History

Just which "ideals" were affirmed by the Founders? What lessons of history were closely studied by them? American Ideals: Founding a "Republic of Virtue" is an invitation to enter this part of the American debate regarding human nature and the conditions right for its flourishing. In these carefully crafted lectures, Professor Daniel N. Robinson traces the dominant features of the early American ethos that culminated in declared independence and a constitutional form of government unheralded in political history. This is a fascinating opportunity to trace the manner in which the founding documents of the United States evolved.
