EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title-page of a witch hunt pamphlet by Cotton Mather, printed in Boston in 1693. The image takes us back to the dark times of the Salem witch trials, where superstition and propaganda fueled a wave of persecution. Cotton Mather, a prominent Puritan minister during that era, played an influential role in these events. This chilling pamphlet served as both a diatribe and a list of written observations on witchcraft and demonic forces. Its purpose was to justify the purges that took place in Massachusetts during the 17th century. The intricate details on this title-page draw our attention with their eerie depiction of devils and other supernatural beings. It serves as a reminder of how deeply ingrained fear can be within society. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported to an era filled with mass hysteria and unjust accusations. It stands as evidence of humanity's capacity for cruelty when driven by irrational beliefs. This print from Bridgeman Images captures not only the physical appearance but also the essence of this significant tome from American history. It is a powerful testament to the struggles faced by those accused during one of America's darkest chapters – reminding us never to repeat such injustices again.
