2 Changing Role of Religion 3/4 of Americans attended church regularly in 1850 Calvinism declining More liberal religious beliefs Deism Unitarianism Second Great Awakening Reaction to the liberalization of religion Began in southern frontier and then moved North Areas of major social and economic changes Mills, canals, rapid growth 1790s-1830s The Benevolent Empire :
3 Charles G. Finney ( ) soul-shaking conversion The ranges of tents, the fires, reflecting light ; the candles and lamps illuminating the encampment; hundreds moving to and fro ;the preaching, praying, singing, and shouting, like the sound of many waters, was enough to swallow up all the powers of contemplation. R1-2 Second Great Awakening Revival Meeting Characteristics of Revival Very attractive to people on the frontier Entertaining Got people away from home Thousands would attend Women also could attend and participate 3
4 The Burned-Over District in Upstate New York Second Great Awakening Characteristics Emotionalism Patriotism Promoted female spiritual worth Fragmentation of religious denominations Spoke to the middle to working classes Transcendentalism e Liberation from understanding and the cultivation of reasoning. e Rejected ideas of John Locke that knowledge comes from the senses e Truth transcends the limits of intellect and allows the emotions, the SOUL, to create an original relationship with the universe. 4
5 Transcendentalist Thinking Every person has an inner light that puts them in direct touch with God. Man is divine. Individuality over social group conformity in secular and religious matters. Stress on self-reliance and self-discipline. They instinctively rejected all secular authority and the authority of organized churches and the Scriptures, of law, or of conventions Transcendentalism Therefore, if man is divine, it would be wicked that he should be held in slavery, or his soul corrupted by superstition, or his mind clouded by ignorance. Thus, the role of the reformer was to restore man to that divinity which God had endowed them. Transcendentalist Intellectuals/ Writers Concord, MA Ralph Waldo Emerson Henry David Thoreau Nature (1832) Self-Reliance (1841) Walden (1854) Resistance to Civil Disobedience (1849) The American Scholar (1837) R3-1/3/4/5 5

Mother Ann Lee ( ) The Shakers e If you will take up your crosses against the works of generations, and follow Christ in the regeneration, God will cleanse you from all unrighteousness. e Remember the cries of those who are in need and trouble, that when you are in trouble, God may hear your cries. e If you improve in one talent, God will give you more.
