Abstract:

Although Arendt rejects all manifestations of what she calls “the absolute,” the way that theology trumps politics, she yet overlooks the theological basis of one of her most cherished models of political origins, the story of the Mayflower Compact. Arendt sees the Mayflower Compact as affording a basis for a community that is joined only through mutual promising, allowing a maximal amount of individualism and struggle within a collectively determined entity. Yet she downplays the role that theology serves in supporting this compact. In overlooking the connection between the Pilgrim’s ideology

Abstract:

Le Mayflower Compact, rédigé par les premiers colons de Nouvelle-Angleterre en 1620, est l’un des textes fondateurs de l’histoire nord-américaine. Voir dans ce document l’origine de la démocratie américaine tient, depuis longtemps, du lieu commun. Faut-il, comme le soutient entre autres André Kaspi dans un ouvrage destiné au grand public, le considérer comme un «premier pas vers une démocratie égalitariste» ? C’est sur quoi s’interroge Lauric Henneton par le biais d’une relecture contextualisée. Plus largement, il soulève le problème d’un passé érigé en mythologie nationale sujette à de nombre

Abstract:

Pierwsi europejscy osadnicy przybywający do Ameryki pod przewodnictwem tzw. ojców pielgrzymów byli przez nich utrzymywani w przeświadczeniu, że Bóg i opatrzność Boska sprzyja ich życiu i pracy na nowej ziemi. Osadnicy nie tylko mieli się modlić, ale co ważniejsze, ciężko pracować i przestrzegać zasad, gdyż było to warunkiem ich zbawienia. Pierwsze zasady zostały spisane jako Mayflower Compact i były kontynuowane w kolonialnych kartach praw i przywilejów. W swych kazaniach John Winthrop i Roger Williams także podkreślali, że Bóg pomaga tym, którzy przestrzegają zasad religijnych i prawa. Osadni

Abstract:

Freedom in America is a collection of 95 documents from U.S. history that define and discuss the concept and practice of freedom. From the Charter of Virginia (1606) and the Mayflower Compact (1620) to speeches by Ronald Reagan (Tear Down This Wall, 1987) and Bill Clinton (Religious Liberty in America, 1995), students can explore through these primary sources how Americans' ideas about freedom, liberty, and justice have changed through the course of four centuries. After a one-page introduction, in which Kenneth Bridges stresses that despite all criticism, the documents' authors "exude a treme

Abstract:

Despite the demands of the Council of Trent, the Baroque sought not so much to teach (docere) but to inspire (movere) and to allure (delectare). Owing to the predominance of this aesthetic principle, the Baroque preserved human integrity in a period when the Renaissance worldview utterly collapsed, when professional disciplines became compartmentalized, when the infinitely small and great worlds revealed themselves through the microscope and the telescope, and when anatomists and physiologists went inside the human body. Only in its sensual aspect is Baroque art seemingly opposed to the ration

Abstract:

Idee kryjące się za Przymierzem przyczyniły się do ukształtowania specyficznego i wręcz rewolucyjnego sposobu myślenia o ustroju Stanów Zjednoczonych. Mało kto kwestionuje dziś znaczenie Przymierza jako jednego z pierwszych ziaren, które zasiane w siedemnastowiecznej kolonii wydały plon w postaci tekstu Konstytucji z 1787 r. Można jednak zadać jeszcze pytanie o dzisiejsze nawiązywanie do Mayflower Compact. Odwołania takie pojawiają się nieczęsto, jednak co jakiś czas Sąd Najwyższy Stanów Zjednoczonych przywołuje w swych orzeczeniach Przymierze. Stosowne odwołania pojawiają się jednak w nieoczekiwanym kontekście interpretacji, tzw. establishment clause zawartej w pierwszej poprawce do Konstytucji. Wspomniana klauzula brzmi: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof („Kongres nie może wydawać żadnego prawa dotyczącego ustanowienia religii bądź zabraniającego jej swobodnego wyznawania”). Analiza orzecznictwa Sądu Najwyższego zwraca uwagę, gdyż okazuje się, że współczesne przywołania Przymierza przez najwyższy sąd federalny koncentrują się wokół wątku religijnego, nie zaś na problemie samorządności i samostanowienia wspólnoty51. Być może jest to swojego rodzaju signum temporis wobec programowego ,,zapominania” przez część amerykańskich elit politycznych, że Stany Zjednoczone zbudowane zostały na argumencie teoretycznym zaczerpniętym wprost z teologii chrześcijańskiej, samo Przymierze Mayflower nie miałoby żadnego sensu dla jego sygnatariuszy, gdyby gwarantem jego przestrzegania nie był Bóg, jego rękojmią głęboka wiara kolonistów, a rozdział państwa od kościoła miał w swej istocie chronić religię przed arbitralną ingerencją państwa, a nie rugować ją z przestrzeni publicznej.

Abstract:

By 1617 members of the congregation discussed moving. The challenges of living in Leiden remained great. They also feared the Netherlands becoming engaged in war with Spain. After considerable discussion, the congregation decided to emigrate, and to seek a new home in North America. Representatives of the congregation sought a particular patent from the Virginia Company of London. Because the venture would be costly, they negotiated with investors led by Thomas Weston. The investors would put up most of the money. The settlers themselves would work for seven years with income from their effort paying off the investors. When one of the ships engaged for the voyage, the Speedwell, proved unseaworthy, most of the intended colonists crowded onto the Mayflower. Conditions forced them to settle at Cape Cod. Being outside the area specified in the patent, the passengers drew up and signed the Mayflower Compact, setting terms for self-government.

Abstract:

These curricula proudly distinguish themselves from other histories of America; they intend, as the Abeka textbook puts it, to offer “uplifting history texts,” allowing students to understand “its traditional values.” This chapter explores these curricula’s commitment to providential history as English colonies founded the Christian nation. This story of unquestionable religious fervor and Christian virtue relies on nineteenth-century national origin myths. The chapter explores the central arguments used to make this case. They reject Jamestown because the colony adopted the unchristian practice of sharing goods and was no model of virtue. They point to the Massachusetts colonies as the establishment of a Christian city on a hill and herald the Mayflower Compact as the source of the subsequent founding documents of the new nation. They disparage or exclude other colonies and native peoples.
