Book Description
Excerpt from Jasper Douthit's Story: The Autobiography of a Pioneer We have here a photograph and not a paint ing. Here is a realism that may mar the lit erary attractiveness of the picture, but which greatly enhances its value as the material out of which true history must eventually be written. Mr. Douthit appears in these pages as a chronicler rather than as an historian. He has given us a collection of facts which, superficially studied, may seem trifling and sometimes grue some, but deeper study, will disclose their value as it will reveal high joys and noble convictions.

The Chautauquan
Author: A Unitarian Oberlin
Author: Alfred Porter PutnamThe Chautauqua Moment
Author: Andrew Chamberlin RieserPublisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231501137
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
This book traces the rise and decline of what Theodore Roosevelt once called the "most American thing in America." The Chautauqua movement began in 1874 on the shores of Chautauqua Lake in western New York. More than a college or a summer resort or a religious assembly, it was a composite of all of these—completely derivative yet brilliantly innovative. For five decades, Chautauqua dominated adult education and reached millions with its summer assemblies, reading clubs, and traveling circuits. Scholars have long struggled to make sense of Chautauqua's pervasive yet disorganized presence in American life. In this critical study, Andrew Rieser weaves the threads of Chautauqua into a single story and places it at the vital center of fin de siècle cultural and political history. Famous for its commitment to democracy, women's rights, and social justice, Chautauqua was nonetheless blind to issues of class and race. How could something that trumpeted democracy be so undemocratic in practice? The answer, Rieser argues, lies in the historical experience of the white, Protestant middle classes, who struggled to reconcile their parochial interests with radically new ideas about social progress and the state. The Chautauqua Moment brings color to a colorless demographic and spins a fascinating tale of modern liberalism's ambivalent but enduring cultural legacy.
An Unitarian Oberlin, Or the Story of Jasper L. Douthit (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 80
Book Description
Excerpt from An Unitarian Oberlin, or the Story of Jasper L. Douthit The materials for this story of a singularly brave and useful man are mostly gathered from a variety of brief personal sketches and reports of missionary work which are found scattered through Unitarian papers, magazines, and other publica tions for the last quarter of a century, and there fore must be more or less familiar to many minds. I have thought it might serve a good purpose to cull from these numerous accounts What might best illustrate his life and character, and present it in this simple and connected form. If the record, as thus given, shall have the efiect, in any measure, to strengthen the hands, of the friend and brother Who is still battling for truth and right eousness, or to encourage others to live nobly and Victoriously, even under most adverse circum stances, my object and Wish in writing these pages will not have been in vain.
