更多“Indian losses in the war were much heavier than ().”相关的问题
While witchcraft was often feared, it was punished only infrequently. In the first 70 years of the New England settlement, about 100 people were formally charged with being witches; fewer than two dozen were convicted and fewer still were executed.
Then came 1692. In January of that year, two young girls living in the household of the Reverend Samuel Parris of Salem Village began experiencing strange fits. The doctor identified witchcraft as the cause. After weeks of questioning, the girls named Tituba, Parris's female Indian slave, and two local women were regarded as the witches who were tormenting them.
Judging by previous incidents, one would have expected the episode to end there. But it didn't. Other young Salem women began to suffer fits as well, Before the crisis ended, 19 people formally accused others of afflicting them, 54 residents of Essex County, confessed to being witches and nearly 150. people were charged with consorting with the devil. What led to this？
Traditionally, historians have argued that the witchcraft crisis resulted from. factionalism in Salem Village, deliberate faking, or possibly the ingestion of hallucinogens by the afflicted. I believe another force was at work. The events in Salem were precipitated by a conflict with the Indians on the northeastern frontier, the most significant surge of violence in the region in nearly 40 years.
In two little-known wars, fought largely in Maine, from 1675 to 1678 and from 1688 to 1699, English settlers suffered devastating losses at the hands of Wabanaki Indians and their French allies. The key afflicted accusers in the Salem crisis were frontier refugees whose families had been wiped out in the wars. These tormented young women said they saw the devil in the shape of an Indian. In testimony, they accused the witches' reputed ringleader--the Reverend George Burroughs, formerly pastor of Salem Village--of bewitching the soldiers dispatched to fight the Wabanakis. While Tituba, one of the first people, accused of witchcraft, has traditionally been portrayed as a black or, mulatto woman from Barbados, all the evidence points to her being an American Indian.
To the Puritan settlers, who believed themselves to he God's chosen people, witchcraft explained why they were losing the war so badly. Their Indian enemies had the devil on their side.
In late summer, some prominent blew Englanders began to criticize the witch prosecutions. In response to the dissent, Governor Sir William Phips of Massachusetts dissolved in October the special court he had established to handle the trials. But before he stopped the legal process, 14 women and 5 men had been hanged. Another man was crushed to death by stones for refusing to enter a plea. The war with the Indians continued for six more years, though sporadically. Slowly, northern New Englanders began to feel more secure, And they soon regretted the events of 1692.
Within five years, one judge and 12 jurors formally apologized as the colony declared a day of fasting and prayer to atone for the injustices that had been committed. In 1711, the state compensated the families of the victims.
And last year, more than three centuries after the settlers reacted to an external threat by lashing out irrationally, the convicted were cleared by name in a Massachusetts statute. It's a story worth remembering--and not just on Halloween.
