Salem - A Literary Profile de Clara Petino

Salem - A Literary Profile

Autor Clara Petino
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 mai 2021
To this day, Salem, Massachusetts, is synonymous with the witch trials of 1692. Their unique pace and structure has not only made the infamous town a strong cultural metaphor, but has generated countless novels, short stories, and plays over the past 200 years. This book marks the first comprehensive analysis of literary Salem and its historical as well as contemporary significance, from Nathaniel Hawthorne¿s literature of the 19th century to Arthur Miller¿s The Crucible to a growing corpus of contemporary fiction.

Descriere

This book attempts a profile of literary Salem by analyzing recurring themes and motifs such as real estate conflicts, the infamous afflicted girls, Salem's metaphorical significance in politics, the motif of ancestry tracing, the re-appropriation of the witch as a figure of female empowerment, and the fear of history repeating.
