 | | The reason the 1760s are overlooked by historians, Kidd said, is because the advertising and advanced public relations for which George Whitefield is famous were not used during this period. | | | While some more moderate ministers dismissed Johnson's claim as irrational, others claimed they had encountered similar experiences. | | | A result of the 1760s revivals, Kidd said, was the separation of religion from politics. |

| | Classicism and Sentimentalism |
| | Even without complete agreement, however, the elements of a modern literature on the European model were sufficiently in place by the 1760s that literature ceased being the work of a few isolated individuals and began to show evidence of trends, schools, tendencies, and other phenomena associated with a mature literary culture. | | | As you will remember, the syllabo-tonic system of versification eventually replaced the syllabic system adopted by the first Russian poets at the end of the seventeenth century. | | | The preliminary tasks of normalizing the literary language and developing a system of versification appropriate to the Russian tongue had been completed by about the 1760s, at least to the point of providing a serviceable foundation for the further development of Russian literature. |
