| Description: |
Presents religious dissent in the United States as a pervasive but hidden and often-ignored stream in American life. This book reviews the history of the nation's longest dissenting tradition, a tradition older and richer in the realm of religion than in any other facet of national life. It features a commentary on the American religious history. |
| Synopsis: |
"Dissent in American Religion", originally published in 1973, was the first book to present religious dissent in the United States as a pervasive but hidden and often-ignored stream in American life. The first volume in the "Chicago History of American Religion" series, it reviewed the history of our nation's longest dissenting tradition - a tradition older and richer in the realm of religion than in any other facet of national life. Indeed, Edwin Scott Gaustad argued that religious dissent was essential to the character of the American religious experience and stood in profound disagreement with society's orthodox values and beliefs. This new edition, which reinaugurates the "Chicago History of American Religion" series under the new editorship of John Corrigan, features new commentary by Gaustad and Corrigan on the past thirty years of American religious history and the importance of understanding dissent in American religion today. |
