  • Joseph Smith: Rough Rolling Stone, a Cultural Biography of Mormonism’S Founder
    Book Reviews 255 Book Reviews RICHARD LYMAN BUSHMAN, Joseph Smith: Rough Rolling Stone, A Cultural Biography of Mormonism’s Founder. (New York: Knopf, 2005. Notes, Bibliography, Photographs, Maps, Index. $35.00 hardback.) Reviewed by Thomas G. Alexander, who is the Lemuel Hardison Redd Jr. Professor Emeritus of Western American History at Brigham Young University. The Gouverneur Morris Professor of History, Emeritus, at Columbia University, Richard Bushman, previously published Joseph Smith and the Beginnings of Mormonism (1984) and such works in colonial and early national American history as From Puritan to Yankee: Character and Social Order in Connecticut, 1690–1795 (1967); King and People in Provincial Massachusetts (1985); and The Refinement of America: Persons, Houses, Cities (1992). Now we have his long-awaited, full-length biography of Joseph Smith. Scholars and lay persons alike have waited for years for a biography of Joseph Smith that treated him as a believing religious leader, consid- ered the extensive primary and secondary sources available, and did not shy from addressing controversial topics. Bushman offers all of those things, thus eclipsing previous works such as George Q. Cannon’s lauda- tory and uncritical Life of Joseph Smith, the Prophet (Salt Lake City: Juvenile Instructor, 1888); John Henry Evans’s topically organized Joseph Smith, An American Prophet (New York: Macmillan, 1933); Fawn M. Brodie’s naturalistically interpreted No Man Knows My History, The Life of Joseph Smith, the Mormon Prophet (New York: Knopf, 1945, 1971); and Donna Hill’s admirable effort, Joseph Smith: The First Mormon (Garden City, New York: Doubleday, 1977). The careful reader is struck by a number of significant features of this 256 Mormon Historical Studies book.

    International Journal of Religion November 2020 Volume: 1 | Number 1 | pp. 135 – 149 ISSN: 2633-352X (Print) | ISSN: 2633-3538 (Online) journals.tplondon.com/ijor First Submitted: 31 July 2020 Accepted: 1 November 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33182/ijor.v1i1.1104 Tar & Feathers: Agnotology, Dissent, and Queer Mormon History Nerida Bullock1 Abstract In 2014 the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) updated their official website to include information about the polygamy/polyandry practiced by Joseph Smith, their founder and prophet, and his many wives. The admission by the LDS Church reconciles the tension between information that had become readily available online since the 1990s and church- sanctioned narratives that obscured Smith’s polygamy while concurrently focusing on the polygyny of Brigham Young, Smith’s successor. This paper entwines queer theory with Robert Proctor’s concept of agnotology—a term used to describe the epistemology of ignorance, to consider dissent from two interrelated perspectives: 1) how dissent from feminists and historians within the LDS Church challenged (mis)constructions of Mormon history, and; 2) how the Mormon practice of polygamy in the late nineteenth century dissented from Western sexual mores that conflated monogamy with Whiteness, democracy and social progression in the newly formed American Republic. Keywords: Mormon polygamy; Agnotology; Polyandry; Queer theology; ignorance; Joseph Smith; The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint. Introduction In 1945, acclaimed historian Fawn Brodie published a secular biography on the enigmatic founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), Joseph Smith.2 To secular historians and book critics, No Man Knows My History (1945) is considered one of the best scholarly books on early Mormonism of all times (Bringhurst, 1997, 1989; Reston, 2012).
