1 Chapter 12 Antebellum Culture & Reform The Rise of Popular Religion In France, I had almost always seen the spirit of religion and the spirit of freedom pursuing courses diametrically opposed to each other; but in America, I found that they were intimately united, and that they reigned in common over the same country Religion was the foremost of the political institutions of the United States. -- Alexis de Tocqueville, 1832 Second Great Awakening Began in early 1800 s, traditional region staged a dramatic comeback ( revivalism ) => Second Great Awakening. Spread religious fervor throughout the country. Churches and membership (Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian) mushroomed. Unlike the First G.A. of the old time Puritans, this did not scare a captive congregation with dire predictions of a vengeful God s and arbitrary judgments. Second Great Awakening But instead, message: Benevolent God desires salvation for everyone of his children. Basic thrust: Individual must re-admit God and Christ into their lives. Embrace fervent worship and reject skeptical rationalism Believe that he/she could affect his/her own destiny and reach salvation through faith and good works. Second Great Awakening Accelerated the growth of different Christian sects and denominations. Served as vehicle for establishing order and social stability in communities still searching for an identify. Attracted a great deal of women (young women) and African Americans (stirring racial unrest in the South) p308 1
2 Rise of Evangelism Methodists proceeded to their camp meeting The Second Great Awakening: The Frontier Camp meetings ignited a spiritual Phasefervor that converted thousands and altered the religious landscape of America forever. Camp meeting revivals conveyed intensely personal religious message ~25,000 people gathered to hear the gospel preached by charismatic orators who rode the circuit from camp to camp 1835 Evangelical camp meeting Second Great Awakening in the North Trained as lawyer, but became one of the greatest evangelist Held crowd spellbound with his oratory skills Led massive Charles Finney revivals in Rochester & NY City ( ) Second Great Awakening in the South black slaves and freed men and women could also attend segregated, companion revivals Second Great Awakening s Effects on Women Was the feminization of religion. Wives, daughters of businessmen: most fervent enthusiasts. Why the attraction? Evangelicals preached a gospel of female spiritual worth, that they play an active role in bringing their husbands and families back to God. Gave women the inspiration, then, to save the rest of society. They formed a host of benevolent and charitable organizations and spearheaded some of the 2

4 Transcendentalism Liberation from understanding and the cultivation of reasoning. Transcend the limits of intellect and allow the emotions, the SOUL, to create an original relationship with the Universe. Transcendentalist Thinking Man must acknowledge a body of moral truths that were intuitive and must TRANSCEND more sensational proof: 1. The infinite benevolence of God. 2. The infinite benevolence of nature. 3. The divinity of man. They instinctively rejected all secular authority and the authority of organized churches and the Scriptures, of law, or of conventions Transcendentalism (European Romanticism) Transcendentalist Intellectuals/Writers Concord, MA Therefore, if man was 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. Nature (1832) Ralph Waldo Emerson Self-Reliance (1841) Walden (1854) Henry David Thoreau Resistance to Civil Disobedience (1849) The American Scholar (1837) Watch Transcendentalism The Transcendentalist Agenda Give freedom to the slave. Give well-being to the poor and the miserable. Give learning to the ignorant. Give health to the sick. Give peace and justice to society. A Transcendentalist Critic: Nathaniel Hawthorne ( ) Their pursuit of the ideal led to a distorted view of human nature and possibilities: * The Blithedale Romance One should accept the world as an imperfect place: * Scarlet Letter * House of the Seven Gables 4
5 The Pursuit of Perfection In Antebellum America Nationalism and Romanticism: American Painting American artists expressed the nation s virtues, evoked the wonder of America s landscape. Nature (not civilization) was best source of wisdom & spiritual fulfillment. The Hudson River School: 1820s-1870 Background Emergence of an American romantic impulse, independent from Europe. These artists captured the undiluted power of nature Paint the nation s most spectacular and undeveloped areas [the new Garden of Eden]. Nature (not civilization) was the best source of wisdom & fulfillment. Painting is the vehicle through which the universal mind could reach the mind of mankind. Art is the agent of moral & spiritual transformation. Characteristics of the Hudson River School A new art for a new land. Paint grand, scenic vistas. Humans are an insignificant [even nonexistent] part of the picture. Experiment with affects of light on water and sky. Issues/Themes Addressed by the Antebellum Artists Transcendentalist thinking. Westward expansion. American nationalism --> What is America? * Creation of a national mythology Racism and Native Americans. Concern for political extremism. The price paid for progress and the advances of civilization. 5

Remember the cries of those who are in need and trouble, that when you are in trouble, God may hear your cries. If you improve in one talent, God will give you more. Shaker Hymn Shaker Simplicity & Utility 'Tis the gift to be simple, 'Tis the gift to be free, 'Tis the gift to come down where you ought to be, And when we find ourselves in the place just right, 'Twill be in the valley of love and delight. When true simplicity is gained To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed, To turn, turn will be our delight, 'Till by turning, turning we come round right. 9

Her role was to civilize her husband and family. Child rearing seen as essential preparation for self-disciplined Christian life Women confined to domestic sphere Women assumed crucial role within home What It Would Be Like If Ladies Had Their Own Way! An 1830s MA minister: The power of woman is her dependence. A woman who gives up that dependence on man to become a reformer yields the power God has given her for her protection, and her character becomes unnatural!
