Abstract

At the risk of oversimplifying recent Quaker developments in America, we could consider the 1950s "a decade of rediscovery and redefinition" among Friends. The 1952 World Gathering at Oxford, England, produced a renewed interest in rediscovering the historical roots of Quakerism, and in 1956 the Association of Evangelical Friends adopted a constitution. This was also a time in which several young Quaker scholars began to make contributions that would continue over several decades.
