      Product Description

      This book provides groundbreaking scholarship into the role of religion in shaping U.S. history. "Recent Themes in American Religious History" represents some of the best writing of recent years on understanding the context and importance of religious thought, movements, and figures in the American historical narrative. This collection of essays and interviews from "Historically Speaking" addresses several subjects central to religious history in the United States. The first section maps the state of American religious history as a field of study and includes interviews with award-winning senior religious studies scholars Robert Orsi and Stephen Prothero. Subsequent sections explore the challenges of assimilation faced by Jews and Catholics in the United States, the origins and historical significance of American evangelical Christianity, and the phenomenon of millennialism in America. The volume concludes with a discussion of religious experience as an indicator of the limits of historical understanding, and of the tension that exists between the two. Edited by Randall J.Stephens, "Recent Themes in American Religious History" will appeal to students, scholars, and general readers of American history, American studies, and religious studies.
