Book Synopsis Overviews from the New Jersey Churchscape by : Frank Greenagel
Download or read book Overviews from the New Jersey Churchscape written by Frank Greenagel and published by . This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The six chapters of this brief work are slightly-edited reprints of the Overview chapters from my books on the religious architecture of the state. Only a few readers will see more than one of those books (now 13 in all) yet there is good stuff in them and I am loath to see all of it disappear without a trace. Moreover, the overviews offer a quick means of getting a sense of the churchscape of a county-how many of the old buildings survive, the distribution among denominations, a sense of the major social and cultural factors (immigration, urbanization, wealth accumulation) that shaped the plan, location and style of the buildings. Although I have been working at this project for about 15 years, all of these chapters are from recently published works and represent my current thinking. The counties included (Burlington, Cumberland, Essex, Hudson, Morris and Warren) represent 565 of the estimated 1,500 remaining churches, meetinghouses and synagogues in the state. Five of the chapters are taken from books in print; I have not completed the Hudson work so that section may seem a bit disjointed; I have included it because Hudson represents a distinctive development that is not repeated elsewhere. The Overview is the last part of each book completed, excepting only the Index, and to some extent represents a summation of the most salient aspects of the county's ecclesiastical architecture.

Download or read book The New Jersey Churchscape written by Frank L. Greenagel and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although best known as the Garden State, New Jersey could also be called the Church State. The state boasts thousands of houses of worship, with more than one thousand still standing that were built in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Frank L. Greenagel has photographed more than six hundred. He has selected two hundred of these historic landmarks for an examination of why they are sited where they are and why they look the way they do. Greenagel has sought out and included images of not only mainstream Christian churches, but also Jewish synagogues as well as the places of worship of religious groups such as the Moravians, the Church of the Brethren, and the Seventh Day Baptists. The photographs are arranged chronologically within sections on three major early settlement regions of the state ¾ the Hudson River, the Delaware River, and the Raritan Valley. For each building, Greenagel details the date of construction, the cultural, historic, and religious influences that shaped it, the architectural details that distinguish it, and what purpose it currently serves.

Book Synopsis The Warren Churchscape by : Frank L. Greenagel
Download or read book The Warren Churchscape written by Frank L. Greenagel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Warren Churchscape (in a new revised edition) is a richly illustrated guide to all seventy of the 18th and 19th century churches and meetinghouses still standing in Warren County. Frank Greenagel, author of The New Jersey Churchscape and 12 other volumes on the old churches of New Jersey, and developer of the widely popular website, www.njchurchscape.com, explores and explains the history of Warren's religious buildings, from the earliest religious structure-a beautifully-restored stone Quaker meetinghouse on Scott's Mountain erected in 1753, to the stylish Episcopal church-St. Mary's-on the green in Belvidere. The subtitle of the book, Religious Architecture in 18th & 19th Century, suggests that the book goes well beyond an inventory of the old churches of the county; in fact, it might serve well as a basic reference on architectural styles and construction traditions during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In order to preserve the unique story of the structures, some in danger of being lost to history, Greenagel spent more than eight years in fieldwork and research, logging countless hours on the road, in the library and in the darkroom. This definitive volume will allow readers to look anew at the religious buildings of Warren, providing information for curious congregation members and historians alike. The book includes an outline of architectural styles, a brief account of the religious denominations operating in the state during the early centuries, a glossary of architectural terms, an extensive bibliography, and index. A separate section on 13 of the old churches of Easton and Riegelsville that served early Warren residents is appended, along with a fascinating account of the early 19th century Thatcher church which lies in ruins near Broadway.
