Download or read book The Shaker Collection written by and published by . This book was released on 1792 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing was a millennial religious sect that had originated in England among the Society of Friends but separated from their Quaker brethren in the 1740s. Popularly known as Shakers, this community would relocate to colonial America. In the Shaker Collection, held by the Library of Congress, papers focus on communities established in Enfield, Connecticut; Pleasant Hill and South Union, Kentucky; Canaan and New Lebanon, New York; and Union Village, Ohio. There are also smaller groups of material on Alfred, Maine; Busro (now West Union), Indiana; Canterbury and Enfield, New Hampshire; Hancock, Harvard, Pittsfield, and Tyringham, Massachusetts; Watervliet, New York; and Watervliet and Whitewater, Ohio. The collection includes correspondence, diaries and journals, recipes, photographs, financial and legal papers, community laws and rules, church records such as covenants, hymns and hymnals, orders and instructions, spiritual communications, prayers, inspirational writings and drawings, registers, lists of members, logbooks, lectures and speeches, and writings by and about members, including poetry, autobiographical, biographical, and historical sketches, essays, memoirs, testimonies, and notes and book drafts. Most of the collection concerns the period from 1792 to 1937, although some material relates to events as early as 1676. The records reflect many aspects of Shaker life and history. The diaries and journals document the daily life of individuals, including mention of the weather, and community events such as the construction of buildings, travels of the members, education of children, and the arrival and departure of visitors. Some diaries are more concerned with character and spiritual development. The autobiographical, biographical, and historical sketches, memoirs, logbooks, and registers provide further accounts of life in Shaker communities. Birth and death dates of early Shakers are often noted; other demographic data can be obtained from the registers and writings. Material related to two unpublished books includes the drafts and notes for a history of Union Village and the autobiography of Susanna C. Liddell. Shaker beliefs and religious practices are recorded in volumes containing covenants, declarations of trust, church orders and instructions, discourses, and essays. The significance of revelation and inspiration in Shaker religion can be seen in the many accounts of visions and spiritual communications with deceased members of the sect, including Ann Lee, William Lee, and James Whittaker, or with angels and other divine beings. A significant amount of material also relates to Shaker music. Hymns and anthems are especially numerous. Musical accompaniment even appears for some of the hymns. Prominent Shakers who are represented in the collection by correspondence, diaries, journals, or other writings include Giles Bushnell Avery, David Darrow, Calvin Green, Matthew Houston, Rebecca Jackson, Susanna C. Liddell, Richard McNemar, Joseph Meacham, Richard Pelham, Seth Y. Wells, and Isaac N. Youngs.
Download or read book Hoosiers and the American Story written by Madison, James H. and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.

Download or read book Anti Intellectualism in American Life written by Richard Hofstadter and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 1964 Pulitzer Prize in Nonfiction Anti-Intellectualism in American Life is a book which throws light on many features of the American character. Its concern is not merely to portray the scorners of intellect in American life, but to say something about what the intellectual is, and can be, as a force in a democratic society. "As Mr. Hofstadter unfolds the fascinating story, it is no crude battle of eggheads and fatheads. It is a rich, complex, shifting picture of the life of the mind in a society dominated by the ideal of practical success." —Robert Peel in the Christian Science Monitor
