Enlightenment and Secularism is a collection of twenty eight essays that seek to understand the connection between the European Enlightenment and the emergence of secular societies, as well as the character or nature of those societies. The contributors are drawn from a variety of disciplines including History, Sociology, Political Science, and Literature. Most of the essays focus on a single text from the Enlightenment, borrowing or secularizing the format of a sermon on a text, and are designed to be of particular use to those teaching and studying the history of the Enlightenment within a liberal arts curriculum.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine condition. First edition. Quarto. xxvii, 390pp. Three color glossy boards with white, green and black lettering on cover, white and green on spine. "It might be surprising to the writers of the classic texts of the Enlightenment and the early proponents of secularism to learn that their ideas and values are still contested in the twenty-first century especially in the United States, the first polity to embrace them and put them into practice. In light of the reemergence of explicitly religious politics, the current generation of university students finds itself facing a situation in which the clash of religious ideas and beliefs is a crucial factor shaping the contemporary world."
