Her short book, A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson , is considered a seminal work in the American literary genre of captivity narratives Born Mary White in England , she lived in the frontier village of Lancaster Massachusetts . She was the daughter of one of the towns founding fathers (Vaughan 1981, 32) and she married Joseph Rowlandson in 1656. Her husband was ordained a Puritan minister in 1660. At sunrise, on February 10 , during King Philip's War , the bloodiest war in American colonial history, Lancaster came under attack by a band of Nashaway Indians. She was the mother of three, Joseph, Mary, and Sarah , and was among the hostages taken that day. For eleven weeks and five days (Neubauer 2001, 70), she was forced to accompany her captors as they fled through the wilderness to elude the colonial militia, under what she describes as horrible conditions. In simple, artless prose she recounts the stages of the odyssey in twenty distinct "Removes" or journeys. She witnessed the murder of her friends, the death of one of her children, and suffered starvation and depression, until she was finally reunited with her husband. On

Internet Research Guide Textbook Site for: The Heath Anthology of American Literature , Fifth Edition Mary White Rowlandson’s narrative of her three-month captivity by Algonkian Indians during King Philip’s War (1675–1678) was one of the first bestsellers in American literature. Four editions of the The Soveraignty and Goodness of GOD, Together With the Faithfulness of His Promises Displayed; Being a Narrative of the Captivity and Restauration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson appeared in 1682, and it remained a popular success into the early nineteenth century. In moments of national crisis such as the American Revolution, new editions of Rowlandson’s text figured prominently in the discourse of national rights and of God’s challenges to the nation. More than thirty editions have been published to date, and the Narrative is acknowledged as a major contribution to an early American genre, the captivity narrative, which extends back to the period of European exploration. (See, for instance, the Hopi account, “The Coming of the Spanish.”) The genre was explored by many other early writers, including John Gyles and Elizabeth Meader Hanson, who experienced real-life captivities.

    Extractions: Mary Rowlandson. Group A: Group B: We found a few passages that we think are important to the understanding of Rowlandson's journey. In the first remove Rowlandson comments on her losses. She says that her children, relations, friends, house, and home are all gone. In the second remove, Rowlandson talks about how she must travel with the Indians into the vast wilderness. This travel enables her to look into herself and strengthen her faith in God. Evidence of her enhanced sense of faith in God is in the third remove where she is sent a Bible and she is amazed at God's mercy. We also thought that the section in the eighth remove where Philip asks Rowlandson to make a shirt for his son was important because she is paid for her work, signifying that she has gained value. These are just some of the passages that we thought showed what Rowlandson went through on her journey. Group C: Our group thought that a significant part of Rowlandson's journey was her move away from her beliefs during her captivity. The first example of this would be in the introduction when she said that before this she thought she would rather die than be taken, but then changed her mind. The second is when her baby dies and she says, "I cannot but take notice how at another time I could not bear to be in the room where any dead person was, but now the case is changed." The third example was when she actually began to use them for her purposes. Example: at the beginning of the thirteenth removal when she makes clothes in exchange for food. Also in the nineteenth removal when she makes clothes for other material possessions. All in all she made a remarkable journey within herself from her beliefs and what she held holy to survival instincts by which she lived through the ordeal.

    Extractions: Mary Rowlandson's description of her experiences being held captive by Indians during the Metacom Wars in17th century New England represent the birth of a narrative genre. What characterizes the Rowlandson's narrative as particular is both the vivid detail of her experience and the ways her survival is woven through the Calvinist doctrine's of New England's Puritan religious communities. The narrative itself represents the sheer trauma of Rowlandson's experiences in a language that appeals relentlessly to salvation discourse and it is apparent that her religious passions sustained her to some degree during her three months as a hostage with the Naragansett Indians. It is also difficult to deny the ways the narrative is written after-the-fact and represents a particular reconstruction of the experience. It is in reading the narrative is a context of post-traumatic writing that it becomes possible to understand how Rowlandson's writing constitutes a particular act of recovery.

    Extractions: Thursday, February 10, A state of alertness prevailed in the town of Lancaster, Massachusetts. Its 50 families were always ready to crowd into the 5 or 6 garrison houses in case of an Amerindian attack. The continual war between King Philip's forces and colonial troops made everyone aware of imminent danger. Joseph Rowlandson, minister to the small frontier town, was in Boston appealing, once again, to the colonial government for protection. His appeal fell on deaf ears; the danger from attack was rated as minor. Amerindians who had been driven from their territory by colonial troops were in desperate need of supplies. Lancaster would have all that was needed and, being undermanned, would not be able to resist the attack effectively. Thus while Reverend Rowlandson appealed for aid, warriors attacked his home and family. Sunrise: Thirty-seven people were housed in the Rowlandson garrison house. Abruptly gun shots were heard, three other houses were under attack. It was not long before the warriors turned to the Rowlandson's house. Amid a flurry of bullets, three men were killed. Suddenly the smell of smoke permeated the inside of the house; the attackers had succeeded in setting fire to it. As the inhabitants came out, the warriors attacked them. Mrs. Rowlandson relates

See now that I, even I am he, and there is no god with me, I kill and I make alive, I wound and I heal, neither is there any can deliver out of my hand. I had often before this said that if the Indians should come, I should choose rather to be killed by them than taken alive, but when it came to the trial my mind changed; their glittering weapons so daunted my spirit, that I chose rather to go along with those (as I may say) ravenous beasts, than that moment to end my days; and that I may the better declare what happened to me during that grievous captivity, I shall particularly speak of the several removes we had up and down the wilderness. The First Remove Those seven that were killed at Lancaster the summer before upon a Sabbath day, and the one that was afterward killed upon a weekday, were slain and mangled in a barbarous manner, by one-eyed John, and Marlborough's Praying Indians, which Capt. Mosely brought to Boston, as the Indians told me.
