The witchcraft delusion in colonial Connecticut : 1647-1697

John M. Taylor’s study examines the social, legal, and religious forces that shaped witchcraft accusations in colonial Connecticut. It is historically significant for showing how local anxieties, Puritan theology, and community conflict produced the trials and persecutions of the late seventeenth century.

John M. Taylor is an obscure name in the context of esoteric literature, and I cannot reliably identify him with confidence. He may be associated with occult or religious writing, but I cannot responsibly supply further biographical detail.
