A Narrative Of The Controversy Between Jedediah Morse And The Author (1814)

""A Narrative of the Controversy between Jedediah Morse and the Author"" is a book written by Hannah Adams in 1814. The book is a detailed account of a public dispute between Adams and Morse, who was a prominent Congregationalist minister and geographer. The controversy began when Morse accused Adams of plagiarizing his work in her book ""A View of Religions."" Adams refuted Morse's claims and accused him of misrepresenting her work. She argued that her book was a comprehensive survey of world religions and that she had cited Morse's work appropriately. The dispute between the two continued for several years, with both parties publishing public letters and essays defending their positions. The book provides a valuable insight into the intellectual and cultural climate of early 19th-century America. It sheds light on the role of religion in American society and the challenges faced by female authors during this time period. The book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of American literature, religious studies, and gender studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
