Salem Witch Hunt - The 'Witches' of Salem
Salem Witch Hunt: The 'Witches' of Salem
This is one of Colonial America's most notorious cases of mass hysteria, and has been used in political rhetoric and popular literature as a vivid cautionary tale about the dangers of isolationism, religious extremism, false accusations and lapses in due process. It was not unique, but simply a Colonial American example of the much broader phenomenon of witch trials in the early modern period. Many historians consider the lasting effects of the trials to have been highly influential in subsequent United States history. According to historian George Lincoln Burr, the Salem witchcraft was the rock on which the theocracy shattered.
The Salem witch trials were a series of hearings and prosecutions of people accused of witchcraft in colonial Massachusetts between February 1692 and May 1693. The trials resulted in the executions of twenty people, fourteen of them women, and all but one by hanging. Twelve other women had previously been executed in Massachusetts and Connecticut during the 17th century. Despite being generally known as the Salem witch trials, the preliminary hearings in 1692 were conducted in several towns: Salem Village (now Danvers), Salem Town, Ipswich and Andover. The most infamous trials were conducted by the Court of Oyer and Terminer in 1692 in Salem Town.
In 17th-century Colonial America, the supernatural was considered part of everyday life; many people believed that Satan was present and active on Earth. This concept emerged in Europe during the fifteenth century and spread with the later colonization of North America Colonies. Peasants used a kind of witchcraft to invoke particular charms for farming and agriculture. Over time, the idea of white magic transformed into dark magic and became associated with demons and evil spirits. From 1560 to 1670, witchcraft persecutions became common as superstitions became associated with the devil.
In Against Modern Sadducism (1668), Joseph Glanvill claimed that he could prove the existence of witches and ghosts of the supernatural realm. Glanvill wrote about the denial of the bodily resurrection, and the [supernatural] spirits. In his treatise, he claimed that ingenious men should believe in witches and apparitions; if they doubted the reality of spirits, they not only denied demons, but also the almighty God. Glanvill wanted to prove that the supernatural could not be denied; those who did deny apparitions were considered heretics for it also disproved their beliefs in angels. Works by men such as Glanvill and Cotton Mather tried to prove that demons were alive.

Salem, the witch town of Massachusetts
#Salem -- #CanaldeJoseArcesio
Salem, the witch town of Massachusetts
Salem is a city in Essex County, Massachusetts, United States.
The so-called City of Witches (Witch City) because of the trials that took place in the year 1692, is located on the US Atlantic coast, 25 km north of Boston.
The city owes its growth to its strategic port, which acquired important influence during the peak of commercial traffic with Africa, India, Russia, Sumatra and China; in the eighteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth. Recently, and taking into account its history, as its rich architecture of the aforementioned period- (recognized aspects both locally and internationally), it was granted the status of National Historical Heritage. There are more than 60 restaurants, coffee shops and coffee shops in the center of the city.
Salem receives more than one million visitors a year, who come from all over the world. This city concentrates a great part of the historical places of the state of Massachusetts, in addition to museums, cultural activities, fine restaurants and select businesses.
The Samuel McIntyre Historic District consists of four hundred and seven buildings. It is the largest agglutination of buildings in colonial America in the United States. Inside it is McIntyre's own house. Samuel McIntyre, or McIntire, (January 16, 1757 February 6, 1811) was an American architect and craftsman. It is a prime example of federal style architecture. He developed most of his work in his hometown, Salem, Massachusetts.
Known as The people of witches, Salem is a city located in the state of Massachusetts that is currently visited by thousands of tourists intrigued by terrifying stories that are woven on that place.
The event that gave rise to the fame of witch people to Salem occurred in 1962, when the settlers began a witch hunt that ended with the imprisonment of more than 150 men and women.
This hunt began in January of that year, after the daughter of the Reverend Samuel Parris fell ill. The diagnosis of the doctor was that they had bewitched her.
That provoked a mass hysteria in Salem that caused 13 women and 6 men to be condemned to the gallows, accused of practicing witchcraft and performing satanic rites.
At present, there is a museum dedicated to explain this event, and a tour that takes tourists to visit the sites related to the witch hunt.

What Happened in Salem, MA in 1692? Know the Details, After the Trials Were Over (2004)
Salem is a coastal city in Essex County, Massachusetts, in the United States. Located on Massachusetts' North Shore, Salem is a New England bedrock of history and is considered one of the most significant seaports in Puritan American history. About the book:
The city's reported population was 41,340 at the 2010 census. Salem and Lawrence were the county seats of Essex County prior to the abolishment of county government in 1999.
The city is home to the House of Seven Gables, Salem State University, the Salem Willows Park, Forrest River Park, Federal Street District, Charter Street Historic District the Peabody Essex Museum[3][4][5][6] Salem is a residential and tourist area which includes the neighborhoods of Salem Neck, Downtown Salem District,[7] The Point, South Salem and North Salem, Witchcraft Heights, Pickering Wharf, and the McIntire Historic District[8] (named after Salem's famous architect and carver, Samuel McIntire).[9][10]
Featured notably in Arthur Miller's The Crucible, much of the city's cultural identity is reflective of its role as the location of the Salem witch trials of 1692: Police cars are adorned with witch logos, a local public school is known as the Witchcraft Heights Elementary School, the Salem High School athletic teams are named the Witches; and Gallows Hill, originally believed to be the site of numerous public hangings, is currently used as a playing field for various sports. Tourists know Salem as a mix of important historical sites and a vibrant downtown that has more than 60 restaurants, cafes and coffee shops.[11] In 2012, the Retailers Association of Massachusetts chose Salem as the recipient of their inaugural Best Shopping District award.[12]
President Barack Obama on January 10, 2013, signed executive order HR1339 designating Salem as the birthplace of the U.S. National Guard.[13][14][15][16]
More than one million tourists from all around the world visit Salem annually, bringing in at least $100 million in tourism spending each year. In 2016, during halloween-weekend, over 250,000 visited Salem.
The modern witch of Salem: Feminist, empowered and anti-Trump
Amid the rise in political activism, young American women have been drawn to witchcraft as a sign of feminism and community building. Salem, Massachusetts, home of the Salem Witch Trials, is ingrained in the mythos of witches and draws many women curious about the movement. Some of these witches come from families that have practiced witchcraft for generations, while others are new to the world of spells. But one thing the witches of Salem all have in common: they see it as a feminist practice.

Witches are a longstanding cultural icon, having been described in myths, legends, and even historical records for centuries. Two centuries ago many women have found themselves on the wrong end of an accusation of witchcraft and conspiring with the devil, and it would spell their doom. It's estimated that around 40,000 people were executed for the crime of witchcraft in Western Europe during the witch craze that swept the continent between the 15th and 17th centuries. Witch hunts even made their way to America, with colonies in New England, New Haven, and Connecticut playing host to witch hysteria. Not to mention the infamous witch trials in Salem, Massachusetts. Here are seven of the most famous so called witches in history.
