Bringing together essays by a leading intellectual and religious
historian, The Divided Heart is a collection of recent reflections,
sometimes with a considerable autobiographical element, by Henry F.
May on the conflict between Protestantism and the Enlightenment
that runs throughout the history of American culture. Summarizing
May's opinions on recent historiographical arguments, the
introduction to The Divided Heart tells of his own development as a
historian, major influences upon his thinking, and how his
practicing assumptions grew. Covering religion, there are essays on
early American history, Jonathan Edwards, Harriet Beecher Stowe,
Reinhold Niebuhr, and "reflections on the uneasy relation" between
religion and American intellectual history. Relating to the
Enlightenment, there are essays on the Constitution and the
"Jeffersonian Moment." Suggesting a new and interdisciplinary
approach, May's last essay deals with the end of the Enlightenment
and the beginning of Romanticism, an area of history with which he
has never before dealt.
