Erstausgabe Signiert
Hardcover. First edition. First printing [stated]. x, [4], 368, [2] p. Notes. Bibliography. Index. The debate over the framers' concept of freedom of religion has become heated and divisive. This scrupulously researched book sets aside the half-truths, omissions, and partisan arguments, and instead focuses on the actual writings and actions of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, and others. Legal scholar Michael I. Meyerson investigates how the framers of the Constitution envisioned religious freedom and how they intended it to operate in the new republic. "Endowed by Our Creator" shows that the framers understood that the American government should not acknowledge religion in a way that favours any particular creed or denomination. Nevertheless, the framers believed that religion could instill virtue and help to unify a diverse nation. They created a spiritual public vocabulary, one that could communicate to all-including agnostics and atheists-that they were valued members of the political community. Through their writings and their decisions, the framers affirmed that respect for religious differences is a fundamental American value, Meyerson concludes. Now it is for us to determine whether religion will be used to alienate and divide, or to inspire and unify our religiously diverse nation. Very good in very good dust jacket. Signed by author.
