Evangelicalism contributed to the great transformation of ideas in
the modern world. This book represents a pioneering study of
discussions within the evangelical movements from Central Europe to
the American colonies about what constituted evangelical identity
and of the basis of the fraternity among evangelical leaders of
strikingly different backgrounds. Through a global study of the
major figures and movements in the early Evangelical world, W. R.
Ward aims to show that down through the eighteenth century the
evangelical elite had coherent answers to the general intellectual
problems of their day and that piety as well as the enlightenment
was a significant motor of intellectual change. However, as the
century wore on the evangelicals lost the ability to state a broad
intellectual setting for their case, and when they entered on their
period of greatest social influence in the nineteenth century their
former cohesion disintegrated into acute partisan wrangling.
