John Witherspoon's American Revolution
John Witherspoon, prominent Evangelical clergyman in the Presbyterian Church of Scotland, in 1768 accepted an invitation to cross the Atlantic Ocean and take up the presidency of the College of New Jersey, later Princeton University. In 1776 he became the only clergyman to sign the Declaration of Independence. His college presidency ushered in a period of more than one century during which Princeton constituted a bedrock of “old side” Presbyteria…

What Hath God Wrought
The Oxford History of the United States is by far the most respected multi-volume history of our nation. The series includes two Pulitzer Prize winners, two New York Times bestsellers, and winners of the Bancroft and Parkman Prizes. Now, in What Hath God Wrought, historian Daniel Walker Howe illuminates the period from the battle of New Orleans to the end of the Mexican-American War, an era when the United States expanded to the Pacific and won c…

Giving impetus to this renewal of energy are two major works on American religious t…
Church, State, and Education in the Young American Republic
Thomas Jefferson's tombstone bears inscription he composed for it, identifying him as Author of Declaration of American Independence, of Statute of Virginia for religious freedom, & Father of University of Virginia. Of great man's many achievements and services to his country, he selected these three as ones by which I wish most to be remembered.1 Self-government, religious freedom, and public education were all fundamental to American republican…
After Franklin
Although much has been written about Benjamin Franklin s Autobiography, other writers of what Stephen Arch calls self-biographies in post-revolutionary America have received scant scholarly attention. This rich variety of texts dramatically shows the complex nature of 19th-century concepts of Arguing that autobiography is a modern invention, Arch shows its emergence in the older, conservative self-biographies of Alexander Graydon, Benjamin Rush, …
On Hallowed Ground
This is not a book about Abraham Lincoln, but a collection of historiographical essays. Lincoln is, however, frequently quoted as an authoritative interpreter of the nature of American society. Those who are familiar with the previous writings of John Patrick Diggins will not be surprised to learn that the essays present a polemical defense of liberal pluralism as a paradigm for understanding the history of the United States. At the core of the a…

Why the Scottish Enlightenment Was Useful to the Framers of the American Constitution
A large body of research conducted over a period of many years has demonstrated the enormous contribution that Scottish thought made to early America. Curiously enough, the evidence for this important influence accumulated gradually without attracting widespread attention until 1978, when Garry Wills published a book on the Declaration of Independence, orienting that document within the context of Scottish thinking. All of a sudden, eighteenth-ce…

The Cambridge Platonists of Old England and the Cambridge Platonists of New England
In 1875 the distinguished Unitarian minister and local historian Henry Wilder Foote preached a eulogy for his late colleague, the Reverend James Walker, philosopher and former president of Harvard University. It was an appropriate occasion to characterize the achievement of the antebellum generation of Harvard Unitarian leaders that Walker represented. "They were much more than mere denominationalists or founders of a sect," Foote declared. "The …
The Political Psychology of The Federalist
HE Federalist Papers are often treated as a kind of secular scripture, an authoritative statement of how American political institutions work or should work. Even assuming that the authors-Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay-shared the passion for fame they understood so well, they must have succeeded here beyond their wildest dreams. Today, lawyers cite The Federalist in their briefs. Conservatives have treated it as the embodiment o…

The Decline of Calvinism
One of the major themes in the intellectual history of the Western world has been the rise and fall of Calvinism. A militant and crusading ideology during the Reformation era, Calvinism was nevertheless showing signs of losing its expansive force by the time of the Treaty of Westphalia (1648) and the Restoration of the English monarchy (1660). Before much longer, the inner conviction of Calvinist adherents as well as their determination to impose…

SAMUEL GILMAN (1791-1858) enjoys a form of recognition only a few writers achieve. His best-known poem can be recited (at least through the first stanza) by more than a hundred thousand people today-most of them grown men. Gilman's one durable contribution to posterity is the song lyric, Fair Harvard. His career, however, is of interest to the cultural historian as well as to the Harvard alumnus. Gilman's
