Inventing the "Great Awakening"
Lambert argues that the Great Awakening was an invention, but it was one invented by evangelicals at the time, not later in the 19th century, as other historians have argued. He does not believe it was a false invention: people found meaning in isolated revivals and spread that enthusiasm to others. There was an active promotion, seen by many as a need to reverse spiritual decline. Others at the time contested the idea that there was a universal movement. "American revivalists forged links between local awakenings to create an intercolonial revival" (p. 151). Later in the 19th century, the GA was recast to suit revivalists' purposes.
