Discussion Great Awakening
Q What was the Great Awakening? What ideas did Edwards and Whitefield preach? How did the revivalism of the Great Awakening turn political? What is the legacy of the Great Awakening?
The Great Awakening had been the period when attempts had been made to revive the element of religion as well as evangelization of individuals (Baring, 2019). This is because there had been more emphasis laid on secular rationalism rather than on intellectual/scientific reasoning/awakening. Therefore, there had been growth of desires of individuals more on knowing about religion (Baring, 2019). The impact of the Great Awakening had been on English colonies. This period had been initiated from the 1730s (Baring, 2019). The period had ended till the 1740s (Baring, 2019).
