Since the time of the witch burnings, the grandmothers and the healers and the midwives have been systematically targeted. And burned at the stake for hundreds of years, decimating whole communities.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Witches were burned and killed in Scotland and England for centuries before what happened in Salem.
The number of witches had everywhere become enormous.
Imagine: in the medieval ages, there was no evidence of how the history of mankind has been affected by witchcraft. But there is significant factual history of how brutality and sadism of mankind have been displayed in the most obscene manner in the name of witch-hunt.
Who are taking to the witch burning Saturday night?
Each of the seventeen tribunals during a long period burned annually, on an average, ten miserable beings!
The plain truth is that the period I study is the 16th century, and they were absolutely obsessed with witches and spiritual beings.
I was interested in what was really going on in Salem at that time, and I resolved to investigate this seemingly unorthodox treatment of the people and the period.
I do love that witches haven't really been explored that much. Usually, witches are the little side character... a bad female character that comes in and leaves.
Every burned book enlightens the world.
In the past, men created witches: now they create mental patients.
