Reviews
Politically inflected debates over Christianity's influence over the American Founding will always be with us. But for those who seek to understand the past rather than exploit it for present-day purposes, Carl Richard's lucid and judicious book will prove an indispensable resource. No one can come away from a reading of it without understanding that the Founders lived in a world saturated with the images, narratives, cosmology, anthropology, morality, and providential promises of the Bible, and that the views of even the most unorthodox among them had very little in common with the late-modern secular outlook., Questions about the American founding generation's faith often intertwine with contemporary politics; those on the right overstate the founders' Evangelicalism, and those on the left overstate their secularism. Having read public and private writings of 30 leaders in the founding generation, Richard weighs in on these debates, suggesting that scholars have underestimated the Bible's role in shaping intellectual and political life in revolutionary America. He argues that the Bible definitively framed the founders' worldviews. Richard is at his best when he shows how pervasive the Bible was in popular culture. . . . .Richard demonstrates beyond a doubt that the founders peppered their political rhetoric with biblical language. . . .Summing Up: Recommended. General collections and up., The Founders and the Bible is an important addition to the existing literature on American history. Carl J. Richard conclusively establishes that American founders were neither theocratic Christians who wanted to establish a Christian Sparta, nor were they outright secularists in the 21st century sense. It is a very scholarly and well-researched book. It is written in such a way that even a layperson will enjoy reading it., This is a thoroughly documented study that shows the many ways the founders of the American republic were immersed in the language, images, teachings, and general ethos of the Bible., Questions about the American founding generation's faith often intertwine with contemporary politics; those on the right overstate the founders' Evangelicalism, and those on the left overstate their secularism. Having read public and private writings of 30 leaders in the founding generation, Richard weighs in on these debates, suggesting that scholars have underestimated the Bible's role in shaping intellectual and political life in revolutionary America. He argues that the Bible definitively framed the founders' worldviews. Richard is at his best when he shows how pervasive the Bible was in popular culture. . . . .Richard demonstrates beyond a doubt that the founders peppered their political rhetoric with biblical language. . . . Summing Up:Recommended. General collections and up., In this single volume, Professor Richard provides a thorough, if not exhaustive, presentation of the evidence showing the enormous influence of the Bible on the leading members of the Founding generation. The book will prove a valuable resource for all who study the American political enterprise., One long-running sideshow of the culture wars is a squabble about the Christian orthodoxy of the Founding Fathers: believers or heretics? Illuminating the question so greatly as to dispel it, Richard relays what and how Washington, Adams (John and Samuel), Paine, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Franklin, Jay, Hamilton, Henry, and others wrote about religion and Christianity in relation to such concepts as divine intervention, morality, republicanism, American exceptionalism, free will, biblical authority, life after death, human nature, sin, and church-state relations. He provides quotation-filled chapters on those matters, demonstrating how thoroughly the Bible suffused colonial and early republican American culture and how particular founders, especially the least orthodoxly Christian, studied the Bible throughout their lives; none of them was atheist nor even deist--not even Paine. Even when religion wasn't the subject, when they wished to speak with maximal weight, they adopted the language of the King James Bible. . . . [I]t is an invaluable resource, especially given its good, not overly complicated index., Benjamin Rush's insight, "men are governed only by the Bible or the bayonet," encapsulates the worldview of America's Founders. In The Founders and the Bible Carl Richard, America's premier intellectual historian, shows the Bible molding the intellectual, political and religious life of the early republic. Even Franklin, Jefferson and Tom Paine believed in a providential deity who created and sustains the world. Richard's book is the first step in a much needed re-writing of American history.
