Summary
Cotton Mather was one of early America's foremost consumers of early modern intellectual developments. The author of treatises on medicine, science, and music also wrote America's first Bible commentary, the Biblia Americana. This work integrates his reading of early modern critical historical thought, philosophy, theology, and science with his interpretation of the Bible, and especially with regard to the great Reformation doctrines traceable to the letters of the Apostle Paul.
