Excerpt from Biographical Sketch of Joel Munsell Albany at that time was in a transition state, when the customs of the old Dutch inhabitants were yielding to New England in dueness, and New England incomers were gaining a foothold in business and in political and social distinction. Ofew emigrants from the Emerald Isle could have been here at that time, since it was a common occurrence for the boys on the 17th of March to drag an effigy of St. Patrick through the muddy streets.

The Rude Hand of Innovation
Author: David G. Hackett
Publisher: New York : Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0195065131
Category : Albany (N.Y.)
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
This path-breaking study analyzes the social and religious transformation of Albany, New York, from the town's colonial origins through industrialization in the early nineteenth century. Rather than see the transformation of traditional societies as a process of modernization, Hackett adopts a broader conception of religion as a cultural system and argues that culture influences social order differently in different historical periods. During most of Albany's colonial period, the Dutch townspeople absorbed British people and customs into their Calvinist way of life. Following the Revolution, large scale immigration, urbanization, and the initial spurt of an industrial economy transformed Albany into a bustling commercial center. At the same time new political and religious ideologies that disagreed among themselves yet together advocated economic growth, democracy, education, and individual rights, challenged and finally replaced Calvinism. Drawing on the resources of sociology, social history, and religion, this study illuminates not only the social history of Albany but also presents a new interpretation of the relationship between religion and social order in American history.
