Reflections of a Mormon Historian: Leonard J. Arrington on the New Mormon History,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Conflict between matters of faith and historical truth has been a conundrum at the heart of doing and telling the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints (also known as the Mormon Church). Some of the best essays on that topic were written by Leonard J. Arrington, perhaps the bestknown member of the group of professionals who founded the New Mormon History of the late twentieth century. Now, Arringtons essay on history and the Mormons are collected in a single source work.Arrington rose to prominence during the socalled flowering of Mormon history. In a precedentbreaking move, he was made Church Historian in January 1972, the first professional historian to serve in the position.His ideas, as expressed in the essays collected here, helped to determine how Mormon history was written during the last part of the twentieth century. Arrington sought a middle way between the extremes of defending or attacking faith claimstwo forces that drove most nineteenthcentury and even much twentiethcentury writing on the Mormons. He not only adopted a neutral stance in his writing as LDS Historian, his name became connected inseparably with the New Mormon History because of his personality and the quality of his work.The fourteen essays offered here are autobiographical, reflective, analytical, personal, and prophetic. Together, they constitute an illuminating study of the challenges faced by all who study history and face the conflicts its telling involves.Supplementing the essays are a biographical sketch by historian Ronald W. Walker, a chronology of Arringtons life, and a detailed bibliography of his published works and speeches, prepared by David J. Whitaker. A personal tribute to Arrington is given by his daughter, historian Susan Arrington Madsen.The book has a bibliography and index. It is bound in rust linen cloth, has a foil stamped spine and a fullcolor dust jacket.
