First published in 1907, this text provides a scientific
treatment of New England theology and American dogmatic history.
Frank Hugh Foster analyses the eighteenth-century rise of the
school of New England theology, which became the dominant school of
thought in New England congregationalism and, as argued by Foster,
a world phenomenon . The chapters arise from readings of the
various distinguished views of such contemporaries as Jonathan
Edwards, Joseph Bellamy and Samuel Hopkins, placing them within the
historical and theological context in which they developed. A
fascinating and detailed title, this reissue will be of value to
students of theology and Church history with a particular interest
in the development of American religious thought. "
