Letterbooks. Bound letterbooks. Volume 3, 1803-1818 ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION Historical Note The Academy has received letters, announcements, and other forms of correspondence since the founding in 1780. All such correspondence was the responsibility of the Corresponding Secretary, one of the original officers of the Academy. Beginning sometime in the late 1800s, incoming letters were pasted into bound scrapbooks, which the Academy referred to as “letterbooks.” This practice continued until 1988, when staff began saving correspondence in folders. For the time period covered by Volume 3, the Presidents of the Academy were John Adams (1791-1814) and Edward Augustus Holyoke (1814-1820). The Corresponding Secretaries were John Quincy Adams (1802-1809) and Josiah Quincy (1809-1823). Scope and Content The series of letterbooks in its entirety includes letters from newly-elected Fellows, formally accepting their elections; communications with other learned societies (especially, invitations to attend meetings or send representatives to official events, and offers to exchange publications); correspondence concerning gifts of books, maps, and natural history specimens; and inquiries from members and non- members regarding the submission and publication of articles. Volume 3 contains letters and other documents received by the American Academy from 1803 to 1818. Most of this incoming correspondence pertains to the election of members and other administrative duties.

  • Untitled Sermon, “June 1, 1800,” Abiel Holmes Papers, Massachusetts Historical Society
    ABSTRACT Gospel of Liberty: Antislavery and American Salvation by Ben Wright Americans understood and sought to solve the problem of slavery in terms strongly colored by understandings of religious conversion. In the early-eighteenth century, Great Awakening revivals fueled a new belief in the transformative nature of religious conversion. By the antebellum era, theological changes – coupled with democratization and sectionalism – prompted greater direct confrontation with social reform. Historians have chronicled the role of religion in motivating antislavery thought, but by privileging political action over religious sentiment, earlier work misses non-political manifestations of early antislavery. If we take religious belief seriously and seek to understand antislavery motivations, the question is not whether reformers were gradualist or immediatist in political action, but whether or not they ascribed to the expectations of conversionist or purificationist causation. While conversionists sought to destroy slavery through the millennial expansion of salvation, other Christians looked within, laboring to purify their own communities through coercive action. Imperatives of conversion drove ministers to consolidate religious authority in new national denominational bodies. Forming these bodies had the unintended side effect of pushing denominationalists toward social reform. This process added organized social reform as an additional religious solution, alongside that of conversionist millennialism, to the era’s social problems. In the early 1830s, the conversionist consensus cracked, and a new coercive, sectionalist antislavery took its iii" place. Conversionist appeals continued, but the antislavery of men and, increasingly, women challenged the causation of conversion and began to look to political agitation as a means of reform. Each stage of this progression shaped the worlds of American antislavery.

First of all, I must thank my advisor, Dr. Jon Wakelyn, who has the patience of Job. When I got off on a tangent or lost my focus, it was Dr. Wakelyn who helped get me back on track. He has gently shepherded me through the pitfalls of this process, while at the same time, would never let me settle for second best. In so many ways, he has helped me think like a professional historian and his guidance has been a major factor in my completion of this work.

  • 21 July 1773: Disputation, Poetry, Slavery
    21 July 1773: Disputation, Poetry, Slavery Peter Galison 1. Reasoned and Spiritual Exercises On Wednesday, 21 July 1773, Eliphalet Pearson and Theodore Parsons, two graduating students from Harvard College, publicly disputed whether the enslavement of Africans was compatible with natural law. The political tension of the moment did not spare the college. In 1768–69, British troops stationed in King Street (now State Street) leveled their cannons at the State House door, no doubt concentrating the minds of the legislators (“we have a right to deliberate, consult, and determine” they protested), before the lawmakers decamped to Harvard, where they met several times in 1768–70.1 Matters deteriorated further after British soldiers killed five It is an enormous pleasure to dedicate this essay to Arnold Davidson. For more than thirty years, we have spoken and thought about issues relating to the self, ethics, and Michel Foucault. I have learned more than I can possibly say here from those conversations. On disputation history, no one has helped me more, or contributed more to the scholarship, than Ku-ming (Kevin) Chang. His published work, his advice, his insights have been invaluable. Without his work, and without my collaborative efforts with Henry Louis Gates over the last year, I never would have seen my way clear to joining the trajectory of Phillis Wheatley with those of Theodore Parsons and Eliphalet Pearson. Caroline A. Jones had analytic and encouraging comments all the way through. Add to these debts of mine that it was an enormous pleasure to work (on the film No More, America) with the enormously talented young actors Ashley LaLonde, Caleb Spiegel- Ostrom, and Connor Doyle; film editor Chyld King; music director Emily Dolan; researcher Kevin Burke; production assistant Nicole Terrien; and with the great theatrical collaboration, guidance, and comments from my colleagues at the American Repertory Theater, especially Diane Paulus, Diane Borger, Sammi Cannold, and Ryan McKittrick.
