A Long Eclipse

"Taking a social and cultural history approach, A Long Eclipse unpacks the dominant liberal Protestant establishment that had imposed its particular vision of moral and intellectual purpose on denominational and non-denominational campuses alike." "White historians tended to date the decline of the Protestant presence on campuses to the 1920s - arguing that the seeds of its own destruction had been planted within the religion by the turn of the century - Gidney shows that its strength persisted until the late 1960s. At that time a more religiously diverse student body, the ascent of the multiversity and the swirling moral kaleidoscope of the 1960s finally eroded Protestant hegemony. The voice of liberal Protestantism was reduced to being one among many."--BOOK JACKET.
