Christian Sorcerers on Trial
In 1829, three women and three men were paraded through Osaka and crucified. Middle-aged widows, the women made a living as mediums, healers, and fortune-tellers. Placards set up at the execution ground proclaimed their crime: they were devotees of the "pernicious creed" of Christianity.
No one in Japan had been identified and punished as a Christian for more than a century, and now, avowed devotees of the proscribed sect had appeared in the very heart of the realm. Two of the men dabbled in divination; the third was a doctor who collected books in Chinese on Western learning and Christianity.This was a startling development. Just decades before the arrival of Perry's black ships and the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate, the incident reignited fears of Christians as evil sorcerers, plotting to undermine society and overthrow the country.Christian Sorcerers on Trial
