Book Walking in the Way of Peace

  • Author : Meredith Baldwin Weddle
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2001-05-03
  • ISBN : 0198030096
  • Pages : 365 pages

Download or read book Walking in the Way of Peace written by Meredith Baldwin Weddle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2001-05-03 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the historical context, meaning, and expression of early Quaker pacifism in England and its colonies. Weddle focuses primarily on one historical moment--King Philip's War, which broke out in 1675 between English settlers and Indians in New England. Among the settlers were Quakers, adherents of the movement that had gathered by 1652 out of the religious and social turmoil of the English Civil War. King Philip's War confronted the New England Quakers with the practical need to define the parameters of their peace testimony --to test their principles and to choose how they would respond to violence. The Quaker governors of Rhode Island, for example, had to reconcile their beliefs with the need to provide for the common defense. Others had to reconcile their peace principles with such concerns as seeking refuge in garrisons, collecting taxes for war, carrying guns for self-defense as they worked in the fields, and serving in the militia. Indeed, Weddle has uncovered records of many Quakers engaged in or abetting acts of violence, thus debunking the traditional historiography of Quakers as saintly pacifists. Weddle shows that Quaker pacifism existed as a doctrinal position before the 1660 crackdown on religious sectarians, but that it was a radical theological position rather than a pragmatic strategy. She thus convincingly refutes the Marxist argument that Quakers acted from economic and political, and not religious motives. She examines in detail how the Quakers' theology worked--how, for example, their interpretation of certain biblical passages affected their politics--and traces the evolution of the concept of pacifism from a doctrine that was essentially about protecting the state of one's own soul to one concerned with the consequences of violence to other human beings.

Book Encounters of the Spirit

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard W. Pointer
  • Publisher : Indiana University Press
  • Release : 2007-09-28
  • ISBN : 0253116899
  • Pages : 309 pages

Download or read book Encounters of the Spirit written by Richard W. Pointer and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-28 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians have long been aware that the encounter with Europeans affected all aspects of Native American life. But were Indians the only ones changed by these cross-cultural meetings? Might the newcomers' ways, including their religious beliefs and practices, have also been altered amid their myriad contacts with native peoples? In Encounters of the Spirit, Richard W. Pointer takes up these intriguing questions in an innovative study of the religious encounter between Indians and Euro-Americans in early America. Exploring a series of episodes across the three centuries of the colonial era and stretching from New Spain to New France and the English settlements, he finds that the flow of cultural influence was more often reciprocal than unidirectional.

Book Inventing Disaster

    Book Details:
  • Author : Cynthia A. Kierner
  • Publisher : UNC Press Books
  • Release : 2019-09-06
  • ISBN : 1469652528
  • Pages : 302 pages

Download or read book Inventing Disaster written by Cynthia A. Kierner and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires, and other disasters strike, we count our losses, search for causes, commiserate with victims, and initiate relief efforts. Amply illustrated and expansively researched, Inventing Disaster explains the origins and development of this predictable, even ritualized, culture of calamity over three centuries, exploring its roots in the revolutions in science, information, and emotion that were part of the Age of Enlightenment in Europe and America. Beginning with the collapse of the early seventeenth-century Jamestown colony, ending with the deadly Johnstown flood of 1889, and highlighting fires, epidemics, earthquakes, and exploding steamboats along the way, Cynthia A. Kierner tells horrific stories of culturally significant calamities and their victims and charts efforts to explain, prevent, and relieve disaster-related losses. Although how we interpret and respond to disasters has changed in some ways since the nineteenth century, Kierner demonstrates that, for better or worse, the intellectual, economic, and political environments of earlier eras forged our own twenty-first-century approach to disaster, shaping the stories we tell, the precautions we ponder, and the remedies we prescribe for disaster-ravaged communities.

  • Pages : 185 pages

Download or read book Black Drink written by Charles M. Hudson and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until its use declined in the nineteenth century, Indians of the southeastern United States were devoted to a caffeinated beverage commonly known as black drink. Brewed from the parched leaves of the yaupon holly (Ilex vomitoria), black drink was used socially and ceremonially. In certain ritual purification rites, Indians would regurgitate after drinking the tea. This study details botanical, clinical, spiritual, historical, and material aspects of black drink, including its importance not only to Native Americans, but also to many of their European-American contemporaries.
