Those Mathers and the Puritan Commonwealth by Joseph M. M. Gray is a historical book that explores the role of the Mather family in the establishment and development of the Puritan Commonwealth in colonial America. The Mathers were a prominent family of Puritan ministers, scholars, and political leaders who played a significant role in shaping the religious and political landscape of New England in the 17th and 18th centuries.The book begins by tracing the origins of the Mather family in England and their migration to America in the early 17th century. It then examines the contributions of the Mathers to the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, their involvement in the Salem Witch Trials, and their efforts to establish a Puritan theocracy in New England.The author also explores the intellectual and cultural legacy of the Mathers, including their role in the development of American literature, science, and education. The book concludes with an analysis of the decline of the Puritan Commonwealth and the legacy of the Mathers in American history.Overall, Those Mathers and the Puritan Commonwealth provides a comprehensive and insightful account of one of the most influential families in early American history and their impact on the development of the Puritan Commonwealth. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of colonial America, the Puritan movement, and the intellectual and cultural roots of American society.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Prophets of the Soul, by Joseph M.
