In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, thousands of ordinary
women and men experienced evangelical conversion and turned to a
certain form of spiritual autobiography to make sense of their
lives. This book traces the rise and progress of conversion
narrative as a unique form of spiritual autobiography in early
modern England. After outlining the emergence of the genre in the
seventeenth century and the revival of the form in the journals of
the leaders of the Evangelical Revival, the central chapters of the
book examine extensive archival sources to show the subtly
different forms of narrative identity that appeared among Wesleyan
Methodists, Moravians, Anglicans, Baptists, and others. Attentive
to the unique voices of pastors and laypeople, women and men,
Western and non-Western peoples, the book establishes the cultural
conditions under which the genre proliferated.
