After Jonathan Edwards : The Courses of the New England Theology
Overview: Jonathan Edwards (1703 - 1758) is widely regarded as one of the major thinkers in the Christian tradition and an important and influential figure in American theology. This book is a collection of specially commissioned essays that track his intellectual legacies from the work of his immediate disciples who formed the New Divinity movement in colonial New England, to his impact upon European traditions and modern Asia. It is a unique interdisciplinary contribution to the reception of Edwardsian ideas, with scholars of Edwards being brought together with scholars of New England theology and early American history to produce a ground-breaking examination of the ways in which New England Theology flourished, how themes in Edward's thought were taken up and changed by representatives of the school, and its lasting influence on the shape of American Christianity.
