Item Description: | Title from caption. "The weekly Oneida Circular was the organ of the perfectionist communities founded by John Hymphrey Noyes, and was preceded by three or four other periodicals edited by him and published by these communities. After the perfectionist community was driven out of Putney, Vermont, colonies were established at Oneida, New York and at Wallingford, Connecticut. The Free Church Circular was published at Oneida from 1847 until 1851, when its plant was destroyed by fire, and a new series under the title Circular was begun at Brooklyn. After two annual volumes, it was moved to Oneida and after 10 years was moved to Wallingford, and then back to Oneida. In his Circular Noyes expounded his doctrines of spiritualism, communism, and free love. The early volumes dealt mainly with religion and its relationship to communism, and featured sections of Home-Talks and Table-Talks. In later years the contents were broadened to include more on science, as well as poetry, U.S. and foreign news, lists of new publications, and miscellaneous items. Articles dealt with the beliefs of the perfectionist community, and the 'Community Journal' kept the reader informed of the latest activities in the community." --Cf. American periodicals, 1740-1900. |
