This volume, with contributions from scholars in political science, literature, and philosophy, examines the mutual influence of reason and religion at the time of the American Founding—especially in the writings and speeches of critical figures in that period, such as Thomas Paine, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and Charles Carroll—and beyond, in the works of such important interpreters of the American Founding as Alexis de Tocqueville and Abraham Lincoln.
