Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the ebb and flow of religion in colleges from the colonial era to the early 19th century. The author demonstrates that, while the colonial colleges were founded with the express purpose of training religious leaders, religious fervor declined sharply during the Revolutionary War period. The author maintains that the rise of French skepticism, coupled with the war's disruptive influence on college life, led to a decline in religious observance and belief. Through detailed research and analysis of historical documents, the book offers a nuanced understanding of the complex interplay between religion and higher education in America's formative years. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of education, religion, or American culture.
