Exile and Kingdom: History and Apocalypse in the Puritan Migration to America - Cambridge Studies in Early Modern British History
Zakai, Avihu (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
By tracing the ideological origins of the Puritan migration within the context of the English apocalyptic tradition, Dr Zakai shows how Puritans transformed the premises of that tradition by rejecting the notion of England as God's elect nation and by conferring that title upon the American wilderness.
