Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the formative period of Rhode Island, focusing on the themes of separatism and collectivism. The author argues that during the 17th and 19th centuries, separatism was a defining characteristic of Rhode Island, shaping its geography, government, and society. The book begins by describing the region's physical features and its early exploration by Verrazano and Block. It then traces the founding of Providence and Warwick by Roger Williams, a proponent of religious freedom, and the clash between Williams's ideals and the dominant Puritan culture of Massachusetts. The author also explores the founding of Portsmouth and Newport by Anne Hutchinson and Samuel Gorton, other religious dissenters who sought refuge in Rhode Island. The book highlights the tension between the individualistic tendencies of Providence and the more collectivist tendencies of Aquidneck, and the eventual triumph of collectivism with the adoption of the Roger Williams patent in 1644. The book also discusses the struggle against collectivism by religious sects such as the Anabaptists and Quakers, and the ultimate decline of separatism in Rhode Island. Ultimately, the book offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between individualism and collectivism in the development of American society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
