520 1  "There is no questioning the importance of colonial 
       authors - particularly the Puritan leaders of the 
       seventeenth century - in American history and literature. 
       The work of such men as John Cotton, Thomas Hooker, 
       Richard Mather, and Roger Williams, the "shining lights" 
       who sought to shape a model society, provided much of the 
       fundamental structure upon which the new colonies were 
       built. Frustrated in their reformation efforts in old 
       England, these English men, voicing English concerns for 
       English audiences, sought to implement their plan in the 
       new England. Thus, as author Francis J. Bremer chronicles,
       they were indeed "shaping new Englands."" "In this welcome
       study, Bremer provides a teeming survey of virtually every
       seventeenth-century Puritan clerical writer of 
       significance, studying not only the books, but also sermon
       notes and unpublished manuscripts. In so doing, he 
       provides an astoundingly rich body of work and a truly 
       unique perspective. Bremer's thoughtful approach distills 
       the unity in outlook among these preachers - without 
       abandoning the diversity that existed in tone, practice, 
       and belief. Carefully reviewing the methods and 
       assumptions of many preceding scholars, he adventures into
       new territories and even back toward once discarded 
       avenues. No aspect of the Puritan movement is left 
       unexamined as Bremer illuminates much more than merely 
       subject matter and viewpoint. Beginning with a clear and 
       thoughtful introduction that defines, among other details,
       the Anglo-American context in which this story is told, he
       proceeds to the events that gave rise to the Puritan 
       movement; the Puritan style; writings of theology and 
       piety, views on polity and social matters; and, finally, 
       the changes wrought in the new Englands - and how the 
       writings changed in response."--Jacket.
