| Abstract | Radical Pietism provided the religious base for many communitarian settlements in North America from the late 17th through the early 19th centuries, especially those derived from German immigration. Following a brief statement of its character, the essay will sketch the formation of the leading German-American settlements, and then show their rootage in Radical Pietism: Society of the Woman in the Wilderness; Irenia; The Epharata Community; The Harmony Society; Blooming Grove; Bethel and Aurora; The Society of Separatists of Zoar; Community of True Inspiration |
