This book focuses on the works of America's premier colonial poet, Edward Taylor (1642-1729). Professor Rowe advances a theory which unites Taylor's exegetical discipline as a preacher with his creativity as a poet. This is the first work to draw on the collection of unpublished sermons, discovered in 1977, Upon the Types of the Old Testament.
