    “ ‘They Made Gullah’: Modernist Primitivists and the Discovery and Creation of Sapelo Island, Georgia’s Gullah Community, 1915-1991” By Melissa L. Cooper A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in History written under the direction of Dr. Mia Bay and approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey January 2012 2012 Melissa L. Cooper ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “ ‘They Made Gullah’: Modernist Primitivists and the Discovery and Creation of Sapelo Island, Georgia’s Gullah Community, 1915-1991” by Melissa L. Cooper Dissertation Director: Dr. Mia Bay ABSTRACT: The history of Sapelo Islanders in published works reveals a complex cast of characters, each one working through ideas about racial distinction and inheritance; African culture and spirituality; and the legacy of slavery during the most turbulent years in America’s race-making history. Feuding social scientists, adventure seeking journalists, amateur folklorists, and other writers, initiated and shaped the perception of Sapelo Islanders’ distinct connection to Africa during the 1920s and 1930s, and labeled them “Gullah.” These researchers characterized the “Gullah,” as being uniquely connected to their African past, and as a population among whom African “survivals” were readily observable. This dissertation argues that the popular view of Sapelo Islanders’ “uniqueness” was the product of changing formulations about race and racial distinction in America. Consequently, the “discovery” of Sapelo Island’s Gullah folk was more a sign of times than an anthropological discovery. This dissertation interrogates the intellectual motives of the researchers and writers who have explored Sapelo Islanders in their works, and argues that the advent of American Modernism, the development of new social scientific theories and popular cultural works during the 1920s and 1930s, and other trends shaped their depictions.

Fleming ([email protected]) is a graduate student in religious studies at the University of California at Santa Barbara. In August 1877 the signers of the Declaration of Independence visited President Wilford Woodruff, asking for their temple work to be done. Woodruff quickly began this task; in addition, he performed the temple ordinances for a number of other prominent historical fig- ures. In what is often considered an addendum to the story, Woodruff set apart three of the individuals—Christopher Columbus, Benjamin Franklin, and John Wesley—as high priests without explaining why in his journals. Woodruff recalled that the signers said, “We laid the foun- dation of the government you now enjoy,”1 implying that their work played an important role in the Restoration of the gospel; the special distinction granted to Columbus, Franklin, and Wesley suggests that they perhaps played a particularly important role. Church members frequently cite the contributions of the Founding Fathers and Columbus to the Restoration, but much less has been said of Wesley. If we designate Columbus’s, Franklin’s, and Wesley’s contri- butions to the Restoration according to their major achievements, then Columbus’s achievement would be geographical (finding the New World), Franklin’s would be political (helping to found the United States), and Wesley’s would be religious (founding Methodism).

    The Second Great Awakening Charles Finney Preaching in Rochester New York, 1830 https://vimeo.com/349525075 Introduction • The Second Great Awakening was a Protestant revival movement during the early nineteenth century. • The movement began around 1790 and gained momentum by 1800. • After 1820, membership rose rapidly among Baptist and Methodist congregations, whose preachers led the movement. • The Second Great Awakening began to decline by 1870. It enrolled millions of new members and led to the formation of new denominations. https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-ushistory/chapter/the-second-great-awakening/ Introduction • Many leaders of the Second Great Awakening held to an Arminian theology, who believed that every person could be saved through revivals, repentance, and conversion. • Revivals were mass religious meetings featuring emotional preaching by evangelists such as the eccentric Lorenzo Dow. • The Second Great Awakening stimulated the establishment of many social reform movements by which many Christians of that era hoped to remedy the evils of society before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-ushistory/chapter/the-second-great-awakening/ Lorenzo Dow • Said to have preached to more people than any other preacher of his era. • Took what he believed to be a divine call and crossed the Atlantic Ocean to preach as a missionary to the Catholics of Ireland. • Preached in the Albany region of New York, against atheism, deism, Calvinism and Universalism. • He did not practice personal hygiene and his long hair and beard were described as “never having met a comb.” He usually owned one set of clothes: those that were on his back.

C. DEDICATED TO THE ITINERANT METHODIST PREACHERS OF NORTH CAROLINA ; PREFACE The life-story of Ivey, Dow, and Doub must be of con- tinued interest and value to all who appreciate heroic and unselfish service in men whose hearts burn with a master passion for God and humanity. Though separated in time and place and strikingly unlike in personal characteristics and temperament, these men responded to one common impulse. Each one is somewhat typical of a class. George Washington Ivey holds a high place among the golden-hearted who have spent their lives in the obscurity of the country circuit Lorenzo Dow rides well to the front of those gospel mes- sengers whose long journeys carried them to the borders of human habitation; Peter Doub shines as a star of the first magnitude among the sturdy Methodist itin- erants in an age that cared little for men in soft raiment. A prophet's message and a preacher's conscience kept each to his distinctive task on the long^ unbroken jour- ney. Hearts afiame could not rest.

May recently suggested that for the study and understanding of American culture, the recovery of American religious history may well be the most important achievement of the last thirty years. A vast and crucial area of American experience has been rescued from neglect and misunder­ standing. Puritanism, Edwardsian Calvinism, revivalism, liberal­ ism, modernism, and the social gospel have all been brought down out of the attic and put back in the historical front parlor.^ Since Ohio shared in the western origins of modern revivalism in the canç meetings of the Second Great Awakening and in each of its major develop­ ments during the nineteenth century, it is hoped that the present in­ vestigation might make some contribution to the recovery of this facet of American religious history. Until the past decade, professional revivalism rarely has been the subject of objective research. Its proponents lauded its evangelists and their methods and overestimated its impact. Its critics exaggerated its bizarre aspects and underestimated its significance. Three recent studies have marked a new departure in the analysis and evaluation of revivalism--Timothy L.

(2016). “Engines of Abolition: The Second Great Awakening, Higher Education, and Slavery in the American Northwest." Retrieved from http://krex.ksu.edu Abstract & Keywords The essay “Engines of Abolition: The Second Great Awakening, Higher Education, and Slavery in the American Northwest” analyzes the link between religious revivalism, higher education, and abolitionist tendencies in the states of the former Northwest Territory. It will argue that fired with the moral mandates of the Second Great Awakening, institutions of higher learning founded by evangelical abolitionists often became centers of anti-slavery sentiment. In the years prior to the American Civil War, universities, colleges, and seminaries founded during the Second Great Awakening developed a number of characteristics that profoundly influenced the course of the abolitionist movement. This essay relies on newspaper articles, university-sponsored histories, writings by Southern intellectuals, sermons from revivalist ministers, lectures from university professors, and autobiographies from prominent participants
