Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bi-Centennial Anniversary of the Friends Meeting House at Merion, Pennsylvania The subject of holding memorial exercises at the Friends' Meeting House, at Merion, Pennsylvania, to commemorate its erection in 1695, - two hundred years ago, - was brought before Radnor Monthly Meeting of Friends, Fourth month 11th, 1895, wherein it was duly considered and approved. A committee was appointed to make the necessary arrangements for the occasion, with authority to add to their numbers. With the desire that both bodies of Friends should be represented in the work, an invitation was extended to members of the other branch, and the preparation of one of the papers and a poem assigned to them. The celebration was held on Seventh-day, Tenth month 5th, 1895, which proved to be a beautiful autumn day, and was enjoyed by the many friends assembled. The people began to gather several hours before the time appointed for the exercises, to take advantage of the opportunity of inspecting the meetinghouse and the many points of interest associated with the place. A large tent was erected upon the grounds to accommodate those attending the exercises. At the hour announced, 1.30 p.m., an audience of one thousand or more persons had met therein. Shortly after this hour, the Chairman, Robert M. Janney, called the meeting to order, and requested the observance of a period of silence, during which prayer was offered by Rufus M. Jones, which met with response in the hearts of those present. The programme as arranged by the committee was soon after entered upon, being introduced by an address from the Chairman, which follows, with the other papers presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of a uniquely Quaker style in architecture, dress, and domestic interiors is a subject with which scholars have long grappled, since Quakers have traditionally held both an appreciation for high-quality workmanship and a distrust of ostentation. Early Quakers, or members of the Society of Friends, who held "plainness" or "simplicity" as a virtue, were also active consumers of fine material goods. Through an examination of some of the material possessions of Quaker families in America during the eighteenth, nineteenth, and early twentieth centuries, the contributors to Quaker Aesthetics draw on the methods of art, social, religious, and public historians as well as folklorists to explore how Friends during this period reconciled their material lives with their belief in the value of simplicity. In early America, Quakers dominated the political and social landscape of the Delaware Valley, and, because this region held a position of political and economic strength, the Quakers were tightly connected to the transatlantic economy. Given this vantage, they had easy access to the latest trends in fashion and business. Detailing how Quakers have manufactured, bought, and used such goods as clothing, furniture, and buildings, the essays in Quaker Aesthetics reveal a much more complicated picture than that of a simple people with simple tastes. Instead, the authors show how, despite the high quality of their material lives, the Quakers in the past worked toward the spiritual simplicity they still cherish.

Book excerpt: Pennsylvania's role in the development of American culture and society has received an increasing amount of attention in the past two decades, as the tercentenary celebrations of the founding of the province led to a reexamination of the colony and state's contributions to the ethnic and religious diversity of modern America. With increasing pluralism, however, the religious group that was most prominent in the establishment of the province - the Society of Friends, or Quakers - declined in its impact and importance.
