The fact that the good people of Salem talk French, and that the town itself is depicted as the type of medieval slum most often found in realist movies throws the entire production almost irretrievably off balance...

The positing of a time-spirit raises questions akin to those of the nominalist-realist controversy which occupied the minds of the medieval man that these historians write about: does the Zeitgeist have any universal validity or is it merely a magic name for uniting different manifestations of a culture? Bourne does an astute job of showing how the historians arrive at a causal Zeitgeist...
