Rapp, George

Rapp, George
(1757-1847) Рапп, Георг
Религиозный деятель, утопист. Приехав в США из Германии, в 1804 вместе со своим сыном основал общество "Гармония" [Harmony Society] и несколько его коммун [commune] в штатах Пенсильвания и Индиана. Сторонники Раппа, известные как "раппиты" [Rappites] или "гармониты" [Harmonites], верили в скорое пришествие Христа, принимали обет безбрачия. Коммуны процветали до смерти Раппа, но и после нее какое-то время привлекали новых последователей
