The first book-length account of the Mormon thinker, JOSEPH WHITE MUSSER reveals the figure whose teachings helped mold a movement. #newbook out now from @CristinaMartaR (@utahtechu)! go.illinois.edu/s24rosetti #biography #religion #MormonStudies
Really grateful for this Times Literary Supplement review essay of #AmericanZion, Grant Hardy's Annotated Book of Mormon, and Richard Bushman's recent gold plates book. Especially happy that Seth Perry so perfectly captured my argument. the-tls.co.uk/articles/josep…
So grateful to have Melissa's words still uttered from the grave.

The news that many of us have been dreading arrived this morning: Melissa Inouye passed after her long fight with cancer. Words can’t capture the devastation this brings, but here are some words nonetheless.
For a limited time, save 50% on the "American Zion: A New History of Mormonism" audiobook by @BenjaminEPark. Offer ends 05/07. audiobooks.com/promotions/pro…
My latest for @madebyhistory: time.com/6962381/tradwi…
I genuinely can’t think of a better person than Melissa Inouye, nor can I imagine someone who has done more to better the LDS community. This is heartbreaking news, and I hope we can all chime in to help her family.

OMG @LMaffKipp!!!!!!!!!!!
Just finished reading Kingdom of Nauvoo. A great read. I particularly enjoyed @BenjaminEPark’s humorous wordplay. Here is one of my favorite lines.
Some personal news found in today’s @MormonHistAssoc newsletter.
I’ve been thinking through the relationship between religious sources/ideas in our historical narratives and critical approaches to the archive - let me know if you’d be interested in presenting something along those lines #amrel

Waiting in line for the oral arguments at the Supreme Court today.
@BenjaminEPark I regret not making her acquaintance. She has told us things in her death that she could not tell us while alive.
Learning about how spicy the counter-culture was in SLC during Brigham’s tenure has shaken me.
A few days before she died, I had the chance to ask Melissa Inouye to describe her wildest dream for Mormonism. Here is what she said. sltrib.com/religion/2024/…
@BenjaminEPark What a wonderful tribute, Ben. I'm so sorry
I took Melissa’s newest book with me to the abbey. Her books have been enormously helpful to me as I struggle in my religious life. I’m sadder than I expected to be at the loss of someone I haven’t met. She was a beautiful soul and gifted writer. Prayers for those close to her.
The news that many of us have been dreading arrived this morning: Melissa Inouye passed after her long fight with cancer. Words can’t capture the devastation this brings, but here are some words nonetheless.
@BenjaminEPark No one will ever replace her giant heart and her giant brain, but I will pledge to keep her by my side in all I do. Melissa, thank you for your wide and loving reach! Peace to your wonderful family. You are so lucky to have them -- still! Right?
@BenjaminEPark A wonderful tribute. Thank you.
@BenjaminEPark thank you Ben. I never met her in person, only through the work of the LDS scholarly community. It is a large hole she leaves behind, especially when coupled with Kate's passing.
@BenjaminEPark The world is a little colder today. Thanks for sharing your relationship with her.
@BenjaminEPark I’m very sorry for your loss. This is touching tribute to your memory of her.
@BenjaminEPark I’m so sorry for your loss, Ben.
@BenjaminEPark She was an elect women and is in not more physical pain
@BenjaminEPark This is very sad but also a beautiful tribute. I met Melissa at a Global Mormon Studies conference - very nervous as a former Mormon scholar there for the first time - she was welcoming, warm, funny and so passionate about her research
