Salem. 1692. The events that took place in the town of Salem and nearby towns in
Massachusetts will be forever regarded as one of our young nation's most
tarnished moments in history. We won't forget. We can't forget.
Since 1999, this site has served to chronicle the events that took place during
one of the darkest moments in U.S. history. Witchcraft? Voodoo? Free speech
before the Consitution? Political agendas? Personal vendettas? This website
covers plenty. From a scholarly perspective detailing the events that led to
what is widely regarded as a judicial travesty to the biographies of the
afflicted, the accused and the victims, we have it all here.

The Spanish Inquisition was an historical institution founded under Ferdinand
and Isabella of Castile in 1478 to suppress heresies within the Roman Catholic
Church. The Inquisition was primarily under the control of the Spanish monarch,
with only the Inquisitor General appointed by Rome.
In the history of the Catholic Inquisition, the Spanish Inquisition is
especially notorious, particularly in the nature of the auto de fe, or trials,
of converted Muslims, Jews, and Illuminists. This Inquisition also gave rise to
the Peruvian Inquisition and the Mexican Inquisition, which continued until
those countries received their independence from Spain.

War of the Worlds, Orson Welles, And The Invasion from Mars
http://www.transparencynow.com/welles.htm
As it listened to this simulation of a news broadcast, created with voice acting
and sound effects, a portion of the audience concluded that it was hearing an
actual news account of an invasion from Mars. People packed the roads, hid in
cellars, loaded guns, even wrapped their heads in wet towels as protection from
Martian poison gas, in an attempt to defend themselves against aliens, oblivious
to the fact that they were acting out the role of the panic-stricken public that
actually belonged in a radio play. Not unlike Stanislaw Lem's deluded populace,
people were stuck in a kind of virtual world in which fiction was confused for
fact..........
In a prescient column, in the New York Tribune, Dorothy Thompson foresaw that
the broadcast revealed the way politicians could use the power of mass
communications to create theatrical illusions, to manipulate the public.
"All unwittingly, Mr. Orson Welles and the Mercury Theater of the Air have made
one of the most fascinating and important demonstrations of all time," she
wrote. "They have proved that a few effective voices, accompanied by sound
effects, can convince masses of people of a totally unreasonable, completely
fantastic proposition as to create a nation-wide panic.
"They have demonstrated more potently than any argument, demonstrated beyond a
question of a doubt, the appalling dangers and enormous effectiveness of popular
and theatrical demagoguery....
"Hitler managed to scare all of Europe to its knees a month ago, but he at least
had an army and an air force to back up his shrieking words.
"But Mr. Welles scared thousands into demoralization with *nothing* *at* *all."*

"Nemesis, winged one that tips the scales of life,
dark-eyed goddess, daughter of Justice,
you restrain the futile pride of mortals with your unyielding bridle and,
hating hurtful vanity, destroy black envy: below your wheel,
always moving but leaving no trace, the fortune of man turns.
Unseen, you come at once to defeat arrogance;
by your hand you gauge the span of life, and, frowning,
you scrutinise the thoughts of men, you always hold the balance.
Be merciful, hallowed judge, winged Nemesis, life's force.
We honour you, Nemesis, immortal goddess,
victory incarnate with wings unfurled, faultless,
sharing the throne of Justice; you resent human vanity
and banish men to Tartarus below"
