   http://www.cslib.org/gov/winthropj.htm
   
   Extractions: Died: April 5, 1676, Boston, Massachusetts John Winthrop, often known as "John Winthrop, Junior" or "the Younger", was the eldest son of John Winthrop, first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and Mary Forth, his first wife. His parents were wealthy, and in 1622, at age 16, he was sent to Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland, for a general education. Two years later, he returned to England and studied law until 1627, when he went to sea, first to France as a secretary to a captain on a military expedition, then to Turkey, Italy, and Holland as a regular traveler. When he came home to England in August of 1629, he found that his father was preparing to leave for America as the governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. His father left in the spring of 1630, and John stayed behind to care for his stepmother, Martha (Tyndal) Winthrop, and the Winthrop children, as well as his father's businesses. On February 8, 1630/1, he married his cousin Martha Fones, daughter of Thomas and Anne (Winthrop) Fones of London. Some of their correspondence after marriage was in code, and not deciphered until almost three centuries later.

   Extractions: John Winthrop was born in Groton, Suffolk, England in 1588. Educated at Cambridge University he practised law in London but was persecuted for his Puritan religious beliefs. Winthrop thought that the Church of England should abolish bishops, ecclesiastical courts and other relics of Roman Catholicism such as kneeling and the use of priestly vestment and altars. The Separatists also believed that the government was too tolerant towards those who were guilty of adultery, drunkenness and breaching the Sabbath.

    Extractions: John Winthrop Home Aesthetic Education John Winthrop Cotton Mather Benjamin Franklin Alexander Hamilton Roosevelt VS British Colonialism John Winthrop and the Founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony American System Part 2 of The Aesthetic Education of America The story of the Aesthetical Education of America starts in 1630 with the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, although colonies had been previously established in Virginia and in New England at Plymouth Rock. The founding of Massachusetts Bay marked the beginning of a remarkable development of the principles of self-government. Lawfully, this colony was also the first society in the world to require universal education of its populace. John Winthrop was the colony's most influential founder. Born in 1588, the son of a wealthy landowner, he was educated for two years at Trinity College, Cambridge. Elected the first governor, in October 1629, before the colonists set sail from England, he held office for approximately twelve years, until his death in 1649. More important than his official position, however, was his intellectual leadership. Winthrop was a member of the Puritan faction within the established Church of England. In 1629, he wrote his ``Arguments for the Plantation of New England,'' in which he explained why a wealthy man like himself would choose to abandon his position in England, for a place in the wilderness. In this statement, Winthrop exposed an anti-human outlook widespread in England:

    Extractions: While en route to the New World on board the Arabella, John Winthrop wrote a sermon entitled "A Model of Christian Charity," in which he outlined the purposes of God for New England. Winthrop had a deep understanding of God's divine purposes for the colony. "We shall be a city set on a hill," he said of Boston - where the church was the center of life during those early years of the city's history. He described a harmonious Christian community whose laws and government would logically proceed from a godly and purposeful arrangement. John Winthrop also believed that this new form of government would help bring about a "Golden Age" and that one day all the nations of the world would copy this form of government: "We shall find that the God of Israel shall be among us, when ten of us shall be able to resist a thousand of our enemies; when He shall make us a praise and glory that men shall say of succeeding plantations, 'the Lord make it like that of New England.'" But Winthrop also gave a warning: "The eyes of all people are upon us, so that if we deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause us to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a byword through the world."

    Extractions: John and Thomasine Winthrop John Winthrop and the Origins of American Multiculturalism: A Plea Against Balkanization In this lengthy essay, Dr. David R. Williams, Professor of English at George Mason University, argues that in our efforts to broaden the traditional canon of American Literature we need to be careful not to throw out authors just because they are dead white males associated with patriarchy and authoritarianism. Instead, he says, when possible we need to broaden our readings of the old, traditional canon. He focuses on John Winthrop's "Christian Charity" speech to illustrate his point. Despite its pleas for unity and conformity, this speech also embraces diversity. Throughout this essay, Williams explores the pro-diversity side of Winthrop.(jr) The Winthrop Papers The Massachusetts Historical Society is working to publish on the Web historically significant documents relating to the Winthrop family. From this site you can access the papers that have been put into html so far. This site is a valuable resource for anyone researching John Winthrop.(jr) The American Sense of Puritan The American Studies program at University of Virginia commissioned the writing of a book called The American Sense of the Puritan, by Scott Atkins. The book is divided into three sections: 1) Two Histories: Context and Development (of the Puritans and Massachusetts Bay Colony), 2) Tradition as Cultural Tool, and 3) Pilgrims and Puritans in the U.S. Capitol. The entire text is included on this site.(jr)

He was interested in natural phenomena of all sorts. He had a telescope and he observed the heavens, though not as a professional astronomer. He was the first scientific investigator of note in British North America. He was a devoted student of hermetic philosophy with the reputation of being an adept. He collected an extensive library on alchemy.
