Historian and archivist Devin C. Manzullo-Thomas’s Exhibiting Evangelicalism is the first work dedicated to the history of evangelical history museums in the United States, standing as a call to action for public historians whose field has often ignored these museums because of their religious nature. This book tells a history of the public interpretation of conservative Protestant1 religious pasts “in the hopes that public historians will learn from and about the distinctive ways in which a particular segment of America’s faithful have crafted and deployed a usable past” (3). An installment in the series Public History in Historical Perspective from University of Massachusetts Press, Exhibiting Evangelicalism is a timely and necessary intervention for the discipline. Manzullo-Thomas begins his inquiry in the 1930s with the Billy Sunday Home and concludes with Museum of the Bible (MOTB) in the present to argue that conservative Protestant Christians developed ideologies about preserving the past for various ends, and terms this practice the construction of “evangelical heritage” (3). Manzullo-Thomas deploys evangelical heritage as a conceptual framework, involving a collection of myths, traditions, and narratives about the past that are constructed, consumed, and disseminated in public spaces to represent who evangelicals are in the present and who they should be in the future. Manzullo-Thomas argues that for conservative Protestants, this evangelical heritage is both instrumental and inspirational, as well as ultimately a means to build community and contribute to the broader goal of conversion.
历史学家和档案保管员Devin C. Manzullo-Thomas的《展示福音主义》是第一部致力于美国福音派历史博物馆历史的作品,它呼吁公共历史学家采取行动,因为这些博物馆的宗教性质,他们经常忽视这些博物馆。这本书讲述了对保守的新教宗教历史的公众解释的历史,“希望公共历史学家能够学习并了解美国信徒的特定部分精心制作和运用有用的过去的独特方式”(3)。马萨诸塞州大学出版社历史视角中的公共历史系列的一部分,展示福音主义是对该学科的及时和必要的干预。Manzullo-Thomas从20世纪30年代的比利星期日之家开始他的调查,并以现在的圣经博物馆(MOTB)结束,他认为保守的新教基督徒发展了关于为各种目的保存过去的意识形态,并将这种实践称为“福音遗产”的构建(3)。Manzullo-Thomas将福音遗产作为一个概念框架,包括关于过去的神话,传统和叙述的集合。在公共空间中被消费和传播,以代表福音派现在是什么样的人,未来应该是什么样的人。曼祖洛-托马斯认为,对于保守的新教徒来说,这种福音遗产既是工具,也是鼓舞人心的,最终也是建立社区和促进更广泛的皈依目标的一种手段。

abstract:A memorial in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park in Northern California continued to honor the name of Madison Grant (1865–1937) until 2021. De Forest Grant (Madison’s younger brother), John D. Rockefeller Jr., the New York Zoological Society, and others dedicated the monument in 1948. Madison Grant’s most well-known book, The Passing of the Great Race (1916), became the basis for monumental atrocities leading up to and during World War II. This article explores Grant’s racist legacy and claims he made that successfully convinced lawmakers to pass legislation restricting the rights of non-White peoples and immigrants. His book and the ideas it contained continue to serve as a basis for hate and exclusion in the United States.

abstract:James B. Wheeler, a career Park Ranger/Interpreter with the National Park Service and interpreter in North Coast Redwoods State Parks, wrote a letter before retiring in 2017 to his superiors and other Parks employees about Madison Grant’s history, positive and negative. He asked for an adjustment to the stories told by the Prairie Creek memorial to Grant and the Founders Tree monument. His plea went unheard at the time, but it is central to the victory for historical truth and human decency that was achieved in more recent years. It is included here in its entirety as a necessary historical document (lightly edited for clarity and grammatical consistency).
