Synopsis

The Religious History of New England: King's Chapel Lectures (1917) by John Winthrop Platner is a comprehensive study of the religious history of New England. The book is based on the King's Chapel Lectures that Platner delivered in Boston in 1917. The lectures explore the religious beliefs and practices of the early settlers of New England, including the Puritans, Quakers, and Baptists. Platner examines the role of religion in the founding and development of New England, and how it shaped the region's culture and society. He also discusses the impact of religious dissent and conflict on the region, including the Salem Witch Trials and the Great Awakening. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion in America, and provides a detailed and nuanced perspective on the religious diversity of New England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Lowell Institute inK ings Chapel, Boston, in the winters of 1914-15 and 1915-16. The Committee in charge of the lectures consisted of representatives of the Harvard Divinity School and the affiliated schools, Andover Theological Seminary, and theE piscopal Theological School, Cambridge. One deficiency the Committee sincerely regret. It appeared impossible to secure either for the lectures or for the book an historical narrative from a member of the Roman Catholic communion. The Committee feel that the book ought not to be issued without at least some word recognizing the contribution which that Church has made to the ReU gious History of New England.
