520 _a"New England and the Bavarian Illuminati" by Vernon Stauffer is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work examines the decline of Puritanism and the influence of the European Illuminati in New England during the late 18th century, focusing particularly on the political and religious tensions of the time. Stauffer explores themes of ideological conflict, societal changes following the American Revolution, and the reaction against established religious institutions. The opening of the text highlights the tumultuous nature of New England life at the close of the 18th century, marked by anxiety and diverse clashing interests. Stauffer attributes a pervasive spirit of apprehension to various factors, including the rising influence of dissenting thought and political turbulence. He introduces the Reverend Jedediah Morse's shocking sermons in 1798, which tied the societal upheaval to the supposed threat of the Illuminati infiltrating American society. The narrative sets the stage for an exploration of how these fears, although later seen as unfounded, resonated deeply within the populace and influenced the prevailing political and religious discourse.
