Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of Christianity: Volume 7, Enlightenment, Reawakening and Revolution 1660-1815 by : Stewart J. Brown
Download or read book The Cambridge History of Christianity: Volume 7, Enlightenment, Reawakening and Revolution 1660-1815 written by Stewart J. Brown and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-12-07 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge History of Christianity offers a comprehensive chronological account of the development of Christianity in all its aspects - theological, intellectual, social, political, regional, global - from its beginnings to the present day. Each volume makes a substantial contribution in its own right to the scholarship of its period and the complete History constitutes a major work of academic reference. Far from being merely a history of Western European Christianity and its offshoots, the History aims to provide a global perspective. Eastern and Coptic Christianity are given full consideration from the early period onwards, and later, African, Far Eastern, New World, South Asian and other non-European developments in Christianity receive proper coverage. The volumes cover popular piety and non-formal expressions of Christian faith and treat the sociology of Christian formation, worship and devotion in a broad cultural context. The question of relations between Christianity and other major faiths is also kept in sight throughout. The History will provide an invaluable resource for scholars and students alike. How did Christianity fare during the tumultuous period in world history from 1660 to 1815? This volume examines issues of church, state, society and Christian life, in Europe and in the wider world. It explores the intellectual and political movements that challenged Christianity: from the rise of science and the Enlightenment to the French Revolution with its state-supported programme of de-Christianisation. It also considers the movements of Christian renewal and reawakening during this period, and Christianity's encounters with world religions in colonial and missionary settings. Book jacket.

Book Synopsis Naval Occurrences of the War of 1812 by : William James
Download or read book Naval Occurrences of the War of 1812 written by William James and published by Conway. This book was released on 2004 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William James, a lawyer-turned-historian, was not convinced by the American accounts. He applied himself to assembling the facts and proved that, despite the 'powder puff' history of American writers, 'no American ship of war has, after all, captured a British ship of war, of the same force; but the reverse has occurred, and might have occurred again, and again, - had Americans been as willing to fight, as they still are to boast'.
Book Synopsis Evangelizing the South by : Monica Najar
Download or read book Evangelizing the South written by Monica Najar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-22 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many refer to the American South as the "Bible Belt", the region was not always characterized by a powerful religious culture. In the seventeenth century and early eighteenth century, religion-in terms both of church membership and personal piety-was virtually absent from southern culture. The late eighteenth century and early nineteenth century, however, witnessed the astonishingly rapid rise of evangelical religion in the Upper South. Within just a few years, evangelicals had spread their beliefs and their fervor, gaining converts and building churches throughout Virginia and North Carolina and into the western regions. But what was it that made evangelicalism so attractive to a region previously uninterested in religion? Monica Najar argues that early evangelicals successfully negotiated the various challenges of the eighteenth-century landscape by creating churches that functioned as civil as well as religious bodies. The evangelical church of the late eighteenth century was the cornerstone of its community, regulating marriages, monitoring prices, arbitrating business, and settling disputes. As the era experienced substantial rifts in the relationship between church and state, the disestablishment of colonial churches paved the way for new formulations of church-state relations. The evangelical churches were well-positioned to provide guidance in uncertain times, and their multiple functions allowed them to reshape many of the central elements of authority in southern society. They assisted in reformulating the lines between the "religious" and "secular" realms, with significant consequences for both religion and the emerging nation-state. Touching on the creation of a distinctive southern culture, the position of women in the private and public arenas, family life in the Old South, the relationship between religion and slavery, and the political culture of the early republic, Najar reveals the history behind a religious heritage that remains a distinguishing mark of American society.

Book Synopsis Jesuits in the North American Colonies and the United States by : Catherine O'Donnell
Download or read book Jesuits in the North American Colonies and the United States written by Catherine O'Donnell and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Eusebio Kino to Daniel Berrigan, and from colonial New England to contemporary Seattle, Jesuits have built and disrupted institutions in ways that have fundamentally shaped the Catholic Church and American society. As Catherine O’Donnell demonstrates, Jesuits in French, Spanish, and British colonies were both evangelists and agents of empire. John Carroll envisioned an American church integrated with Protestant neighbors during the early years of the republic; nineteenth-century Jesuits, many of them immigrants, rejected Carroll’s ethos and created a distinct Catholic infrastructure of schools, colleges, and allegiances. The twentieth century involved Jesuits first in American war efforts and papal critiques of modernity, and then (in accord with the leadership of John Courtney Murray and Pedro Arrupe) in a rethinking of their relationship to modernity, to other faiths, and to earthly injustice. O’Donnell’s narrative concludes with a brief discussion of Jesuits’ declining numbers, as well as their response to their slaveholding past and involvement in clerical sexual abuse.
Book Synopsis The Building of Christendom by : Warren Hasty Carroll
Download or read book The Building of Christendom written by Warren Hasty Carroll and published by Christendom Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second of a projected six volumes, this carries the story of the building of a Christian civilization in Europe from the conversion of Roman Emperor Constantine in the fourth century to the end of the First Crusade. Christ and His Church remain at the center of the story and the key to judging the significance and character of the events described. However, this is more than a history of the Church; it is a political and religious history of Christendom as shaped by the Church - by lay men and women as well as Popes, bishops, priests, monks and nuns - during eight dramatic centuries when Rome fell, Muslims and barbarians attacked Christian Europe, and a new civilization was born.
Book Synopsis Christianity Through the Ages by : Kenneth Scott Latourette
Download or read book Christianity Through the Ages written by Kenneth Scott Latourette and published by Harper San Francisco. This book was released on 1965 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an attempt to tell in brief compass the history of Christianity. Christianity is usually called a religion. As a religion it has had a wider geographic spread and is more deeply rooted among more peoples than any other religion in the history of mankind. Both that spread and that rootage have been mounting in the past 150 years and especially in the present century. The history of Christianity, therefore, must be of concern to all who are interested in the record of man and particularly to all who seek to understand the contemporary human scene. - Preface.

Book Synopsis The Crisis of Christendom by : Warren Hasty Carroll
Download or read book The Crisis of Christendom written by Warren Hasty Carroll and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This final volume on the history of Christendom is concerned with the crises of the modern era, the turning points in the diseases which plagued humanity during these two centuries. The book discusses in detail Nazi and Japanese militarism and its crisis in World War II, the damage caused by the inhuman system of communism and its fall in 1989, and the origins and consequences of the denial of the dignity of the human person in the modern culture of death. As did earlier volumes in this series, the book reflects an unabashedly Christian and Catholic view of history, taking as one of its major themes the centrality of the papacy to the destiny of the West. Carroll holds that God and individual men and women, not impersonal social and economic forces, make history.--
Book Synopsis The Military Enlightenment by : Christy L. Pichichero
Download or read book The Military Enlightenment written by Christy L. Pichichero and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Military Enlightenment brings to light a radically new narrative both on the Enlightenment and the French armed forces from Louis XIV to Napoleon. Christy Pichichero makes a striking discovery: the Geneva Conventions, post-traumatic stress disorder, the military "band of brothers," and soldierly heroism all found their antecedents in the eighteenth-century French armed forces. Readers of The Military Enlightenment will be startled to learn of the many ways in which French military officers, administrators, and medical personnel advanced ideas of human and political rights, military psychology, and social justice.
