SUMMARY:"A Storm of Witchcraft: The Salem Trials and the American Experience" a Lecture by Emerson "Tad" Baker
DESCRIPTION:On April 7th\, The House of the Seven Gables will be hosting Professor Emerson “Tad” Baker for a lecture about his new book.  The author will discuss his recent book which sets the Salem Witch Trials in the broader context of American history from the seventeenth century to the present\, and examines their enduring legacy. \nFocusing on the key players in the Salem witchcraft crisis—the accused witches and the people they allegedly bewitched\, as well as the judges and government officials who prosecuted them—Emerson Baker illuminates why the tragedy unfolded as it did. He shows how the Puritan government’s attempts to suppress what had taken place only fueled the popular imagination\, and established the trials as a turning point from Puritan communalism to Yankee independence. He also sets the trials in the broader context of American history from the 1620s up through the present\, and reveals the ways their legacy remains with us. \nEmerson “Tad” Baker is a professor of History at Salem State University.  He is the award-winning author of many works on the history and archaeology of early New England\, including A Storm of Witchcraft: The Salem Trials and the American Experience and The Devil of Great Island: Witchcraft and Conflict in Early New England. He has served as an advisor for PBS-TV’s American Experience and Colonial House\, and has consulted and appeared in many documentaries on the Salem witch trials\, and has also co-authored an iPhone app on the witchcraft crisis. He regularly tweets on the Salem witch trials and early New England history at @EmersonWBaker. \nWhat:  A Lecture by Emerson “Tad” Baker about his new book: A Storm of Witchcraft: The Salem Trials and the American Experience \nWhen: January 27th\, 2015 at 6PM \nWhere: The House of the Seven Gables\, 115 Derby Street\, Salem\, Massachusetts 01970 \nFree for members; $10.00 for non-members. \nReservations are highly recommended.  To make reservations please contact Ryan Conary\, Marketing and Group Sales Coordinator at rconary@7gables.org or by calling 978-744-0991 ext. 104.
