Abstract
The First Great Awakening was a powerful religious movement that swept across all British colonies in North America and coincided with the Enlightenment. It had a profound effect on all aspects of colonial life, greatly affecting religion, politics, and ideology. The Great Awakening laid the foundation of a future American nation. Unprecedented interest in religion led to the increase of colonial printed production — not only theological treatises, but colonial newspapers that published information about religious rallies.
