Identifying the Image of God: Radical Christians and Nonviolent Power in the Antebellum United States - Religion in America
McKanan, Dan (Assistant Professor of Theology, St. John's University, Minnesota, Assistant Professor of Theology, St. John's University, Minnesota)
Between 1820 and 1860, American social reformers pioneered a "politics of identification", which invited people to identify with society's victims, seeing in their sufferings the image of God. This work traces this idea through various kinds of literature, from novels to slave narratives.
