Puritanism is a non-fiction book written by Clarence Meily and originally published in 1911. The book provides a comprehensive overview of Puritanism, a religious movement that emerged in England during the 16th and 17th centuries. Meily explores the origins of Puritanism, its key beliefs and practices, and its impact on society and culture in England and America.The book begins by tracing the roots of Puritanism back to the Protestant Reformation, which challenged the authority of the Catholic Church and led to the emergence of various Protestant denominations. Meily then examines the key tenets of Puritanism, including its emphasis on personal piety, predestination, and the authority of scripture. He also explores the Puritan emphasis on hard work, frugality, and moral purity, which helped to shape the culture of early America.Throughout the book, Meily offers a nuanced and detailed analysis of the Puritan movement, drawing on a wide range of primary and secondary sources. He discusses the various factions within Puritanism, including the Separatists, the Presbyterians, and the Congregationalists, and examines their different approaches to theology and worship.Overall, Puritanism provides a fascinating and insightful look at one of the most important religious movements in history. Meily's clear and engaging writing style makes the book accessible to a wide range of readers, from scholars and students to general readers interested in the history of religion and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
