In Their Own Words, Volume 1, The New England Colonies by Judge Mark T Boonstra Pdf

What has happened to America? It's no longer the country of our founding. Why? In a word . . . we've lost God. Our Founding Fathers established one nation under God. They declared that our rights came from God. They appealed to the Creator, the Almighty, the Supreme Being, for his guidance and protection. They understood that religion is essential to a free society (and to its government), not something to be separated from it. But the secularists have transformed America. They have banished God. And so they have gutted America of the very core, the foundation, the essence, of what made it America. You know it's true. You see it all around you. But how do you know? In In Their Own Words, Judge Boonstra shows you what your gut instinctively is telling you. He reveals not only who our Founding Fathers were, and what they believed, but he brings it to light In Their Own Words. And he then contrasts what our Founding Fathers said with real-world examples of what is happening today in America. So, don't take his word for it. Take the words of our Founding Fathers themselves. And then ask yourself: What Would Our Founding Fathers Think (of today's God-less America)? America, it's time to decide. Included in Volume I: John Adams Samuel Adams John Hancock Alexander Hamilton and so many more . . . Hon. Mark T. Boonstra is a highly respected jurist who has served since 2012 as a Judge of the Michigan Court of Appeals. From 2015-2017, he concurrently served as a Judge of the Michigan Court of Claims, where the trial court matters over which he presided included cases arising out of the Flint Water Crisis. He is blessed to have at his side Martha Mary (Rabaut) Boonstra, who is both a nurse and the general counsel of a large health system, and whose grandfather, Congressman Louis C. Rabaut, authored the "Under God" amendment to the Pledge of Allegiance.

A History of New England, Volume 1 by Isaac Backus Pdf

"A historian who has been an actor in the events which he narrates, has peculiar advantages and disadvantages. He can write with more minuteness of detail, and with a fresher and more life-like coloring. He can write with more confidence, and, drawing from his own experience and observation, is in this respect more trustworthy. On the other hand, he is more liable to be warped by prejudice, to see only the excellences and none of the defects of those with whom he has been identified, and only the defects and none of the excellences of those to whom he has been opposed, to be a partizan rather than a judge, and to make his narration little more than the reflection of his personal opinions or his personal sympathy and affection, hostility and spite. "The Church History of Isaac Backus has all the above-named excellences. To a large extent he was an eye-witness of that which he describes; and where not an eye-witness, he placed himself in closest possible connection with it by personal acquaintance with the actors, and by immediate and most diligent and thorough examination of records and other evidence. While it may be too much to say that he absolutely avoided the defects above named, yet his sound judgment, his natural candor and honesty and his elevated Christian principle, have made him as nearly free from them as perhaps any author who has written in similar circumstances." --from the Editor's Preface

The Science of the Soul in Colonial New England by Sarah Rivett Pdf

The Science of the Soul challenges long-standing notions of Puritan provincialism as antithetical to the Enlightenment. Sarah Rivett demonstrates that, instead, empiricism and natural philosophy combined with Puritanism to transform the scope of religious activity in colonial New England from the 1630s to the Great Awakening of the 1740s. In an unprecedented move, Puritan ministers from Thomas Shepard and John Eliot to Cotton Mather and Jonathan Edwards studied the human soul using the same systematic methods that philosophers applied to the study of nature. In particular, they considered the testimonies of tortured adolescent girls at the center of the Salem witch trials, Native American converts, and dying women as a source of material insight into the divine. Conversions and deathbed speeches were thus scrutinized for evidence of grace in a way that bridged the material and the spiritual, the visible and the invisible, the worldly and the divine. In this way, the "science of the soul" was as much a part of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century natural philosophy as it was part of post-Reformation theology. Rivett's account restores the unity of religion and science in the early modern world and highlights the role and importance of both to transatlantic circuits of knowledge formation.

A History of the Literature of the U.S. South: Volume 1 by Harilaos Stecopoulos Pdf

A History of the Literature of the U.S. South provides scholars with a dynamic and heterogeneous examination of southern writing from John Smith to Natasha Trethewey. Eschewing a master narrative limited to predictable authors and titles, the anthology adopts a variegated approach that emphasizes the cultural and political tensions crucial to the making of this regional literature. Certain chapters focus on major white writers (e.g., Thomas Jefferson, William Faulkner, the Agrarians, Cormac McCarthy), but a substantial portion of the work foregrounds the achievements of African American writers like Frederick Douglass, Zora Neale Hurston, and Sarah Wright to address the multiracial and transnational dimensions of this literary formation. Theoretically informed and historically aware, the volume's contributors collectively demonstrate how southern literature constitutes an aesthetic, cultural and political field that richly repays examination from a variety of critical perspectives.

A History of the Book in America by Hugh Amory,David D. Hall Pdf

The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World carries the interrelated stories of publishing, writing, and reading from the beginning of the colonial period in America up to 1790. Three major themes run through the volume: the persisting connections between the book trade in the Old World and the New, evidenced in modes of intellectual and cultural exchange and the dominance of imported, chiefly English books; the gradual emergence of a competitive book trade in which newspapers were the largest form of production; and the institution of a "culture of the Word," organized around an essentially theological understanding of print, authorship, and reading, complemented by other frameworks of meaning that included the culture of republicanism. The Colonial Book in the Atlantic World also traces the histories of literary and learned culture, censorship and "freedom of the press," and literacy and orality. Contributors: Hugh Amory Ross W.
