1. tituba La Première Sorcière Des Procès à Salem

2. L’histoire de Sa Vie L’origine de la femme en question est disputée par de nombreux de scolaires. Il y a un qui dit qu’elle est née en Barbade où le Révérende Samuel Parris l’a acheté (elle était esclave). Il y a des autres qui disent qu’elle était Indienne, ou Africaine. Samuel Parris avait une maison en Barbade, ainsi il est plus probable que Tituba soit Barbadienne.Il n’yexiste pas de déclarations de Tituba, elle-même, parce qu’elle était esclave. Elle ne savait pas comment écrire. On doit se pencher sur les archives du procès. Le livre écrit par Maryse Condé est une fiction mais basée sur le procès tout de même.

4. Après le diner, Tituba leur racontaient des histoires de son pays, de la magie, et des esprits.

5. Elle a joué avec les prédictions de l’avenir.

7. Elles ont la maladie de la sorcellerie.

8. Pour trouver la sorcière, Tituba a cuit « un gâteau des sorcières » avec le seigle et l’urine de Betty.

9. Elle a donné ce gâteau au chien, « le familier » pour qu’il puisse leur révéler l’identité de la sorcière.

11. Les Confessions Tituba a avoué d’être sorcière. Elle a accusé deux autres femmes, et donc à commencer le jeux de “Blâme.” Elle a parlé aux chiens noirs, aux cochons, aux oiseaux jaunes et aux autres animaux. Elle a parlé d’utiliser un bâton pour voyager. Elle a convaincu la ville que le diable était là parmi eux.
