What years are associated with the revelations of the Second Great Awakening?

• A. 1795 to 1830
• B. 1800 to 1850
• C. 1700 to 1730
• D. 1825 to 1860

Answer: (A)

The Second Great Awakening is understood as a late 18th‑ to early 19th‑century surge of religious revival in the United States. It began around 1795 and continued into the early 1830s, with revivals spreading widely across frontier regions and across denominations. The Cane Ridge revival of 1801 is a landmark example that illustrates how these movements energized Protestant life, led to new religious organizations, and helped fuel broader social reform currents. Because the main wave of fervor and organized revival activity falls within roughly 1795–1830, that window best captures the period associated with the Second Great Awakening. The other ranges either start too early, extend beyond the central peak of the movement, or are too broad to reflect its core dating.
