Academia: Honors Thesis

"The Crown of Wisdom": Providential History in Nineteenth-Century American History Textbooks

This historiographical thesis argues that juvenile American History textbooks (textbooks for children) from 1800-1850 promoted ideas of a Christian America and emphasized the providential role of God in the creation of the United States. I came to this topic after reading President Donald Trump’s 1776 Commission, which promoted “patriotic education,” especially in regards to the revolution, in school textbooks. I wondered what “patriotic education” really meant, and if there was historical precedent for it. So, I decided to read the first American History textbooks to find out — and discovered a strong connection between patriotism and Christianity. (Today, we’d call this Christian nationalism.) Several authors have conducted studies of textbooks from the nineteenth century, but there is a lack of scholarship regarding religion in these textbooks: none used providential history (the idea of God being an actor in History and having special plans for the U.S.) as a guiding principle for their research. I was curious to conduct my own exploration in which religion — and the revolution — is at the center. Examining early U.S. History textbooks through this lens helps us contextualize the issues around textbooks throughout history, and to understand our own national memory.
