Christian Romanticism was a response to social changes within nineteenthcentury American culture, including women's literacy, spiritual domesticity, and the idealization of childhood. This book examines the work of three artists of the first American landscape tradition Washington Alston, Thomas Cole, and Frederic Edwin Church and two clergymen Horace Bushnell and Henry Ward Beecher. It assesses their understanding of the artist as a social and moral teacher, the didactic role of art in society more generally, and a God who acts in history. The author finds that the art of Allston, Cole, and Church expressed and served the dominant middleclass religious ideology of the time Christian Romanticism. This distinguishes their work from more elitist and regional work.
