The Salem witch trials, a shameful episode in early New England history, provided a salient theme for several nineteenth-century American writers, including John Greenleaf Whittier and John William De Forest. Novelist and reformer John Neal (1793-1876) was an advocate of, among other causes, female suffrage and capital punishment reform. His novel, Rachel Dyer (1828) deals with the hysteria and scapegoating that surrounded the trials. Mixing drama with history, Neal exposes, through his protagonists, the still explosive issues of injustice and religious bigotry.

Not illustrated. 1828 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XV. So then--It was Bridget Pope you were speaking of all the time, hey, continued the father. To be sure it was--what's the matter now? Why a a the fact is, brother--You are displeased, I see. Not at all--not in the least--no business of mine, brother George--none at all, if you like Bridget Pope as much as ever--child though she is--no business of mine brother Burroughs--I am sure of that. So am I--You may laugh brother B., you may laugh. So I shall brother P.--so I shall. O, the sick and sore jealousy of a father! Why--do you not know Matthew Paris--have I not given you the proof--that your Abigail is to me even as if she were my own child--the child of my own dear Sarah? And is not my feeling toward poor Bridget Pope that of one who foresees that her life is to be a life, perhaps of uninterrupted trial and sorrow, because of her extraordinary character. I do acknowledge to you that my heart grows heavy when I think of what she will have to endure, with her sensibility--poor child--she is not of the race about her--There now George--there it is again I That poor child has never been out of your head, I do believe, since you saw her jump into the sea after little Robert Eve leth; and if she were but six or eight years older, I am persuaded from what I now see, and from what I have seen before Matthew Paris! Forgive me George--forgive me--I have gone too far. You have gone too far. Will you not forgive me? I do--I do--I feel what you have said though; I feel it sharply--it was like an arrow, or a knife--Allow me to say--No, no--excuse me--I know what you would say. Her great resemblance to your wife, which everybody speaks of, and her beauty--No, no, Matthew, no, no....I cannot bear such talk. Ah George! Both my wives were very...

The half-blood—half Indian, half white—is a frequent figure in the popular fiction of nineteenth-century America, for he (or sometimes she) served to symbolize many of the conflicting cultural values with which American society was then wrestling. In literature, as in real life the half-blood was a product of the frontier, embodying the conflict between wilderness and civilization that haunted and stirred the American imagination. What was his identity? Was he indeed "half Indian, half white, and half devil"—or a bright link between the races from which would emerge a new American prototype? In this important first study of the fictional half-blood, William J. Scheick examines works ranging from the enormously popular "dime novels" and the short fiction of such writers as Bret Harte to the more sophisticated works of Irving, Cooper, Poe, Hawthorne, and others. He discovers that ambivalence characterized nearly all who wrote of the half-blood. Some writers found racial mixing abhorrent, while others saw more benign possibilities. The use of a "half-blood in spirit"—a character of untainted blood who joined the virtues of the two races in his manner of life—was one ingenious literary strategy adopted by a number of writers, Scheick also compares the literary portrayal of the half-blood with the nineteenth-century view of the mulatto. This pioneering examination of an important symbol in popular literature of the last century opens up a previously unexplored repository of attitudes toward American civilization. An important book for all those concerned with the course of American culture and literature.
