I’m working on a history discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

write two (2) posts where you address all of the followingthree questions about the Salem Witchcraft Trials. Your two posts may be answering two of the three questions.

Before writing the 1st post, read pdf file attached that contains articles on the Salem WitchcraftTrials. They are “The Afflicted Girls of Salem Village” by Kathy Weiserand “The Theory That May Explain What Was Tormenting the Afflicted inSalem’s Witch Trials” by Nik DeCosta-Klipa. Read these articles to helpdecipher reasons for the afflicted girls’ physical symptoms and reasonsthey accused other villagers of being witches. Understanding thecontent of these articles are necessary to help formulate your post.

Here are the questions you can address:

1. In general terms, what do you believe are the strengths andshortcomings of ascribing medical explanations to long ago historicalfigures whom present-day doctors cannot directly diagnose? Doyou believe with brilliant insight, it can be effective? Or is at besthit and miss? Or do you believe it to be completely flawed? Can forexample, modern-day doctors accurately diagnose if the afflicted girlsof Salem Village suffered from stress, epilepsy, ergot poisoning ordelusional psychosis?
2. Provide your interpretation why the girls exhibited theirphysically symptoms and accused others in the community of being witches.Did they appear bored and were looking for attention? Did they appearto be malevolent and vengeful in their accusations? Did they appearreally to believe they were under the spell of witches? Did they appearto be acting out in a stressful or repressive environment? Or do youbelieve this is something unknowable and why? Provide your best supportand insight to the position you decide to take incorporating if youlike from Kathy Weiser’s brief biographies of the afflicted SalemVillage girls.
3. After reading the central ideas to Nik DeCosta-Klipa’s “mass conversion disorder” theory, do you believe this disorder may be a compelling reason to explain the afflicted girls’ behavior?Why or why not? Build your position by looking at the evidence andsupport DeCosta-Klipa provides or, if you choose, point out any flaws orshortcomings in his article
