Damned Women

Sinners and Witches in Puritan New England

by Elizabeth Reis

Synopsis

When exploring the course of events at Salem, historians have often ignored assumptions about gender embedded within Puritan cosmology. The author of this work examines how gender systems cut across religious belief, showing the proscription of women's 'sinful natures' and men's 'natural sins'.
