Sommario/riassunto

À l'origine de ce travail, il y a un besoin personnel de l'auteur de faire le point sur ses propres convictions. Après plus de trente années de lectures, d'échanges d'idées, de débats parfois animés et de réflexions personnelles, il lui a semblé important de se situer spirituellement. Sans méconnaître que les religions peuvent avoir une importance considérable pour un bon nombre de personnes, il défend l'idée qu'il est possible, pour les athées, de poursuivre un cheminement spirituel tout aussi riche et valorisant. Point n'est besoin de croire en un Dieu quelconque pour donner un sens à sa vi

Sommario/riassunto

The ""Businessmen's Revival"" was a religious revival that unfolded in the wake of the 1857 market crash among white, middle-class



Protestants. Delving into the religious history of Boston in the 1850's, John Corrigan gives an imaginative and wide-ranging interpretive study of the revival's significance.
