The most thoroughly studied in the history, of the new world are the ministers and political leaders of seventeenth-century New England. According to the standard history of American philosophy, nowhere else in colonial America was "So much important attached to intellectual pursuits". According to many books and articles, New England’s leaders established the basic themes and preoccupations of an unfolding, dominant Puritan tradition in American intellectual life.
To take this approach to the New Englanders normally mean to start with the Puritans’ theological innovations and their distinctive ideas about the church-important subjects that we may not neglect. But in keeping with our examination of southern intellectual life, we may consider the original Puritans as carriers of European culture adjusting to New world circumstances. The New England colonies were the scenes of important episodes in the pursuit of widely understood ideals of civility and virtuosity.
The early setters of Massachusetts Bay included men of impressive education and influence in England. Besides the ninety or so learned ministers who came to Massachusetts church in the decade after 1629, There were political leaders like John Winthrop, an educated gentleman, lawyer, and official of the Crown before he journeyed to Boston. There men wrote and published extensively, reaching both New World and Old World audiences, and giving New England an atmosphere of intellectual earnestness.
We should not forget, however, that most New Englanders were less well educated. While few crafts men or farmers, let alone dependents and servants, left literary compositions to be analyzed, The in thinking often had a traditional superstitions quality. A tailor named John Dane, who emigrated in the late 1630s, left an account of his reasons for leaving England’that is filled with signs sexual confusion, economic frustrations , and religious hope — all name together in a decisive moment when he opened the Bible, told his father me first line he saw would settle his fate, and read the magical words; "come out from among them, touch no unclean thing, and I will be your God and you shall be my people. " One wonders what Dane thought of the careful sermons explaining the Bible that he heard in puritan churched.
Mean while, many settles had slighter religious commitments than Dane’s, as one clergyman learned in confronting folk along the coast who mocked that they had not come to the New world for religion. " Our main end was to catch fish. "
The author notes that in the seventeenth-century New England_______.
选项
A、Puritan tradition dominated political life.
B、intellectual interests were encouraged.
C、Politics benefited much from intellectual endeavors.
D、intellectual pursuits enjoyed a liberal environment
答案
B
解析
根据文中第一段的内容可知,十七世纪新英格兰的牧师和政治领导人对新世界的历史研究得最透彻。根据美国标准哲学史的记载,在美洲殖民地的其他地方没有人认为追求知识非常重要。根据一些书籍和文章中所载内容可知,新英格兰的统治者们在美国的精神生活中确定了基本的主题,并且优先发展了逐渐显露出来的,占据主流的清教徒传统。这可表明,作者认为在17世纪的新英格兰知识的重要性得到加强。
