I dunno, the First Great Awakening is generally dated to the 1700s, and the Second Great Awakening to the first few decades of the 1800s. If anything, Mormonism was an outgrowth of the revivalism, not the other way around (Joseph Smith claimed he had his first vision in 1820, and he published the Book of Mormon in 1830). Or were there later revival movements that showed Mormon influence? -- dadl-ot mailing list http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot
