""Saints and Sectaries: Anne Hutchinson and the Antinomian Controversy in the Massachusetts Bay Colony"" is a historical non-fiction book written by Emery John Battis. The book delves into the life of Anne Hutchinson, a prominent figure in the early days of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Hutchinson was a devout Puritan who became a leader of a religious movement known as Antinomianism, which challenged the traditional religious beliefs of the colony. Battis explores the controversy that arose from Hutchinson's teachings, which were seen as a threat to the established religious order. The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to Hutchinson's trial and banishment from the colony in 1638. The author examines the complex religious and political landscape of the time, including the tensions between the Puritan leaders and the English Crown. Battis also delves into the role of gender in the controversy, as Hutchinson's outspokenness and leadership were seen as a challenge to the male-dominated religious and political structures of the colony. Overall, ""Saints and Sectaries"" provides a fascinating and insightful look into a pivotal moment in the history of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and the early years of American religious freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
