Puritans in America
American literature: A vanishing subject
Writing New England: An Anthology from the Puritans to the Present
The Job and the Calling
Throughout our history, the hallmark of American culture has been competition, individual ambition, and the desire for achievement as measured in terms of economic success. These forces have reached unprecedented intensity in recent years, which leaves practitioners and teachers of medicine caught as never before in the vortex of a society driven by market values. In the final analysis, these values--while they account for many of the great achie…
Writing New England: An Anthology from the Puritans to the Present
The story of New England writing begins some 400 years ago, when a group of English Puritans crossed the Atlantic believing that God had appointed them to bring light and truth to the New World. Over the centuries since, the people of New England have produced one of the great literary traditions of the world--an outpouring of poetry, fiction, history, memoirs, letters, and essays that records how the original dream of a godly commonwealth has be…

The Puritan Ordeal
Out of the Wilderness: The Emergence of an American Identity in Colonial New England
The Puritan Ordeal
The Puritan Ordeal
More than an ecclesiastical or political history, this book is a vivid description of the earliest American immigrant experience. It depicts the dramatic tale of the seventeenth-century newcomers to our shores as they were drawn and pushed to make their way in an unsettled and unsettling world
The Puritan Ordeal
The Puritans in America: A Narrative Anthology
An American Reformation: A Documentary History of Unitarian Christianity
Looking Homeward, Going Home: The Lure of England for the Founders of New England
THOSE New Englanders who decided in the middle years of the seventeenth century that they would not, after all, remain in the New World have not fared well with historians-not as well, say, as the mob-tormented loyalists of the Revolution who were rediscovered in the 1960s. Perhaps because the repatriates slipped back to England relatively quietly and did not, for various political and psychological reasons, suffer intensely the scorn of those th…
The Puritans in America
In a felicitous blend of documents and narrative Heimert and Delbanco recapture the sweep and restless change of Puritan thought from its incipient Americanism through its dominance in New England society to its fragmentation in the face of dissent from within and without.
