The First Unitarians In New England
Authors : Fouzia Bekaddouri .
Abstract
Starting from the early seventeenth century, Puritanism was the main religion in New England; but a number of circumstances affected its dominance and made the Puritans lose their influence. As a result, in the eighteenth century a number of Puritan Churches converted to Unitarianism. This paper deals with the historical development of Unitarianism in Europe and America, how the Puritan hegemony in the New World gave away, and with the main circumstances that compelled New England Churches to adopt Unitarianism. The method used in this paper is descriptive and contrastive.
Keywords
