The Witch

Circular Reasoning Before the miracle of modern medicine, the child mortality rate was unfortunately high. Mrs. Ann Putnam, the mother of Ruth and wife of Thomas Putnam, lost seven children before they even reached a day old. When Rebecca Nurse, a well-respected elder in Salem, learns that Mrs. Putnam sent her own child to the slave who is accused of causing the comatose states of Ruth Putnam and Betty Parris, she is appalled. Mrs. Putnam spits back, “Let God blame me, not you, not you, Rebecca!…

people. My main comparisons will be about the dangers of dating apps, social media serial rapists, and men finding underage girls. I will be using details from “The Crucible” , “The Demons of Salem, With Us Still” to prove that child predators are like witch hunters. The first comparison is how the dangers of dating apps are like witches hunting, but the predators on the dating apps are men. The article being compared is, “Dating App Dangers”, it is about a man having women meet him somewhere…

in that there would be no heir to the kingdom. One day, a greedy youthful witch came inside the kingdom. She supposedly had the magic to allow people who couldn’t have kids to have kids. News about the witch’s special ability spread around and reached to the king. He told his servants to bring the witch. Right away, the servants brought the witch, and the king demanded her to help his wife give birth to a child. The witch agreed to help the king and did not want anything in return, which was…

Since it’s mainstream release in early 2016, Robert Eggers’ The Witch has attracted much attention and numerous accolades for its unique and arthouse-esque take on the horror genre. His directorial debut, the story of a devout Christian family terrorized by unknown forces in the wilds of colonial America has left audiences as perplexed as it has greatly unsettled. Much of the details of the story remain shrouded in mystery, and this has inspired many different interpretations of the film’s…

Comparable to Psycho’s musical framework, The Witch efficiently conveys tension with its cacophonous musical composition. Seeking a symphonic method to arouse psychological discomfort, Canadian composer Mark Korven sought to write a score that would add intimidation to the film’s narrative. Korven obtained the film’s aqueous shrieking sounds by utilizing various stringed instruments such as the Swedish Nyckelharpa, Finnish Jouhikko, a hand-cranked Hurdy-Gurdy, and the inharmonic Waterphone.…

Not literal witch hunts, of course. I’m talking about when a person gores on a rampage while trying to find the person who spread a nasty rumor about them. There were more than a few times I got my ass kicked as the tried and convicted culprit of the rumors. I was always…

A witch hunt occurs when a person or group is hunted due to accusations targeting them. Personally when hearing about this topic I was highly interested in not only what counted as a witch hunt, but what events in history could be considered as witch hunts.

air, hear the quietness out in the forest. In The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe they have a lot in common and differences with the book and the movie. I prefer the book version of The Lion,The Witch,The Wardrobe because there is a lot of detail that is in the book but not the movies. In the movie and book The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe have a lot in common, First of all, they both are stories in a wonderland place with a bad witch. In addition, they try to save Mr. Tumnus. Also in…

you are imagining right now. It’s Narnia. The unbelievable land where it’s always dark and cold. It’s a place where four siblings went during World War II as C.S. Lewis mentioned in his book. He wrote the book of chronicles of Narnia The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrope in a way based on his characterization. By reading the book and watching the movie, we can see that the author loved little children as he put them as characters of the story. He also…
