Synopsis
This publication about historic sources of Abraham Kuyper in America contains news, comments and articles about the visit of the famous Dutch theologian and statesman to the United States of America in 1898. He delivered lectures about Calvinism, the so called ‘Stone Lectures,’ at Princeton’s Theological Seminary and was granted a honorary doctorate in Laws after he went on a triumphalistic tour along the settlements of Dutch immigrants in Michigan and Iowa.
Abraham Kuyper’s ideology of neocalvinism is still famous in our secular age and inspires a lot of people around the globe. His lectures about Calvinism have been translated into many languages and studied by theologians, philosophers and historians in countries like Hungary, United Kingdom, South Africa, South Korea, The Netherlands, but also in the United States of America, Canada and Australia.
