In his 2008 article for the New York Times, James Gleick talks about "the gloom that has fallen over the book-publishing industry" to describe the the negative impact of digitalizing books in the book-publishing industry.

In this article he describes the already decline in paper-books sales due to the rise of digital platforms such as Kindle, epub, etc, and how the future of book-publishers looked grimer because of an agreement between authors, publishers and Google to allow the scanning and digitalizing of books to make them accesible in website and digital platforms.

This agreement would be dramatic for the sectors of the book-publishing industry dealing with marketing, archiving and distributing physical paper books.

gregori [183]

Answer:

George Whitefield and Jonathan Edwards were preachers during the First Great awakening.

Explanation:

The Great Awakening was a difference in the religious ideas that changed the colonies in America during the 1730 and 1740. This movement came to exist in this period when preachers travelled one town to another town by spreading the words of their God also about salvation and sins.

Jonathan Edwards became one of the popular preachers who delivered the most famous sermons called Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God. He also produced volumes of sermons, journals and observations. Edwards hoped his knowledge would make people move in the right path and remind them of the fate that awaited if they failed to acknowledge their sins. Edwards viewed sin as extremely darker than hell.

George Whitefield was an evangelist who began to preach in an energetic way which helped to spread the Awakening in England and the colonies. The purpose was for Christian people to look at their souls and turn their hearts toward God.
