- 요약 : This dissertation examines the rise and transformation of the Baptist movement in three southeastern Virginia counties, Isle of Wight, Southampton, and Sussex. The project explores how evangelical religion interacted with evolving conceptions of republicanism, gender, and slavery in the Revolutionary upper South. Recent historians have outlined southern evangelicalism's cultural and social radicalism in the eighteenth century, but also its accommodation to prevailing racial and gender norms in the nineteenth century. This intensive study of Baptist church records, ministerial writings, and local county records paints a more complex picture. In southeastern Virginia, Baptists of different races and sexes actively combined and interpreted religious and Revolutionary concepts such as fellowship, communion, and liberty in ways that confounded any effort to reduce their faith to a single social or cultural valence. Instead, the combination of evangelical and republican values forged during the Revolution provided Virginians with a common language in which they conducted an ongoing debate over the godliness and morality of their society. Some Virginians argued that notions of Christian fellowship and republican liberty sanctioned white patriarchal authority by construing that authority as divinely ordained and natural. But for others, these same concepts provided a scale by which the rule of Virginia's masters could be measured and found wanting. These ideas gave rise to both persistent antislavery sentiment among white Baptists in southeastern Virginia and vital independent religious and revolutionary traditions among African Americans in the region. By combining serious attention to religion with recent work on the social and cultural history of race and gender, this interpretation eschews the notion of a simple evangelical transition from radicalism to conservatism, and instead emphasizes the conflicted and contingent nature of both evangelicalism and southern culture throughout the Revolutionary era.
