This book was released on 1955 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extraordinary growth of the Catholic Church in the United States during the century and a half which followed upon the Declaration of Independence (1776) can be explained in various ways. In part, it was due to conversions, to natural increase, and to the incorporation of territories colonized by Catholic powers. But most of all it was due to a large immigration from Catholic countries; an immigration both of the laity who swelled our numbers and of the clergy who cared for their spiritual needs until a native American clergy had the time to developed. This fact has not been overlooked by writers on either side of the Atlantic. But Europe's contribution to our weaving also included threads of different hue, which have received considerably less attention because they are far less brilliant and less pleasant to contemplate, though they loom large in the fabric of American Church history.

Book Synopsis A History of the Book in America by : Hugh Amory
Download or read book A History of the Book in America written by Hugh Amory and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 665 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World carries the interrelated stories of publishing, writing, and reading from the beginning of the colonial period in America up to 1790. Three major themes run through the volume: the persisting connections between the book trade in the Old World and the New, evidenced in modes of intellectual and cultural exchange and the dominance of imported, chiefly English books; the gradual emergence of a competitive book trade in which newspapers were the largest form of production; and the institution of a "culture of the Word," organized around an essentially theological understanding of print, authorship, and reading, complemented by other frameworks of meaning that included the culture of republicanism. The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World also traces the histories of literary and learned culture, censorship and "freedom of the press," and literacy and orality. Contributors: Hugh Amory Ross W.

Book Synopsis A History of the Book in America: Volume 1, The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World by : Hugh Amory
Download or read book A History of the Book in America: Volume 1, The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World written by Hugh Amory and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 1 of A History of the Book in America, The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World, encompasses the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It is organized around three major themes: the persisting colonial relationship between European settlements and the Old World; the gradual emergence of a pluralistic book trade that differentiated printers from booksellers; and the transition from a 'culture of the Word', organized around an understanding of print as a vehicle of the sacred, to the culture of republicanism, epitomized by Benjamin Franklin, and culminating in the uses of print during the Revolutionary era. The volume will also describe nascent forms of literary and learned culture (including the circulation of manuscripts), literacy and censorship, orality, and the efforts by Europeans to introduce written literary to Native Americans and African Americans.
Download or read book Keeping Faith written by Jeffrey M. Burns and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-09-01 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic Church in the United States has always been an immigrant church, from the earliest arrivals of the Spanish and English, to the influx of Irish, Germans, Italians, and other Europeans in the nineteenth century, to the most recent arrivals from the Philippines and Vietnam. Over two centuries countless laymen and laywomen worked with priests and religious to build and support churches and schools, laying the foundation for the Catholic Church in the United States. The wealth of original documents and photographs in Keeping Faith provides as no other source does a thorough and compelling portrait of these immigrants and their impact on the American Catholic institutions and American Catholic experience.

Book Synopsis Foreigners in Their Own Land by : Steven M. Nolt
Download or read book Foreigners in Their Own Land written by Steven M. Nolt and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians of the early Republic are just beginning to tell the stories of the period&’s ethnic minorities. In Foreigners in Their Own Land, Steven M. Nolt is the first to add the story of the Pennsylvania Germans to that larger mosaic, showing how they came to think of themselves as quintessential Americans and simultaneously constructed a durable sense of ethnicity. The Lutheran and Reformed Pennsylvania German populations of eastern Pennsylvania, Maryland, and the Appalachian backcountry successfully combined elements of their Old World tradition with several emerging versions of national identity. Many took up democratic populist rhetoric to defend local cultural particularity and ethnic separatism. Others wedded certain American notions of reform and national purpose to Continental traditions of clerical authority and idealized German virtues. Their experience illustrates how creating and defending an ethnic identity can itself be a way of becoming American. Though they would maintain a remarkably stable and identifiable subculture well into the twentieth century, Pennsylvania Germans were, even by the eve of the Civil War, the most &"inside&" of &"outsiders.&" They represent the complex and often paradoxical ways in which many Americans have managed the process of assimilation to their own advantage. Given their pioneering role in that process, their story illuminates the path that other immigrants and ethnic Americans would travel in the decades to follow.

Book Synopsis Enlightening the Next Generation by : F. Michael Perko
Download or read book Enlightening the Next Generation written by F. Michael Perko and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1988, this title looks at the importance of the Catholic school in American education from 1830 to 1980. The articles in this collection illuminate the patterns of development. The most prevalent theme is that of school controversy, involving either Catholic conflict with public education and the wider culture on the one hand, or internal dissension within the Catholic community regarding the desirability of separate schools on the other. Taken together, these essays serve as pieces of a mosaic, interesting in themselves yet corporately providing a comprehensive picture of the history of Catholic schooling in America. They remind us that these institutions grew up as a response to particular forces at work in the wider society as well as within the Catholic community itself.
Book Synopsis The Story of Jazz by : Marshall W. Stearns

This superlative history is the first and the most renowned systematic outline of the evolution of this unique American musical phenomenon. Stearns begins with the joining of the African Negro's musical heritage with European forms and the birth of jazz in New Orleans then follows its course through the era of swing and bop to the beginnings of rock in the 50s, vividly depicting the great innovators, and covering such technical elements as the music's form and structure.
Book Synopsis The Building of an American Catholic Church by : Joseph Agonito
Download or read book The Building of an American Catholic Church written by Joseph Agonito and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1988. The new-found freedom and changing attitudes towards Catholics after the American Revolution presented the Catholic Church with its first real opportunity to prosper in the English speaking "new world". But the Catholic Church could not take advantage of this opportunity unless it shook off some of its "old world" characteristics and became accustomed to the American environment. This study attempts to analyse the very nature of American Catholicism by investigating the impact of the American environment on the development of the Catholic Church in American during the episcopacy of John Carroll. This title will be of interest to students of history and religious studies.
