Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One of the more plainspoken and entertaining accounts of the Onderdonk controversy, from an author whom Onderdonk remarks in his statement, 'His erratic peculiarities are well known.' Richmond here unravels the conspiracy against Onderdonk by claiming sole credit for it. He also amplifies on the rumors that Onderdonk drank ('I said, "He is in the habit of being overcome by wine;" and I confess here I made a mistake out of tenderness, for I ought to have said brandy'), though his most damning remarks regard the Bishop's sexual misconduct. Richmond notes, 'a wife of a clergyman now living in the West, whose testimony will come in, on the second trial, was standing alone in a room by a window, when this mad * * ll came up softly behind her, and at once, like lightning, thrust both his hands down into her bosom!'"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1968, Winthrop D. Jordan published his groundbreaking work White Over Black: American Attitudes toward the Negro, 1550-1812 and opened up new avenues for thinking about sex, slavery, race, and religion in American culture. Over the course of a forty-year career at the University of California and the University of Mississippi, he continued to write about these issues and to train others to think in new ways about interactions of race, gender, faith, and power. Written by former students of Jordan, these essays are a tribute to the career of one of America's great thinkers and perhaps the most influential American historian of his generation. The book visits historical locales from Puritan New England and French Louisiana to nineteenth-century New York and Mississippi, all the way to Harlem swing clubs and college campuses in the twentieth century. In the process, authors listen to the voices of abolitionists and white supremacists, preachers and politicos, white farm women and black sorority sisters, slaves, and jazz musicians. Each essay represents an important contribution to the collection's larger themes and at the same time illustrates the impact Jordan exerted on the scholarly life of each author. Collectively, these pieces demonstrate the attentiveness to detail and sensitivity to sources that are hallmarks of Jordan's own work.

Download or read book Without Benefit of Clergy written by Karin E. Gedge and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-06 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The common view of the nineteenth-century pastoral relationship--found in both contemporary popular accounts and 20th-century scholarship--was that women and clergymen formed a natural alliance and enjoyed a particular influence over each other. In Without Benefit of Clergy, Karin Gedge tests this thesis by examining the pastoral relationship from the perspective of the minister, the female parishioner, and the larger culture. The question that troubled religious women seeking counsel, says Gedge, was: would their minister respect them, help them, honor them? Surprisingly, she finds, the answer was frequently negative. Gedge supports her conclusion with evidence from a wide range of previously untapped primary sources including pastoral manuals, seminary students' and pastors' journals, women's diaries and letters, pamphlets, sentimental and sensational novels, and The Scarlet Letter.
