Book Synopsis Varieties of Southern Religious Experiences by : Samuel S. Hill
Download or read book Varieties of Southern Religious Experiences written by Samuel S. Hill and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past twenty years there has been a dramatic increase in the number, scope, and quality of studies of religion in the American South. This new work has been inspired and furthered by a growing acknowledgment of the importance of religious studies in general, by the conviction that religion has always been basic to popular discourse in the South, and by an awareness of the bearing of religion on the political, economic, and social spheres of life. The authors represented in this collection are professors of religion, sociology, and his-tory, and are all part of a new wave of scholars with fresh orientations toward the study of southern religion. The essays cover a wide variety of subjects, ranging chronologically from John Boles's work on white-black relations in antebellum biracial churches to William Martin's treatment of what he calls the electronic church of the 1980s - the television-audience congregations who follow evangelists such as Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson. The book encompasses a wide range of points of view, socioeconomic classes, and denominations. In addition to C. Eric Lincoln's essay on the history of the black church in America, there are J. Wayne Flynt's on the social gospel among southern Protestants from 1890 to 1920, David Edwin Harrell's on plain-folk religion in the South from 1835 to 1920, Randall M. Miller's on southern Catholicism, and Ralph E. Luker's on the ideas of the Episcopal theologian William Porcher DuBose. Wade Clark Roof shows how the unchurched in both the South and the rest of the nation reflect the general modernizing process, and Richard L. Rubenstein treats the relationship between slavery and the Holocaust in William Styron's Sophie's Choice. Clarence C. Gen writes on the sectional splits in the major denominations prior to the Civil War, and in his introduction and conclusion to the collection Samuel S. Hill places these ten essays clearly in the context of our current understanding of southern religion and suggests the ways in which this work breaks new ground and points to important new interpretations. These essays reflect the central assumption that there has been a distinct South for a long time, and they also reveal and examine the genuine diversity of that region's religious his-tory. The book is effective and engaging in its treatment of southern religion as an identifiable cultural entity, as well as in its evocation of the rich diversity of the parts of that entity.

Book Synopsis Still Fighting the Civil War by : David Goldfield
Download or read book Still Fighting the Civil War written by David Goldfield and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newcomers to the South often remark that southerners, at least white southerners, are still fighting the Civil War -- a strange preoccupation considering that the war formally ended more than one hundred and thirty-five years ago and fewer than a third of southerners today can claim an ancestor who actually fought in the conflict. But even if the war is far removed both in time and genealogy, it survives in the hearts of many of the region's residents and often in national newspaper headlines concerning battle flags, racial justice, and religious conflicts. In this sweeping narrative of the South from the Civil War to the present, noted historian David Goldfield contemplates the roots of southern memory and explains how this memory has shaped the modern South both for good and ill. He candidly discusses how and why white southern men fashioned the myths of the Lost Cause and the Redemption out of the Civil War and Reconstruction and how they shaped a religion to canonize the heroes and reify the events of those fated years. Goldfield also recounts how blacks and white women eventually crafted a different, more inclusive version of southern history and how that new vision has competed with more traditional perspectives. As Goldfield shows, the battle for southern history, and for the South, continues -- in museums, public spaces, books, state legislatures, and the minds of southerners. Given the region's growing economic power and political influence, the outcome of this war is more than a historian's preoccupation; it is of national importance. Integrating history and memory, religion, race, and gender, Still Fighting the Civil War will help newcomers, longtime residents, and curious outsiders alike attain a better understanding of the South and each other.

Book Synopsis Pentecostal and Holiness Statements on War and Peace by : Jay Beaman
Download or read book Pentecostal and Holiness Statements on War and Peace written by Jay Beaman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-08-30 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Pentecostal groups have forgotten their legacy of war resistance and doctrinal history opposing killing. To rectify this loss, we have catalogued Holiness and Pentecostal denominational statements on war and peace. Numerous Holiness groups and virtually all early Pentecostal groups had some form of pacifist statement against war. This antiwar collection gives us an almost uniform picture of the early Pentecostal movement as largely pacifist in orientation. The commonality of these statements across both Holiness and Pentecostal movements is evidence they are a continuous group and not two separate movements. While their early doctrines opposed killing, many named in this book are now widely considered to be stalwarts of the Religious Right, or at least staunch supporters of Christian participation in war. Our hope is that this book will frame the official position of early Pentecostals on war and peace, and encourage Pentecostals today to reflect on their antiwar heritage.
Book Synopsis Pentecostal Pacifism by : Jay Beaman
Download or read book Pentecostal Pacifism written by Jay Beaman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when the Evangelical wing of the church is beginning to show some signs of soul searching over the issues of war and peace, the Pentecostals would do well to study their own heritage. Whether they accept or reject their earlier world view, they need to interpret the motivation for their original beliefs and those which they now hold. As people of the word of God, have Pentecostals altered their pacifistic views as a result of new biblical insights or cultural accommodation? -- From the Introduction
Book Synopsis Global Pentecostal Movements by : Michael Wilkinson
Download or read book Global Pentecostal Movements written by Michael Wilkinson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-09-19 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contributes to the growing body of literature on religion and globalization and specifically global Pentecostal movements. While Pentecostalism worldwide shares a cultural resemblance, it is also localized and expressed in different ways. The variety of Pentecostalisms throughout the world are illustrated through important themes of mission, migration, and public religion. The global flows of Pentecostal practices, beliefs, and cultures, brings into contrast these variations. Negotiating what it means to be Pentecostal often leads to conflict and questions of identity. Interaction with other religions like Islam in Africa, mission work in Asia, and migration to Europe and North America is problematized. Regional coverage includes Africa, Asia, Latin America, Europe, and North America. Contributors include: Thomas Aechtner, Connie Ho Yan Au, Joseph Bosco Bangura, Richard Burgess, Girish Daswani, David A. Reed, Otto Madura, Néstor Medina, A. Christian van Gorder, Michael Wilkinson, and Seth N. Zielicke.
