Download or read book Samson Occom written by Ryan Carr and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mohegan-Brothertown minister Samson Occom (1723–1792) was a prominent political and religious leader of the Indigenous peoples of present-day New York and New England, among whom he is still revered today. An international celebrity in his day, Occom rose to fame as the first Native person to be ordained a minister in the New England colonies. In the 1770s, he helped found the nation of Brothertown, where Coastal Algonquian families seeking respite from colonialism built a new life on land given to them by the Oneida Nation. Occom was a highly productive author, probably the most prolific Native American writer prior to the late nineteenth century. Most of Occom’s writings, however, have been overlooked, partly because many of them are about Christian themes that seem unrelated to Native life. In this groundbreaking book, Ryan Carr argues that Occom’s writings were deeply rooted in Indigenous traditions of hospitality, diplomacy, and openness to strangers. From Occom’s point of view, evangelical Christianity was not a foreign culture; it was a new opportunity to practice his people’s ancestral customs. Carr demonstrates Occom’s originality as a religious thinker, showing how his commitment to Native sovereignty shaped his reading of the Bible. By emphasizing the Native sources of Occom’s evangelicalism, this book offers new ways to understand the relations of Northeast Native traditions to Christianity, colonialism, and Indigenous self-determination.
Download or read book Jonathan Edwards written by J. Matthew Pinson and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2024-08-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan Edwards: A Reformed Arminian Engagement provides a fresh perspective on the theology of one of the most influential thinkers in American Christianity. Famous—or perhaps infamous—for his image of “Sinners in the hands of an angry God,” Jonathan Edwards is closely associated with Calvinist thought. However, this book brings together a collection of essays that reconsiders his theology from the vantage point of Reformed Arminianism. Through a critical engagement with Edwards' thought, the authors of this book offer alternative expressions of fidelity to the early Reformed confessions without the deterministic metaphysics associated with Calvinism. This approach provides a unique opportunity for constructive theological dialogue among Calvinists, Arminians, and other varieties of non-Calvinists. By exploring Edwards' theology from a Reformed Arminian perspective, readers are invited to think more deeply about the hard lines drawn between confessional traditions and traditional theological systems that too often characterize the Calvinist-Arminian debate. This book challenges readers to consider the ways in which different theological perspectives can enrich their understanding of faith and deepen their engagement with Christians of other confessions. Written with clarity and insight, Jonathan Edwards: A Reformed Arminian Engagement is an essential resource for anyone seeking to engage with the thought of this influential figure in American Christianity. Contributors: J. Matthew Pinson, Paul V. Harrison, Kevin L. Hester, Barry Raper, Robert E. Picirilli, and Matthew McAffee

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eighteenth century is one of the most important periods in the history of Western philosophy, witnessing philosophical, scientific, and social and political change on a vast scale. In spite of this, there are few single volume overviews of the philosophy of the period as a whole. The Routledge Companion to Eighteenth Century Philosophy is an authoritative survey and assessment of this momentous period, covering major thinkers, topics and movements in Eighteenth century philosophy. Beginning with a substantial introduction by Aaron Garrett, the thirty-five specially commissioned chapters by an outstanding team of international contributors are organised into seven clear parts: Context and Movements Metaphysics and Understanding Mind, Soul, and Perception Morals and Aesthetics Politics and Society Philosophy in relation to the Arts and Sciences Major Figures. Major topics and themes are explored and discussed, ranging from materialism, free will and personal identity; to the emotions, the social contract, aesthetics, and the sciences, including mathematics and biology. The final section examines in more detail three figures central to the period: Hume, Rousseau and Kant. As such The Routledge Companion to Eighteenth Century Philosophy is essential reading for all students of the period, both in philosophy and related disciplines such as politics, literature, history and religious studies.

Download or read book Heaven s Interpreters written by Ashley Reed and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Heaven's Interpreters, Ashley Reed reveals how nineteenth-century American women writers transformed the public sphere by using the imaginative power of fiction to craft new models of religious identity and agency. Women writers of the antebellum period, Reed contends, embraced theological concepts to gain access to the literary sphere, challenging the notion that theological discourse was exclusively oppressive and served to deny women their own voice. Attending to modes of being and believing in works by Augusta Jane Evans, Harriet Jacobs, Catharine Maria Sedgwick, Elizabeth Oakes Smith, Elizabeth Stoddard, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Susan Warner, Reed illuminates how these writers infused the secular space of fiction with religious ideas and debates, imagining new possibilities for women's individual agency and collective action. Thanks to generous funding from Virginia Tech and its participation in TOME (Toward an Open Monograph Ecosystem), the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access volumes from Cornell Open cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other repositories.
