- W2018766144 abstract "WHEN JOHN ADAMS REFLECTED on how future historians would remember his cousin Samuel, he was filled with forebodings. Samuel Adams's character will never be accurately known to posterity, he wrote, as it was never sufficiently known to its own age. And on October 3, I 803, the day after Samuel Adams's death, a Salem clergyman confided very similar observations to his diary. Adams seemed to have impenetrable secrecy, the Reverend William Bentley claimed; he was feared by his enemies yet remained too secret to be loved by his friends.' The accuracy of these statements is open to question. They are nonetheless arresting because both observers knew Samuel Adams in life, yet found in him an elusiveness that has evaded his biographers. As the nation moved further from Samuel Adams's lifetime, portraits of him became increasingly confident, even stereotypic, and hostile. There could be no better occasion than this Bicentennial year to re-examine the standard interpretation of Adams, to see how it evolved, to evaluate it against historical evidence, and to reflect on whatever dissonance emerges. The results are important because they open the way for a far different understanding of Adams and, beyond that, of the curious way Americans have recalled their revolutionary past." @default.
