Michael Quinn - Paperback","description":"\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eBenjamin E. Park\u003c\/b\u003e (Editor)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew lives have been as consequential for modern Mormonism as D. Michael Quinn. The son of a Mexican immigrant father and a California Mormon mother, Quinn became an influential participant in the New Mormon History movement. Much of his scholarly work remains classic in the field. Yet while he was publicly celebrated for his award-winning books and articles, he privately struggled to reconcile his sexuality with his faith. Eventually, his revisionist scholarship and homosexuality placed him in the crosshairs of church leaders, and he was excommunicated as one of the September Six in 1993. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This compilation is a rigorous and riveting assessment of Quinn's legacy. In this volume, scholars examine him as a historical figure who helps us better understand modern Mormonism. They also probe his role as a historiographical titan. These essays enable us to analyze his influence on scholarship that both preceded and followed him. More than an investigation into his life and work, \u003ci\u003eDNA Mormon\u003c\/i\u003e uncovers the world in which he lived.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBenjamin E.
