The Hysteria of Salem Witchcraft

Salem's magical hysteria has a long history of magic, but mainly concentrated in the 16th and 17th centuries. Only British North American colonies have over 100 magical trials, 40% of the defendants were executed. Well, the two professors of Carol F. Carlsen's history and Kai T. Ericsson's sociology studied Salem Witch Hysteria to ascertain whether it was caused by the fear of women, and have two very different interpretations I did it. .

Several characters play an important role in the spread of hysteria and other characters. These characters may have completed important information about other Salem magic. Some may argue that John Proctor hesitated to expose the real nature of Abigail Williams led to the spread of hysteria and the arrest of many innocent citizens. In the second act, John's wife immediately asked him to go to Salem and expose Abigail. However, Proctor hesitated because he did not want to break his reputation, and it is hard to believe that the citizen truly believes in young girls in the courtroom.

In 1692 and 1693, the fear of magic spread to Salem, Massachusetts, just like the plague. Magic strongly opposed Puritan's belief, and Puritan executed the accused witch. Through the rest of Salem, 185 people were magically blamed. Rumors about witchcraft endanger the lives of many people. Magic is defined as concluding a contract with the devil in exchange for some power to do evil. - In Salem in the 17th century, Massachusetts is a port town where the settlers of Puritan who came from the UK mainly live in the 17th century live. For settlers, belief in magic passes away, and if arrested it will be sentenced to death. Salem Witch Trial was a series of lawsuits surrounding magic in 1692, over 100 people were sued, 19 people were hanged and 1 person was murdered.

Behind the faith of Puritan there is the Silhamic magic hysteria of 1691. There, 20 people from the village of Salem (now Danfoss, Massachusetts) were executed for witchcraft on the neighborhood. To support faith is a belief in ghost evidence - I believe people can allow Satan to inherit their portraits and thus allow others to commit a crime. In fact, it depends on whether Satan has the right to pretend to be without their permission. Finally, the local authorities decided that Satan had such power and stopped persecution of "witches". As David Levine suggested, Hawthorne uses the most directly ghost evidence at "Young Goodman Brown" as Brown encounters the ghosts of almost everyone he knows. Brown admits that they are genuine and judges them severely
