Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This literary analysis considers the relationship between education and ethics, religion and secular civilization in medieval Protestantism. The author's consideration of these educational themes is rooted in a historical account of the development of English public schooling and religious education during the period. The scholar undertakes an exploration of the ways in which the English church used educational institutions to shape the moral character of its people, through systematic instruction in religious belief and practices, while cultivating loyalty to a broader national civic identity. The book traces this tradition as it evolves over centuries, giving particular account to the 17th and 18th centuries when competing visions for the soul of English society were sharply contested on the terrain of grammar schools and universities. The book concludes by arguing that the religious education provided by the English church during this period was fundamental in developing a conception of public morality among the English ruling class that was distinct from religious doctrine and practice. This book will appeal not only to those with a scholarly interest in educational history, but also to the general reader interested in the historical relationship between religion and education or in the genealogy of public morality in England and beyond.
