Book excerpt: For a maturing child, turning from sixteen to seventeen is an exhilarating, hope filled experience. For hope filled Margaret Jacobs in 1692 Salem, Massachusetts, it was quite the opposite. It was, for her, a time of unquestionable horror. Caught between the truth, and with it, her certain death, or lies and with them, her probable death but assuredly, the certain death of her soul. Margaret had to choose, alone. This novel, based on the true historical accounting, follows the remarkable experiences that paved that transition in the life of a genuinely courageous young woman and her accusers. She was arrested with her honest, God fearing but, irascible grandfather, and her sadly sullen, distracted mother, early in the Salem Witch Hunt of 1692. They had all been charged with performing witchcraft, a crime punishable by death. She awaited her execution while others, including her grandfather were being tried, convicted and executed for crimes they did not commit and knowing her turn would soon come. That she was treated as a repulsive, devil worshiping criminal, subjected to every unimaginable humiliation and threatened with worse was an almost daily experience in the dirty, squalid, closely confined cell of the Salem Gaol. The intelligence and bravery of young Margaret Jacobs in the face of certain death is an inspiration to every generation of people of any age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Well-written, scrupulously researched, and simultaneously sympathetic and critical toward its subject, Reynolds's book is important not only for its historically responsive account of Hawthorne's widely misunderstood politics but also its invigorating portrait of a perceptive author who struggled to resist the political extremism that swept the Northern states before and after the bombardment of Fort Sumter." ---New England Quarterly "This beautifully written, thoroughly researched study faces criticism of Hawthorne, both in his day and the present, for his stance on slavery and the Civil War. . . . Reynolds shows Hawthorne to have rejected the extremism of the abolitionists, been a pacifist who hoped war could be avoided . . . and hated slavery even more than war---but at the same to have been deeply prejudiced, to have feared amalgamation (or miscegenation), and never to have acknowledged the real horrors of slavery." ---Choice Widely condemned even in his own time, Nathaniel Hawthorne's views on abolitionism and slavery are today frequently characterized by scholars as morally reprehensible. Devils and Rebels explores the historical and biographical record to reveal striking evidence of the author's true political values---values grounded in pacifism and resistant to the kind of binary thinking that could lead to violence and war. With fresh readings of Hawthorne's four major romances and his less familiar works, Devils and Rebels illuminates the difficulties faced by public intellectuals during times of political strife---an issue as relevant today as it was some 150 years ago. Larry J. Reynolds is Thomas Franklin Mayo Professor of Liberal Arts and Professor of English at Texas A&M University.
Download or read book Witchcraft in Early North America written by Alison Games and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2010-10-16 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witchcraft in Early North America investigates European, African, and Indian witchcraft beliefs and their expression in colonial America. Alison Games's engaging book takes us beyond the infamous outbreak at Salem, Massachusetts, to look at how witchcraft was a central feature of colonial societies in North America. Her substantial and lively introduction orients readers to the subject and to the rich selection of documents that follows. The documents begin with first encounters between European missionaries and Native Americans in New France and New Mexico, and they conclude with witch hunts among Native Americans in the years of the early American republic. The documents—some of which have never been published previously—include excerpts from trials in Virginia, New Mexico, and Massachusetts; accounts of outbreaks in Salem, Abiquiu (New Mexico), and among the Delaware Indians; descriptions of possession; legal codes; and allegations of poisoning by slaves. The documents raise issues central to legal, cultural, social, religious, and gender history. This fascinating topic and the book’s broad geographic and chronological coverage make this book ideally suited for readers interested in new approaches to colonial history and the history of witchcraft.
