Unitarianism in the Antebellum South

the other invisible institution

"John Macaulay's model study of Unitarianism in the antebellum South reestablishes the denomination's position as an influential religious movement in the early history of the region.

By looking at benevolent societies, lay meetings, professional and civic activity, ecumenical interchange, intellectual forums, business partnerships, literary correspondence, friendships, and other associations in which southern Unitarians were engaged with other southerners on a daily basis, Macaulay sees a much greater Unitarian presence than has been previously recognized.

Instead of relying on a count of church steeples to gauge numbers, this volume blurs the lines between southern Unitarianism and orthodoxy by demonstrating how their theologies coexisted and intertwined."--BOOK JACKET.
