Answer:

D. It was the first captivity narrative that included religious references.

Explanation:

Mary Rowlandson (c.1637-1711) was a woman who lived in colonial America, and who wrote a vivid description of the three months she suffered as a Native American prisoner. His short book, A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson (History of the Captivity and Restitution of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson), is considered a seminal work in the American literary genre of captive narratives.

Rowlandson lived in Lancaster, Massachusetts, where she was the wife of a minister. On February 10, 1675, during the King Phillip's War, her house was an easy target for attack and was taken as a prisoner by the Indians, along with her three children. For almost ninety days she was forced to accompany her kidnappers as they moved through the forest, under what she described as terrible conditions, as they tried to elude the English Navy. The author describes the odyssey in twenty different "Camping", until finally reunited with her husband. She was released by John Hoar of Concord in Redemption Rock, Princeton, on May 2, 1676. During that time, one daughter died and two others had been separated from her, but in spite of everything, she found serenity in the Bible-- the text of his narrative is replete with verses and references describing similar conditions to his.

The writer was of the belief that everything that represented evil in the life of man was the product of a divine punishment for defying providence, a belief deeply rooted in the puritanical faith of the moment. In this way, the indigenous invasion of the village of Lancaster and the death of hundreds of people on both sides - the native and the English - was nothing more than the catastrophic outcome after the rupture of man with the will of God - which was He knew as the American Jeremiah.
