• W2178501842 abstract "On a balmy August morning in 1837, congregants of Zion Baptist Church in Newton County, Georgia, filed into a weathered clapboard meetinghouse their monthly Saturday conference. An undoubtedly restless couple sat in midst of assembly as a lengthy deposition was read. Elias Hale and his wife, both church members, together stood accused of Quarling and Disputeing each others word, but Brother Hale was singled out for attempting to shoot W. Thrasher, for Drawing his knife on D. Thrasher [and] R. Harper, for gathering a rock and threatning to mash W. Thrashers or some of his familys brains Out, Drawing his knife on T. Thrasher, for abuseing Sister Hale by puling hur about and spitting Ambeer [tobacco juice] in hur Eyes, and for sw[e]aring. Sister Hale had amassed her own list of arresting offenses: being thick [intimate] with [her husband's] brother and other Men and reports say Other Ca[l]ler[s], and Saying she were a man she would brew hur hands in D. Thrashers blood and Also Calling him a sonofabitch. The Hales neither denied charges nor gave satisfaction their malfeasance, so they found themselves excommunicated from fellowship of church. (1) The prosecution of this fractious pair calls attention to gendered complexity of southern evangelicalism. (2) Upholding standards of piety, humility, and sobriety, South's Baptists, Methodists, and Presbyterians regularly condemned brawling, cussing, and drinking of rough-and-tumble men as well as dueling, horseracing, and gallanting of elite planters. Southerners linked some of these vicious, vulgar, and occasionally fatal rituals to intangible ideas like honor, forming a nexus between white manhood and violent aggression that Sister Hale unwittingly embodied when she swore with ferocity, if she were a man. (3) The furrowed brows of faithful surely indicated their displeasure at such rude, unchristian spectacles. The frictional language of contrasts, centered on categories like elect and damned, saved and lost, or sacred and secular, held a privileged place in evangelical discourse, but such dichotomies have also deeply influenced historical narrative. Historians tend to see interactions of southern white men and evangelical Christianity through similar either-or lenses, in much of historiography an initially anemic (and sometimes feminized) evangelical culture clashes with an aggressively dominant, honor-driven masculine culture. Groundbreaking studies by Donald G. Mathews, Bertram Wyatt-Brown, Rhys Isaac, Christine Leigh Heyrman, and Cynthia Lynn Lyerly chronicle this dichotomy's genesis and evolution. They find evangelicalism on margins of eighteenth-century southern society acting as an antislavery, egalitarian, and countercultural movement regularly at odds with dominant social order ruled by elite planters and Anglican establishment. (4) The acidity of seemingly opposing forces, however, proves illusory at times. Several historians, including Wyatt-Brown, have lately offered nuanced revisions to old narrative, questioning features of counter-cultural thesis. Instead of feminine religious men, Jewel L. Spangler, Monica Najar, and Janet Moore Lindman identify an evangelical version of manhood that selectively accommodated aspects of dominant masculine culture and allowed white evangelical men to migrate inward from social fringes. Although operating within framework of dichotomy, these studies uncover a variety of male identities in eighteenth-century South, hinting that sacred-secular divide was not as rigid as previously imagined.(5) Many important studies of nineteenth-century South likewise tease out complicated issues raised when white manhood, evangelicalism, and southern culture intersected. Christine Leigh Heyrman even detects circumstances where the cultures of primal honor and evangelical Christianity interpenetrated, and their distinctiveness, once sharply etched, began to blur. …" @default.
