This provocative study of the life and work of Jonathan Edwards argues that although Edwards was very much a figure of the Enlightenment, he was also a discerning critic of it, able to use Enlightenment thought in his theology without yielding to its mechanistic and individualistic tendencies. Edward's radical position stood as a corrective to the overall impact of the Enlightenment on America. Recent studies of Jonathan Edwards have assessed his views only as a historical phenomenon. In this book, Jenson examines his views not only by their originality or power or historical fruitfulness, but by their intention of truth, asking not only `Why was Edwards great?' but `Was Edwards right?'.
