In 1833, Massachusetts was the last state in the nation to “disestablish” taxation and state support for churches.1 What, if any, impact did John Adams have on this process of liberalization? What were Adams’ views on religious freedom and how did they change over time? In this intriguing article Dr. Arthur Scherr traces the evolution, or lack thereof, in Adams’ views on religious freedom from the writing of the original 1780 Massachusetts Constitution to its revision in 1820. He carefully examines contradictory primary and secondary sources and seeks to set the record straight, arguing that there are many unsupported myths and misconceptions about Adams’ role at the 1820 convention.

  • Boston Massacre, 1770
    Boston Massacre, 1770 1AUL REVERE’S “Boston Massacre” is the most famous and most desirable t of all his engravings. It is the corner-stone of any American collection. This is not because of its rarity. More than twenty-five copies of the original Revere could be located, and the late Charles E. Goodspeed handled at least a dozen. But it commemorated one of the great events of American history, it was engraved by a famous artist and patriot, and its crude coloring and design made it exceedingly decorative. The mystery of its origin and the claims for priority on the part of at least three engravers constitute problems that are somewhat perplexing and are still far from being solved. There were three prints of the Massacre issued in Massachusetts in 1770, as far as the evidence goes — those by Pelham, Revere, and Mulliken. The sequence of the advertisements in the newspapers is important. The Boston Ez’ening Post of March 26, 1770, carried the following advertisement, “To be Sold by Edes and Gill (Price One Shilling Lawful) A Print, containing a Representation of the late horrid Massacre in King-street.” In the Boston Gazette, also of March 26, I 770, appears the same advertisement, only the price is changed to “Eight Pence Lawful Money.” On March 28, 1770, Revere in his Day Book charges Edes & Gill £ ç for “Printing 200 Impressions of Massacre.” On March 29, 770, 1 Henry Pelham, the Boston painter and engraver, wrote the following letter to Paul Revere: “THuRsD\y I\IORNG.

  • Download a PDF of Imagining the Boston Massacre
    Imagining the Boston Massacre Imagining the Boston Massacre asks students to consider images of the one of the most important and controversial events of the Revolutionary era. This lesson invites students to examine and interpret depictions of the Boston Massacre—the deadly confrontation between Bostonians and British troops on the evening of March 5, 1770—by examining contemporary engravings of the event by Henry Pelham and Paul Revere of Boston and Jonathan Mulliken of Newburyport, Massachusetts, as well as later versions of the same image. The goals of the lesson are for students to understand the importance contemporaries attached to the event, how the event reflected and shaped colonial resistance to British authority, and how powerful images can focus popular attention and shape political views. Like the other lessons in this series, Imagining the Boston Massacre asks students to go beyond obvious questions about the literal accuracy of images to consider them as valuable sources for understanding how artists and their audiences understood the events depicted. Suggested Grade Level Middle and High School Recommended Time Two +/- fifty minute class periods Objectives and Essential Questions At the conclusion of the lesson, students will: • understand how the artists and their audiences understood the events of March 5, 1770; • understand how the Boston Massacre contributed to the growth of Revolutionary sentiment by stirring popular outrage at the British army and the British ministry; • develop skills needed to analyze and interpret visual images through close comparison of similar, but not identical, images; and • understand how the publication of dramatic images reflects and shapes popular opinion.

  • The Boston Massacre: a Behind-The-Scenes Look at Paul Revere's Most Famous Engraving
    The Boston Massacre: A Behind-the-Scenes Look At Paul Revere's Most Famous Engraving Library of Congress When Paul Revere first began selling his color prints of "The Bloody Massacre perpetrated in King Street" in Boston, he was doing what any like-minded patriot with his talents in 1770 would have done. Only, Paul Revere did it faster and more expeditiously than anyone else, including two other artist-engravers who also issued prints of the Massacre that year. It is unlikely that Revere was a witness to the dramatic events of March 5, but his plagiarized depiction of Pelham’s engraving resonated among Americans. He capitalized on the Boston Massacre, widely circulating an effective piece of anti-British propaganda. Twenty-one days before Revere’s engraving was released—on the night of March 5, 1770—British soldiers had killed five Bostonians. Precipitating the event known as the Boston Massacre was a mob of men and boys taunting a sentry standing guard at the city's customhouse. When other British soldiers came to the sentry's support, a free-for-all ensued and shots were fired into the crowd. Three died on the spot, a fourth within the hour, and a fifth died several days later. Six others were wounded. The presence of British troops in Boston had long been a sore point among Boston's radical politicians. Paul Revere wasted no time in capitalizing on the Massacre to highlight British tyranny and stir up anti-British sentiment among his fellow colonists. Revere's historic engraving is long on political propaganda and short on accuracy or aesthetics.

Because the work did not depict a patron and it was intended for an artistic audience, Boy with a Squirrel challenges the functionality of traditional portraiture in mid-eighteenth century colonial America. In Boy with a Squirrel, Copley uses form, iconography, and composition as a way to assert to his English counterparts his belonging to the London art community, showcasing his knowledge and even mastery of British and continental traditions. Copley communicates his membership in the London art public through his use through the formal lexicon of his desired audience, effectively Anglicizing his forms.
