Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ambitious new history of the Pilgrims and Plymouth Colony, published for the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s landing In 1620, separatists from the Church of England set sail across the Atlantic aboard the Mayflower. Understanding themselves as spiritual pilgrims, they left to preserve their liberty to worship God in accordance with their understanding of the Bible. There exists, however, an alternative, more dispiriting version of their story. In it, the Pilgrims are religious zealots who persecuted dissenters and decimated the Native peoples through warfare and by stealing their land. The Pilgrims’ definition of liberty was, in practice, very narrow. Drawing on original research using underutilized sources, John G. Turner moves beyond these familiar narratives in his sweeping and authoritative new history of Plymouth Colony. Instead of depicting the Pilgrims as otherworldly saints or extraordinary sinners, he tells how a variety of English settlers and Native peoples engaged in a contest for the meaning of American liberty.

Download or read book Pilgrims in Their Own Land written by Martin E. Marty and published by Penguin Books. This book was released on 1985-08-06 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pilgrims in Their Own Land is Martin E. Marty's vivid chronological account of the people and events that carved the spiritual landscape of America. It is in one sense a study of migration, with each wave of immigrants bringing a set of religious beliefs to a new world. The narrative unfolds through sharply detailed biographical vignettes—stories of religious "pathfinders," including William Penn, Mary Baker Eddy, Henry David Thoreau, and many other leaders of movements, both marginal and mainstream. In addition, Marty considers the impact of religion on social issues such as racism, feminism, and utopianism. And engrossing, highly readable, and comprehensive history, Pilgrims in Their Own Land is written with respect, appreciation, and insight into the multitude of religious groups that represent expressions of spirituality in America.

Download or read book Miracles in Enlightenment England written by Jane Shaw and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Enlightenment, considered an age of rationalism, is not normally associated with miracles. In this intriguing book, however, Jane Shaw presents accounts of inscrutable miracles that occurred to ordinary worshippers in early modern England. She considers the reactions of intellectuals, scientists, and physicians to these miraculous events and through them explores the relations between popular and elite culture of the time. Miraculous events in England between the 1650s and the 1750s were experienced mainly not by Catholics, but by Protestants. The book looks at the political and social context of these events as well as interpretations and explanations of them by scientists, the Court, and the Church, as well as by preachers, pamphleteers, friends, and neighbors. Shaw links the lived religion of the time to intellectual history and amends the hitherto received view. The religious practice of ordinary people was as crucial to the development of Enlightenment thought as the philosophical and theological writings of the elite.

Download or read book The Age of Illumination written by Scott Rank and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Middle Ages are widely considered to be a thousand-year period of superstition, ignorance, and belief in a flat earth, punctuated by witch burnings and violent crusades to the Middle East. But the medieval period, more than any other time in history, laid the foundations for the modern world. The work of scholars, architects, statesmen and craftsmen led to rise of towns, the earliest bureaucratic states, the culmination of Romanesque and the beginnings of Gothic art, the recovery of Greek science and philosophy, and the beginnings of the first universities.This book is a chronological and thematic exploration of the history of the Middle Ages, starting with the Roman Empire's collapse in the fifth century and marches through Charlemagne's reign, the breakup of his empire, the Black Plague, the fall of Constantinople, and everything in between. It explores social aspects of the Middle Ages that are still largely misunderstood (for example, no educated person believed the earth was flat). There was also a surprisingly high level of medieval technology--mechanical clocks, horse stirrups, and even primitive human flight emerges at this time. Most surprisingly, there was a lack of witch burnings, which were not popularized until the Thirty Years War in the Renaissance Period.The Middle Ages were not a time to suffer through until the Renaissance returned Europe to a path of intellectual and cultural ascendance. Rather, they illuminated the darkness following the collapse of Rome and guided the path to the world we inhabit today.

Download or read book The Landing of the Pilgrims written by James Daugherty and published by Random House Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 1981-02-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how and why the Pilgrims left England to come to America! In England in the early 1600s, everyone was forced to join the Church of England. Young William Bradford and his friends believed they had every right to belong to whichever church they wanted. In the name of religious freedom, they fled to Holland, then sailed to America to start a new life. But the winter was harsh, and before a year passed, half the settlers had died. Yet, through hard work and strong faith, a tough group of Pilgrims did survive. Their belief in freedom of religion became an American ideal that still lives on today. James Daugherty draws on the Pilgrims' own journals to give a fresh and moving account of their life and traditions, their quest for religious freedom, and the founding of one of our nation's most beloved holidays; Thanksgiving.

Download or read book The Religion-Supported State written by Nathan S. Rives and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1776 and 1850, the people, politicians, and clergy of New England transformed the relationship between church and state. They did not simply replace their religious establishments with voluntary churches and organizations. Instead, as they collided over disestablishment, Sunday laws, and antislavery, they built the foundation of what the author describes as a religion-supported state. Religious tolerance and pluralism coexisted in the religion-supported state with religious anxiety and controversy. Questions of religious liberty were shaped by public debates among evangelicals, Unitarians, Universalists, deists, and others about the moral implications of religious truth and error. The author traces the shifting, situational political alliances they constructed to protect the moral core of their competing truths. New England's religion-supported state still resonates in the United States in the twenty-first century.
