Autorenporträt
Samuel Davies (1723-1761) was a Presbyterian preacher in colonial British America who helped lead the Southern phase of the Great Awakening. Davies was a leading proponent of religious tolerance and social justice--particularly in his encouragement of the education of slaves in accordance with their equal standing in heaven. He raised funds in England for the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University), which he served as its fourth president. His work during the Great Awakening centered at Hanover, Virginia, where he became the first moderator of the first presbytery of Virginia. He further enhanced his reputation by defending Dissenters in court and was considered the outstanding preacher of his day.
