Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores literary Puritanism, a brand of religious extremism that prizes deception for the 'glory of God' and manifests in politics as well as religion. The author, an accomplished critic, argues that literary Puritanism in America has a dark history, most notably in the abolitionist movement, where proponents of this mindset wielded lies and fabrications to attack those who opposed their agenda. The author focuses on several key figures to illustrate this point, including Garrison and Harriet Beecher Stowe. The author also places literary Puritanism within a broader historical context, tracing its roots back to the Puritans of the 17th century and highlighting its enduring influence on modern American society. This book will be of interest to anyone studying the history of ideas in America, as well as to those interested in the intersection of religion and politics.
