Inhaltsangabe

 
       Beginning with the Great Awakening in the American colonies and continuing
        through contemporary Latin America, where revolution and revivalism have
        been central to sociopolitical change, Modern Christian Revivals
        demonstrates the enduring relevance of Christian revivalism. Half of the
        contributors focus on the United States, from Puritan New England through
        the Old South to Billy Graham and Pat Robertson; the others discuss revivalism
        in England, Norway, China, and Canada, chronicling influential as well
        as less frequently studied movements. This volume explores long-held assumptions
        about revivalism and illustrates its central role in the Christian tradition.
