Description
William Miller based his prediction of the second coming of Christ and the end of the world "about the year 1843" on a Biblical prophecy in the book of Daniel. Miller's proclamation fostered several new religious movements, including Seventh-day Adventists.
The millennial myth in Amercan life, as manifested in Millerism, has proven so resilient that some scholars have come to consider it central to the nation's self-understanding. The 1984 conference on "Millerism and the Millenarian Mind in 19th Century America," from which this volume resulted, marked a new direction in Millerite studies, bringing together for the first time both Adventist and non-Adventist scholars interested in critically evaluating the Millerite experience and its place in American history.
