Abstract

This volume of Wesley and Methodist Studies has some new features that we hope readers will welcome. It is our first-ever Special Issue with all the articles focusing on a common theme: ‘Methodism and Race’. It is a further development of the approach we took in volumes 3 (2011), 4 (2012), and 12/2 (2020), which respectively include papers from the 2009, 2010, and 2018 American Academy of Religion sessions on ‘Methodism and the African Diaspora, 1738–1834’, ‘New Horizons and Frontiers: Evangelical Preachers and Preaching’, and ‘Health and Healing in Wesleyan and Methodist Perspectives’.This issue includes four articles based on papers presented at the 14 May 2021 Methodist Studies Seminar hosted jointly by Cliff College and the Manchester Wesley Research Centre, which, due to the pandemic, was held remotely. Two further articles, by Dennis C. Dickerson and by Sègbégnon Mathieu Gnonhossou and Kelly Diehl Yates, explore the same subject. An ‘Introduction and Response’ by Tamara E. Lewis draws the threads together.The issue also features our customary suite of book reviews, which range broadly in space and time and cover both history and theology. One of these reports is on an impressive digital resource, and we hope to include further such reviews in future volumes.
