Puritans- The Founding Fathers,
By Joseph Adams "brother" (Superior, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Puritan Rhetoric: The Issue of Emotion in Religion (Landmarks in Rhetoric & Public Address) (Hardcover)
The Puritans are the founding fathers of the United States, victims of religous persecution in Europe who fled on the Mayflower to the New World, founding Jamestown and Plymouth among others the first white settlements in America. This book deals with the issue of emotion of religion, trying to paint a picture of pilgrims as a modern figure that was disrupted by the Great Awakening and split New England. The second part is five speeches that illuminate the stages of the Awakening and the confrontations among the protagonists. Includes terror preaching, oblique apposition between the chief protagonists of the revival dividing New England into two camps.
