Sacred and the Secular University
Words, Works, and Ways of Knowing: The Breakdown of Moral Philosophy in New England before the Civil War
Despite Andover Theological Seminary being the site of a good deal of edifying theological discourse in the nineteenth century, that institution has not received the attention it deserves. Sara Paretsky's short book, which is essentially the dissertation that she completed at the University of Chicago in 1977, focusing on intellectual life at the seminary in the first half of the nineteenth century, helps fill this void.
