Description: Recognized as a leading interpreter of major movements
in American Christianity such as Evangelicalism, Pentecostalism,
and the Holiness movement, Donald W. Dayton has produced a body of
work spanning four decades and diverse areas of inquiry. In From
the Margins, friends and colleagues respond to major essays by
Dayton (several published here for the first time) so as to
celebrate and reflect on this diverse and rich body of work. The
essays highlight the breadth of Dayton's contribution while also
revealing a methodological core. The latter could be described as
Dayton's deconstructive reading of standard scholarly narratives in
order to short-circuit their domesticating effects on the more
radical aspects of American Christianity. Dayton's work has
challenged long-held assumptions about the ""conservative"" nature
of American Christianity by showing that both in their history and
in their deeper theological substructures, traditions such as
Evangelicalism and Pentecostalism are far more radical and
productive of social change than was previously imagined.
Endorsements: ""Donald Dayton's writings on the history of American
evangelicalism combine impressive learning with a passion for the
relevance of scholarship. His challenging interpretations have
helped many others of us to rethink things from fresh
perspectives."" --George Marsden, author of many books including
Fundamentalism and American Culture, The Outrageous Idea of
Christian Scholarship, and Jonathan Edwards About the
Contributor(s): Christian T. Collins Winn is Assistant Professor of
Historical and Systematic Theology at Bethel University in St.
Paul, MN.
