Sympathetic Puritans: Calvinist Fellow Feeling in Early New England - Religion in America
Van Engen, Abram (Assistant Professor of English, Assistant Professor of English, Washington University in St. Louis)
Sympathetic Puritans places sympathy at the heart of Puritanism and challenges the literary history of sentimentalism. It argues that a Calvinist theology of fellow feeling shaped the politics, religion, rhetoric, and literature of seventeenth-century New England, influencing the development of American culture.
