    Norton presents a text where she offers a “new interpretation of the witchcraft crisis” of Salem, Massachusetts (101 of 8616). She argues that rather than solely analyzing Salem, scholars must analyze the whole of Essex County, Massachusetts (113,184). She also argues for the need for exploration of the history of the witchcraft crisis as a history of frontier warfare because of the military affairs such as King Williams’ War occurring simultaneously in New England as the rise of the witchcraft crisis (113). She examines the accusers and accused and displaced victims and refugees of the military affairs and boldly states in here conclusion that without war, there would have been no witchcraft crisis in Salem (6047).

    Ophelia, AKA the Witch of Morpheus, sat at a makeshift table, playing at eating her dinner as she contemplated all that had happened since the night she found herself on Morpheus, naked in a bed with a man she didn't even know. A shiver ran done her spine when she remembered how the feeling of unrealness had come over her and nearly destroyed her. She had fought against it and won the battle for reality that first night. The constant fear that the unreality would come back to claim her haunted her for months, but now she felt certain that she was firmly anchored in the real world. Ophelia remembered her encounter with her twin and the unreasoning fear she had felt and wondered why she felt it still.…

    Witches! The Absolutely True Tale of Disaster in Salem is a National Geographic book that gives an overview of the Salem Witch Trials from its start to its finish. The author, Rosalyn Schanzer, is complete in her telling of the events, starting from the point where no one guessed that the afflicted girls were being tortured by witches and ending with the stories of how each person lived out their lives after the trials ended. The drawback of recording over a year of time within 131 pages is that the information isn’t as in depth as possible, and though everything is touched on there are obvious focuses, such as the reverend, who appears on nearly twenty different pages, as opposed the the symptoms of the girls’ affliction which appeared on…

    Before and during the murder Lady Macbeth’s character changes from persuasive, manipulative and dominant to just dominant, but Macbeth’s character also changes but in a unique way since his character changes from a person who relies on others to decide for him to a remorseful person. Lady Macbeth’s character before the murder is persuasive and manipulative. Evidence for this can be found when Lady Macbeth is talking to Macbeth and she tries to make him decide on whether to kill Duncan or not by saying ‘I dare not wait upon I would’ or for him to ‘live a coward'. In addition to her being persuasive, it also seems as if she may be an impatient person, as she said, ‘I dare not wait’.…
