Chronological Arrangement
The principles used to organize the records in this edition differ from those used in previous major witchcraft transcription collections, although three basic features of each document have been important factors in the arrangement of the entries in all editions: who is named in the document, what type of legal document it is, and when it was used. The main challenges for organizing such a collection concern what to do when a record names more t…

Tituba's Story
witchcraft is historically significant, for it confirmed witchcraft activity in the community.2 Although not the only slave caught up in the 1692 episode, Tituba has a unique role in the literature about Salem, for her story has taken on nothing short of mythical dimensions. As in the originary myth of the Fall, a woman, here a dark-skinned one, has carried the burden of having introduced sin and loss. As the events of 1692 unfolded, interest in …

Salem Story: Reading the Witch Trials of 1692
Salem Story engages the story of the Salem witch trials by contrasting an analysis of the surviving primary documentation with the way events of 1692 have been mythologised by our culture. Resisting the temptation to explain the Salem witch trials in the context of an inclusive theoretical framework, the book examines a variety of individual motives that converged to precipitate the witch-hunt. Of the many assumptions about the Salem witch trials…

Puritan Conscience and New England Slavery
AS has often and accurately been pointed out, agitation in puritan New England for the abolition of slavery was minimal. A murkier area of understanding, however, is to be found in the theological problem that slavery presented to the New England clergy. While the issues did not generate the passion and divisiveness as those emanating from New England's central theological question of the Lord's Supper, the matter raised religious questions that …
