توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی
What does it mean to “believe” in America? Why do
we always speak of our country as having a mission or purpose
that is higher than other nations?
Modern liberals have invested a great deal in the notion that
America was founded as a secular state, with religion relegated
to the private sphere. David Gelernter argues that America is
not secular at all, but a powerful religious idea—indeed,
a religion in its own right.
Gelernter argues that what we have come to call
“Americanism” is in fact a secular version of
Zionism. Not the Zionism of the ancient Hebrews, but that of
the Puritan founders who saw themselves as the new children of
Israel, creating a new Jerusalem in a new world. Their
faith-based ideals of liberty, equality, and democratic
governance had a greater influence on the nation’s
founders than the Enlightenment.
Gelernter traces the development of the American religion from
its roots in the Puritan Zionism of seventeenth-century New
England to the idealistic fighting faith it has become, a
militant creed dedicated to spreading freedom around the world.
The central figures in this process were Abraham Lincoln, Teddy
Roosevelt, and Woodrow Wilson, who presided over the
secularization of the American Zionist idea into the form we
now know as Americanism.
If America is a religion, it is a religion without a god, and
it is a global religion. People who believe in America live all
over the world. Its adherents have included oppressed and
freedom-loving peoples everywhere—from the patriots of
the Greek and Hungarian revolutions to the martyred Chinese
dissidents of Tiananmen Square.
Gelernter also shows that anti-Americanism, particularly the
virulent kind that is found today in Europe, is a reaction
against this religious conception of America on the part of
those who adhere to a rival religion of pacifism and
appeasement.
A startlingly original argument about the religious meaning of
America and why it is loved—and hated—with so much
passion at home and abroad.
