The Thesis
The thesis is about the process that transpired in Salem Village and made it well recognized all over the world.

Sources Scrutinized
The sources that are being scrutinized here are from various sources. The basic explorations are done from some literary works and some online articles. Reading of Chapter 2 from ‘After the Fact’ by Davidson and Lytle (1982) is the basic source for the thesis. Added to this there are some additional sources derived from the reading of Duck (2008).
The sources are authenticated as per the understanding of the reasons behind the transpired situation in Salem village. The declarations made by Davidson and Lytle are all related to the invisible to visible condition of the people of Salem and that brings in various contexts related to the social structure of 1962 and its influence over the present times. It is in chapter 2 that the context related to the supernatural scenario grows towards the recognition of women power and an eventual establishment of the same. This particular theme has been analyzed by Duck with the process of determining the social structure for creating identity crisis in women and her fight to establish her entity. It is through Duck that the research has got the dimension to compare and contrast the depictions led by Davidson and Lytle with other representations. The theme of women leadership and the means to understand their existence are some of the chief features that this thesis aims to intervene.
