Studies in American Thought and Culture
Paul S. Boyer, series editor
This series offers works by both established and emerging scholars
in the humanities that illuminate and interpret America's intellectual
and cultural history. Wide-ranging in scope, and with an advisory
board of prominent scholars, the series presents books of intellectual
quality that make a significant scholarly contribution while
also speaking to the broader community of thoughtful readers.
The University of Wisconsin Press is particularly proud to publish
this series since Merle Curti, author of the seminal study, The
Growth of American Thought (1943) and a founder of the field
of American intellectual history, taught at the University of
WisconsinMadison from 1942 until his retirement in 1968.
This series continues the tradition of Wisconsin leadership in
the field of American thought and culture.
Advisory Board: Charles H.
