Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boston Y. M. C. An. And Community Need: A Century's Evolution, 1851-1951 His history of the first Young Men's Christian Association formed in the United States is a case study in one of the most highly significant topics in the history of the past century; the development of the social welfare programs of private agencies. It relates the evolution of the Boston Y to two important trends: the world-wide Association movement, as an effort to meet the needs of young people during a period of urbaniza tion and industrialization; and the growth in particular of the Boston community, with its own problems and needs. I have sought to analyze the forces which brought the to Boston, to explain the organization's changing emphases, and to evaluate the effectiveness of its service to the community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Whether consciously molding the city through the construction of public spaces or developing social ties through organizations such as athletic clubs, Bostonians of all classes participated in recreation-based community building, often at cross-purposes. Elite Bostonians, for instance, promoted the establishment of parks as a healthy alternative to unsavory activities, such as drinking and gambling, that they associated with the city's vast new pool of immigrants. They were soon forced to compromise, however, with citizens who were less interested in the rhetoric of moral uplift than in using the parks for competitive athletics and commercial amusements."--BOOK JACKET.

  • Author : Margaret Lamberts Bendroth
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2005-07-14
  • ISBN : 0190291699
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book Fundamentalists in the City written by Margaret Lamberts Bendroth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-07-14 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamentalists in the City is a story of religious controversy and division, set within turn of the century and early twentieth-century Boston. It offers a new perspective on the rise of fundamentalism, emphasizing the role of local events, both sacred and secular, in deepening the divide between liberal and conservative Protestants. The first part of the narrative, beginning with the arrest of three clergymen for preaching on the Boston Common in 1885, shows the importance of anti-Catholicism as a catalyst for change. The second part of the book deals with separation, told through the events of three city-wide revivals, each demonstrating a stage of conservative Protestant detachment from their urban origins.
