THE ATHENS OF AMERICA / O'CONNOR, THOMAS H. : C2006
TABLE OF CONTENTS / INHALTSVERZEICHNIS
A NEW DAY DAWNING
FROM TOWN TO CITY
RESHAPING A COMMUNITY
AN END TO PAIN AND SUFFERING
THE GRECIAN MODEL
PROGRESS AND POPERY
A NEW GENERATION
THE POLITICS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
DIESES SCHRIFTSTUECK WURDE MASCHINELL ERZEUGT.
Many people are generally familiar with
the fact that Boston was once known as "the
Athens of America." Very few, however, are
clear about exactly why, except for their
recollections of the famous writers and
poets who gave the city a reputation for
literature and learning.
In this book, historian Thomas H.
O'Connor sets the matter straight by show¬
ing that Boston's eminence during the first
half of the nineteenth century was the re¬
sult of a much broader community effort.
After the nation emerged from its successful
struggle for independence, most
visualized their city not only as the Cradle
of Liberty, but also as the new world's
Cradle of Civilization.
According to O'Connor, a leadership
elite, composed of men of prominent fam¬
ily background, Unitarian beliefs, liberal
education, and managerial experience in a
variety of enterprises, used their personal
talents and substantial financial resources to
promote the cultural, intellectual, and hu¬
manitarian interests of Boston to the point
where it would be the envy of the nation.
Not only did writers, scholars, and philoso¬
phers see themselves as part of this process,
but so did physicians and lawyers, ministers
and teachers, merchants and businessmen,
mechanics and artisans, all involved in
creating a well-ordered city whose citizens
would be committed to the ideals of social
progress and personal perfectibility.
Designed for the general reader and the
historical enthusiast, The Athens of America
is an interpretive synthesis that explores
the numerous
have concentrated on individual subjects
and personalities, and draws their various
conclusions into a single comprehensive
narrative. |
