Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores sociological interpretations of religious revivals, studying particular examples from history to demonstrate prevalent traits of such revivals. The author argues that revivals tend to develop sympathetic likemindedness and impulsive social action, especially within populations that have minimal inhibitory control. They also involve massing in a psychological crowd, heightening suggestibility and fostering emotional contagion. Nervous instability, imitativeness, and lack of inhibitive control are identified as primitive traits which often characterise those most affected by revivals. By applying psychological principles to historical examples, this book provides new insights into the nature and impact of religious revivals and their significance in the broader context of social movements and religious evolution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330499863_0
