Research Abstract |
The primary research for this project was conducted in Harvard libraries and archives. Additional research trips to the UK and Europe made it possible to track the transatlantic dissemination of ideas as well as historical dispersion of the international Reformed communities. Although the Reformed had certain theological convictions and practices in common, the local developments varied for each "diaspora" and shaped its features according to distinctive lived experiences. I broadened the basis of the study of 17th-century NE Puritanism by comparing the colonies with the Dutch commerce-oriented cities as well as republican city-states in Europe, rather than merely with the States and the cities of monarchical Britain. I also studied the interaction of NE Puritanism and Continental Pietism, which was a major factor in the formation of the Evangelical Protestantism that has predominated in the US from the 18th century on. Dr. David D. Hall was invited to Sophia U on the final year.
