Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'Up From Methodism' is a compelling autobiographical critique by Herbert Asbury, the acclaimed chronicler of the American underworld. In this insightful volume, Asbury recounts his upbringing in a devoutly religious community in the American Midwest, offering a sharp-witted and often iconoclastic examination of the Methodist faith and its pervasive cultural impact on small-town life during the turn of the century. Through personal narratives and keen social observation, Asbury explores the themes of religious revivalism, moral rigidity, and the struggle for intellectual freedom against a backdrop of traditionalist values. Written during a period of significant cultural transition in the United States, the work reflects the 1920s spirit of skepticism and the intellectual movement away from the puritanical influences of the 19th century.Asbury's prose captures the complexities of faith and identity, making 'Up From Methodism' an important literary contribution to the study of American religion and social history. It serves as both a personal liberation story and a broader critique of the institutional structures that governed rural American society. This work remains a classic example of the early 20th-century memoir, blending journalistic detail with profound social commentary.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
