The struggle for orthodoxy: Religion, revivals, and Anglo-American relations in the British northern colonies

Abstract

dc:description

"This work traces the theological origins and developments of dissenters from the Church of England who settled in the British northern colonies. The views of New England dissenters are examined as well as those of dissenters in the proprietary colonies which included groups such as the Quakers and Pietists. The implicit affinity for emotionalism among these dissenters is highlighted, even though many of them would have been quick to condemn anything perceived as extreme emotionalism or ""enthusiasm."""
