Some Phases Of Sexual Morality And Church Discipline In Colonial New England is a non-fiction book written by Charles Francis Adams. It explores the topic of sexual morality and church discipline in colonial New England, focusing on the period between the 17th and 18th centuries. The book examines the strict moral codes and religious beliefs that governed colonial society, particularly regarding sexuality and the role of the church in regulating sexual behavior. Adams delves into the historical and cultural context of the time, exploring the ways in which the Puritan faith shaped attitudes towards sex and sexuality. He also discusses the various forms of punishment and discipline that were used by the church to enforce its moral codes, including public shaming, excommunication, and even physical punishment. Through detailed analysis of primary source materials such as court records and sermons, Adams provides a comprehensive look at the complex and often contradictory attitudes towards sex and morality in colonial New England. Overall, Some Phases Of Sexual Morality And Church Discipline In Colonial New England is a fascinating and informative exploration of a little-known aspect of American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
