Conversing by Signs: Poetics of Implication in Colonial New England Culture New edition
Robert Blair St. George
The author demonstrates how New England colonialists lived in a densely metaphoric landscape, exploring the links between such cultural expressions as witchcraft narratives and 18th-century crowd violence. He questions the actual impact of the Enlightenment on this climate of fear and instability.
