Book Description: CAMBRIDGE UP, 2008. Hardcover. Book Condition: Good. This book seeks to correct the popular impression of moderation as timidity & caution. It examines the structure of political moderation in detail, characterizing it as a compound of principle & prudence & defining itas humility in the face of the past & as historically grounded political ethics. The book examines moderation's history during the Peloponnesian War, the French Wars of Religion, & the century of its efflorescence from 1572 to 1680 when it failed to coalesce into an ideology. The bulk of the book then examines the popularization of political moderation in America from 1713 to 1884 as an integral element in political culture & the product of religious belief.AMERICANA/US HISTORY.

Robert M. Calhoon examines the structure of political moderation, he characterizes moderation as a compound of principle and prudence, he defines it as humility in the face of the past, and he classifies it as historically grounded political ethics. From its origins in the Peloponnesian War and its early modern recovery during the French Wars of Religion, this book recounts the popularization of political moderation in American history from John Locke in the 1680s to the Mugwumps in the 1880s. The first comprehensive history of this subject, this book draws on more that a hundred books published over the past half century and extensive research on religion and politics in America to demonstrate that moderates were creatures of circumstance - made not born.1. Augustan moderates: 'The precariousness of genuine civilization', 2. Revolutionary moderates and the development of political character, 3. Ordered liberty in the Southern backcountry and the middle West, 4. Moderating moderation: denominational and primitive Christianity.'Raymond Chandler observed that there are no dull subjects, only dull minds. Political moderation must seem the dullest of subjects, but in the hands of Robert Calhoon, a gifted historian, it emerges not only as illuminating history but as imperative for an understanding of our own tortured times.' Eugene D. Genovese, author of Roll, Jordan, Roll and Mind of the Master Class, with Elizabeth Fox-Genovese, (Cambridge University Press, 2005)'This is a wise, humane, and learned book. In the midst of an era torn by conflict and locked, some say, in cultural 'wars,' Calhoon has illustrated the power of moderation in America's past. No tepid 'centrists,' the politicians, preachers, and pedagogues who advocated moderation in unlikely places and inconvenient times followed a model of civil action that has roots in ancient Athens and Sparta. Calhoon gives us a view of British governance, the American Revolution, and the era of the Civil War from the perspective of the men and women who combined principle and prudence in a struggle against zealotry and extremism. The book opens us to resources in the American tradition that can serve us well.' E. Brooks Holifield, Charles Howard Candler Professor of American Church History, Emory University'Like a master sculptor who can see human forms in blocks of marble, Robert Calhoon has identified a vein of political moderation in American history, which time and again, he argues, provided a critical element of strength and stability in the civic community. Deftly interweaving political, intellectual, and religious history, and illustrated with moving vignettes of dozens of Americans who rejected political polarization for conciliation and mediation, Calhoon makes a powerful appeal for recognizing the importance of political moderation in American history, its deep legacy in European political thought, and its continued utility in today's world.'
