For many English puritans, the new world represented new
opportunities for the reification of reformation, if not a site
within which they might begin to experience the conditions of the
millennium itself. For many Irish Catholics, by contrast, the new
world became associated with the experience of defeat, forced
transportation, indentured service, cultural and religious loss.
And yet, as the chapters in this volume demonstrate, the Atlantic
experience of puritans and Catholics could be much less bifurcated
than some of the established scholarly narratives have suggested:
puritans and Catholics could co-exist within the same
trans-Atlantic families; Catholics could prosper, just as puritans
could experience financial decline; and Catholics and puritans
could adopt, and exchange, similar kinds of belief structures and
practical arrangements, even to the extent of being mistaken for
each other. This volume investigates the history of Puritans and
Catholics in the Atlantic world, 1600-1800.
