The reason to look at seventeenth-century English and American Puritans' understanding and experience of joy, happiness, assurance, and affliction is to show how important the emotions were for Puritan culture, from leading figures such as Richard Baxter and John Bunyan through to more obscure diarists and letter-writers. Rejecting the modern opposition between 'head' and 'heart', these men and women believed that a rational religion was also a deeply-felt one, and that contemplative practices and other spiritual duties could produce transporting joy which was understood as a Christian's birthright. The emotional experiences which they expected from their faith, and the ones they actually encountered, constituted much of its power. Theologians, historians and literary scholars here combine to bring the study of Puritanism together with the new vogue for the history of the emotions. 000755203 650_0 $$aPuritans$$zEngland$$xHistory. 000755203 650_0 $$aPuritans$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000755203 650_0 $$aEmotions$$xReligious aspects$$xChristianity$$xHistory of doctrines. 000755203 7001_ $$aRyrie, Alec,$$eeditor. 000755203 7001_ $$aSchwanda, Tom,$$d1950-$$eeditor. 000755203 830_0 $$aChristianities in the trans-Atlantic world. 000755203 852__ $$bebk 000755203 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/9781137490988$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000755203 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:755203$$pGLOBAL_SET 000755203 980__ $$aEBOOK 000755203 980__ $$aBIB 000755203 982__ $$aEbook 000755203 983__ $$aOnline 000755203 994__ $$a92$$bISE
