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. Drawing from literary and
historical theory, as well as from performance studies, the book
offers a new definition of presenting history and uses Salem as a
tool for rethinking the relationships between the truth and the
stories people tell about the past.
