OSHATZ, M., Slavery and Sin. The Fight against Slavery and the Rise of Liberal Protestantism. Oxford University Press, 2011. 200p. Hardback. Political theology is back. In this fresh first book, Molly Oshatz gives us a cogent and original portrayal of the debate among antebellum theologians and ministers over the Bible as a warrant for slavery. She also lucidly demonstrates how the moderate antislavery theologians in this high-stakes battle were forced to originate the contours of liberal Protestantism. In telling a fascinating tale of thinkers making conceptual choices in a new discursive world, Oshatz offers us a genuine life of American minds. -Charles Capper, author of Margaret Fuller: An American Romantic Life (Publisher's information). € 91.04 (New) (Printed on Demand) (approx. delivery time: 4 weeks) ISBN: 9780199751686
