I know it's clunky, but should this be a bit longer of a title? Like Iudicium in Magas apud Salem? Iudicium Magarum doesn't sound to me ears like Salem witch trials.--Ioshus ^(disp) 23:59, 21 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)[reply]

L&S: "omnia judicia aut distrahendarum controversiarum aut puniendorum maleficiorum causā reperta sunt, Cic. Caecin. 2 : dignitatis meae, concerning, id. Brut. 1, 1 : praetor judicium prius de probro, quam de re fieri maluit, id. Quint." It seems that the thing undergoing judgment is (1) genitive or (2) ablative after de. So Iudicium/Iudicia magarum apud Salem? IacobusAmor 00:39, 22 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If it's good enough for Cicero. Let's do it. But I think it should be plural, after all, it was several trials.--Ioshus ^(disp) 01:36, 22 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Purgati?[fontem recensere]

Re: "ab religiosis nomine Purgati." Oiei! Who are these Purged People (Purgati)? If they're supposed to be 'puritans,' we have (says Du Cange) a perfectly good modern Latin term for them: puritani, -orum. If something more classical is wanted, puritans are homines qui puriorem religionem profitentur. IacobusAmor 00:56, 22 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)[reply]

De commentarii natura[fontem recensere]

This article has the flavour of a (junior-?)high-school student's paper, not of an encyclopedia article. Compare what it says with what en: says, and you'll see the difference. Drastically revise it, cutting most of the text? IacobusAmor 18:40, 19 Octobris 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the previous speaker!

To me the title seems POV: by calling the women "magae" we are condemning them. I guess the English name of the events is enshrined in history, but in Latin we can do better. I suggest "Iudicia de magia apud Salem acta". (Or "de magica", but "De magia" was the title of Lucius Apuleius's defence when he was accused of witchcraft.)

Sic! Praeterea: some of the accused & convicted & executed were males, so avoiding the femininity of magae would make for more accurate history. IacobusAmor 11:24, 3 Decembris 2011 (UTC)[reply]
