimony
of those who retained their reason and defied the madness. Always
drawing on firsthand documents, she illustrates the historical
background to the witchhunt and shows how the trials have been
represented, and sometimes distorted, by historians--and how they
have fired the imaginations of poets, playwrights, and novelists.
For those fascinated by the Salem witch trials, this is compelling
reading and the sourcebook.
