Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life, Times, and Correspondence of James Manning: And the Early History of Brown University At the annual meeting of the Corporation of Brown University, held in September, 1844, a resolution was unanimously passed requesting Professor Gammell to prepare "an adequate history of the origin and progress of the University." Want of sufficient material was without doubt the reason why the facile pen of the Professor of Rhetoric and History was not employed on this important and much needed work. Three years later the author, immediately on graduating, entered upon his long professional career in connection with the Library. At first he was an assistant under the late Professor Charles C. Jewett. In March, 1848, he succeeded him in the Librarianship of the University. One of his earliest efforts as Librarian was to complete a file of the annual catalogues. Afterwards, by means of circulars and otherwise, he made a collection of pamphlets, manuscripts and documents illustrative of the history of the College. As a result he published, in 1864, a large duodecimo volume of five hundred and twenty-three pages, entitled, "Life, Times and Correspondence of James Manning and the Early History of Brown University"; and three years later a handsome quarto volume entitled, "History of Brown University, with Illustrative Documents." These works have long been out of print, the number of copies of the latter having been limited to three hundred and ten, and the stereotype plates of the former having been destroyed in the breaking up of the long established house of Gould and Lincoln, of Boston.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assortment of political views held by Baptists was as diverse as any other denomination in the early United States, but they were bound together by a fundamental belief in the inviolability of the individual conscience in matters of faith. In a nation where civil government and religion were inextricable, and in states where citizens were still born into the local parish church, the doctrine of believer’s baptism was an inescapably political idea. As a result, historians have long acknowledged that Baptists in the early republic were driven by their pursuit of religious liberty, even partnering with those who did not share their beliefs. However, what has not been as well documented is the complexity and conflict with which Baptists carried out their Jeffersonian project. Just as they disagreed on seemingly everything else, Baptists did not always define religious liberty in quite the same way. Let Men Be Free offers the first comprehensive look into Baptist politics in the early United States, examining how different groups and different generations attempted to separate church from state and how this determined the future of the denomination and indeed the nation itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explorations of the English Baptist reception of the Evangelical Revival often--and rightfully--focus on the work of the Spirit, prayer, Bible study, preaching, and mission, while other key means are often overlooked. Useful Learning examines the period from c. 1689 to c. 1825, and combines history in the form of the stories of Baptist pastors, their churches, and various societies, and theology as found in sermons, pamphlets, personal confessions of faith, constitutions, covenants, and theological treatises. In the process, it identifies four equally important means of grace. The first was the theological renewal that saw moderate Calvinism answer "The Modern Question," develop into evangelical Calvinism, and revive the denomination. Second were close groups of ministers whose friendship, mutual support, and close theological collaboration culminated in the formation of the Baptist Missionary Society, and local itinerant mission work across much of Britain. Third was their commitment to reviving stagnating Associations, or founding new ones, convinced of the vital importance of the corporate Christian life and witness for the support and strengthening of the local churches, and furthering the spread of the gospel to all people. Finally was the conviction of the churches and their pastors that those with gifts for preaching and ministry should be theologically educated. At first local ministers taught students in their homes, and then at the Bristol Academy. In the early nineteenth century, a further three Baptist academies were founded at Horton, Abergavenny, and Stepney, and these were soon followed by colleges in America, India, and Jamaica.

Download or read book Slavery and the University written by Leslie M. Harris and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slavery and the University is the first edited collection of scholarly essays devoted solely to the histories and legacies of this subject on North American campuses and in their Atlantic contexts. Gathering together contributions from scholars, activists, and administrators, the volume combines two broad bodies of work: (1) historically based interdisciplinary research on the presence of slavery at higher education institutions in terms of the development of proslavery and antislavery thought and the use of slave labor; and (2) analysis on the ways in which the legacies of slavery in institutions of higher education continued in the post–Civil War era to the present day. The collection features broadly themed essays on issues of religion, economy, and the regional slave trade of the Caribbean. It also includes case studies of slavery’s influence on specific institutions, such as Princeton University, Harvard University, Oberlin College, Emory University, and the University of Alabama. Though the roots of Slavery and the University stem from a 2011 conference at Emory University, the collection extends outward to incorporate recent findings. As such, it offers a roadmap to one of the most exciting developments in the field of U.S. slavery studies and to ways of thinking about racial diversity in the history and current practices of higher education.
