Tribute to the Memory of the Pilgrims by Joel Hawes Pdf

Excerpt from Tribute to the Memory of the Pilgrims: And a Vindication of the Congregational Churches of New England The following Lectures were delivered on successive Sabbath evenings during the months of March and April of the present year. It would be trite to say that they were written without any reference to publication, and are committed to the press at the request of friends. Such however is the simple fact. The discussion was commenced for the benefit of the author's own charge, and with no purpose of extending it beyond two or three discourses. It was so announced to the audience. But as the subject was pursued, it increased in interest and presented other and important topics of remark, and was therefore continued much beyond the author's original design. After he had consented to the publication of the Lectures, it was his intention to give them a careful revision, that he might correct those inaccuracies in style and language which necessarily attend the first draught of a composition. But the pressure of daily employments, together with feeble health, has rendered this impracticable; and he is now compelled to commit the work to the press with only expressing his regret at defects which he is unable to supply. This, however, is not offered as ail apology for errors in sentiment, or for mis-statement of material facts. If in these respects, the author has in any case fallen into mistakes, he can only say that it has not been for the want of a desire to know, nor of sincere endeavors to ascertain the truth.

Memory's Nation by John Seelye Pdf

Long celebrated as a symbol of the country's origins, Plymouth Rock no longer receives much national attention. In fact, historians now generally agree that the Pilgrims' storied landing on the Rock never actually took place--the tradition having emerged more than a century after the arrival of the Mayflower. In Memory's Nation, however, John Seelye is not interested in the factual truth of the landing. He argues that what truly gives Plymouth Rock its significance is more than two centuries of oratorical, literary, and artistic celebrations of the Pilgrims' arrival. Seelye traces how different political, religious, and social groups used the image of the Rock on behalf of their own specific causes and ideologies. Drawing on a wealth of speeches, paintings, and popular illustrations, he shows how Plymouth Rock changed in meaning over the years, beginning as a symbol of freedom evoked in patriotic sermons at the start of the Revolution and eventually becoming an icon of exclusion during the 1920s.

The Last Puritans by Margaret Bendroth Pdf

Congregationalists, the oldest group of American Protestants, are the heirs of New England's first founders. While they were key characters in the story of early American history, from Plymouth Rock and the founding of Harvard and Yale to the Revolutionary War, their luster and numbers have faded. But Margaret Bendroth's critical history of Congregationalism over the past two centuries reveals how the denomination is essential for understanding mainline Protestantism in the making. Bendroth chronicles how the New England Puritans, known for their moral and doctrinal rigor, came to be the antecedents of the United Church of Christ, one of the most liberal of all Protestant denominations today. The demands of competition in the American religious marketplace spurred Congregationalists, Bendroth argues, to face their distinctive history. By engaging deeply with their denomination's storied past, they recast their modern identity. The soul-searching took diverse forms--from letter writing and eloquent sermonizing to Pilgrim-celebrating Thanksgiving pageants--as Congregationalists renegotiated old obligations to their seventeenth-century spiritual ancestors. The result was a modern piety that stood a respectful but ironic distance from the past and made a crucial contribution to the American ethos of religious tolerance.
