Recenzii
Yeager uncovers many heretofore overlooked treasures.
this work demonstrates the positive contribution that social history and print culture studies provide to the construction of evangelical history
While scholars of the history of the book will find fascinating Yeager's untangling of the complex of factors shaping the book trade in this period, American religious historians will appreciate not only his discussion of evangelicalism's role in this enterprise but also his novel perspective on the well-known writings of Jonathan Edwards.
Yeager's Jonathan Edwards and Transatlantic Print Culture is a well-researched volume telling a detailed, instructive story about the multifaceted efforts put into publishing Jonathan Edwards's works and the important people who made that happen. This monograph makes a valuable contribution to the fields of Jonathan Edwards, colonial America, the Atlantic world, and the history of the book.
Jonathan Yeager's Jonathan Edwards and Transatlantic Print Culture joins Melanie Bigold's Women of Letters, Manuscript Circulation and Print Afterlives in the Eighteenth Century (2013) and Tessa Whitehouse's The Textual Culture of English Protestant Dissent CHDBCIBB (2015) as groundbreaking monographs uncovering the history of early evangelical writing and publishing in Great Britain, America, and the Netherlands, a history generally ignored or marginalized in studies of print culture of this period.
The result of careful scholarship, this study of the business and practice of publishing Edwards's sermons and essays opens a portal on the fascinating infrastructure of the emergent intellectual culture of the colonies, which entailed navigating relationships, varieties of currency, shortages of paper, and war...Highly recommended
