요약 : First, the division of religion in New York City's congregations was the result of varying pastoral strategies. Problems of poverty, industrialization and commercialization were not merely worrying for social or economic reasons; they hampered the ritual acts of evangelical piety centered upon the act of preaching and its relationship to the conversion experience. Both liberals and fundamentalists offered ways to preserve the power of evangelical religious practice, and their disagreements were based on these varying solutions. This is a useful corrective to arguments that the pressures of social reform led liberal evangelicals toward secularization.

요약 : The second argument is that the closer one gets to the lived experience of American evangelicals, the blurrier definitions become. Though the terms "fundamentalist" and "liberal" had distinct meanings, evangelicals were equally aware that both lay claim to a way of understanding what it was to be religious derived from their common heritage in American evangelicalism's language and history and methods. Today, despite the popular historiographical perspective that conservatives beat a retreat in the 1920s, many Americans associate the label "evangelical" with a politically threatening subculture premised upon a rather humorless orthodoxy. The dispute over what constitutes "evangelicalism" is a persistent one, both in and outside the academy. Taking practice seriously is a first step toward restoring the movement's rich heritage.
초록/해제  
요약 : This study examines how the rise of liberal and fundamentalist factions of American evangelicalism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries---a dispute usually assumed to be basically theological---appeared from the perspective of the ministers and congregations of New York City's Protestant churches. I argue that conflict should be understood not as a theological clash but as an exhibition of the resilience of American evangelical culture in the modern age. The rise of liberalism and fundamentalism cannot be understood apart from their interaction with the social and cultural forces of the changing modern city. I investigate the ways evangelicals explained and sought to master a city transforming first into an industrial powerhouse dominated by immigrants and eventually into the hub of a commercial consumer society. The dissertation makes two interwoven arguments.
