The making of Salem

the witch trials in history, fiction and tourism

by Robin DeRosa

  • First published:
  • 21st century
  • Language: English

The Salem Witch Trials of 1692 are a case study in hysteria and group psychology, and the cultural effects still linger centuries later. This critical study examines original trial transcripts, historical accounts, fiction and drama, film and television shows, and tourist sites in contemporary Salem, challenging the process of how history is collected and recorded
