Reading the Bible w/ the Founding Fathers -- The English Bible and American Literacy Education (OUP)

Dela

Happy 250th Anniversary of 'Murica. You're in for a treat .

This is part 2 of multiple on the Second Chapter "The English and American Public Culture."

This episode broaches the English Bible's profound role on American Literacy Education, discussing pp. 29-34.

"The American Founders read the Bible," Oxford University Rhodes Scholar Daniel Dreisbach says in his first sentence of his Oxford University Press book. "They knew the Bible from cover to cover."

"Its ideas shaped their habits of mind."

"The Bible left its mark on the political culture of the era."

Dreisbach's first sentence in his chapter 2 is:

Ready ?

"Anglo-Americans are people of the Book, and that Book is the Bible."

WOW !

We had the author, Dr. Daniel L. Dreisbach, D.Phil. (Oxford), JD (University of Virginia Law School) on the podcast for Thanksgiving, Fall 2022.

We're going to make a fair use, do a transformative reading of the book. We'd like to thank Dr. Dreisbach for writing this, and thank Oxford University Press for making it available.

Support publishers when they make something worth reading.

Support the publisher and throw some bidness their way. Support your brick and mortar book dealer.

The Republican Professor is a pro-correctly-and-adequately-articulating-the-Bible's-appropriate-influence-on-American-politics podcast.

Therefore, welcome again, through his writing, Dr. Daniel L. Dreisbach, D.Phil., J.D.

The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.

Warmly,

Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.
