Good Grief: Representations Of The Death Of Children In Early American Writings, Lisa M. Murray Jul 2001

Good Grief: Representations Of The Death Of Children In Early American Writings, Lisa M. Murray

English Theses & Dissertations

From the spare journals of John Winthrop and William Bradford to the Day of Doom exhortation of Michael Wigglesworth, one can see the basis for a commonly held image of the early Puritan colonists as being a stern, humorless community. This is not inconsistent with the theological underpinnings of the Puritans' faith.

Interviewee: Odessa Barret (born in Port Arthur, Texas, 1948)
