- W4205484033 abstract "This chapter presents a case study that highlights the intersections of religion with nation-building, race, and gender in an example from early America: the execution of four Quakers on the Boston Common between 1659 and 1661. By closely reading the discourse and ritual processes evident in these executions, it shows how overlapping constructions of authority by state and church established some basic terms around which religious violence has operated in American history from almost the first years that Europeans established settlements. It suggests that Mary Dyer was executed to solve a “crisis of differentiation.” She manifested a form of “ecstatic asceticism” that produced a mirror reaction by the established power and led to her execution in what can be described as an act of “performative violence.” She was, in short, sacrificed to produce cultural power for the Puritans. This single event set America on its course as an empire of sacrifice, in patterns that the filmmaker Tim Robbins carefully reiterated and critiqued in his 1996 film Dead Man Walking." @default.
