Inhaltsangabe
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes. These words provided generations of American Christians with the justification for physically disciplining their children, in ways that range from spankings to brutal beatings. This learned and deeply disturbing work of history examines both the religious roots of corporal punishment in America and its consequences -- in the minds of children, in adults, and in our national tendencies toward authoritarian and apocalyptic thinking. Drawing on sources as old as Cotton Mather and as current as today's headlines, Spare the Child is one of those rare works of scholarship that have the power to change our lives.

Rezensionen
Greven marshalls a wealth of clinical evidence to show that beatings and spankings administered in childhood have long-lasting harmful consequences, including suppressed anger, self-hatred, recurring depressions, apathy, and stifling of compassion for oneself and others. A Rutgers history professor who teaches courses on the family, Greven maintains that the violence against children endemic in our society contributes to adults' unquestioning obedience to authority and to the oppression of women. He traces support for physical punishment to the Protestant belief that use of the rod is necessary to break the child's will; he also briefly outlines nonviolent alternatives to corporal punishment. Although this is more sociological treatise than childrearing guide, parents will benefit from this wise and liberating book.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. A study of James Hay, a little known 17th-cent. Scotsman who was a key figure in the early Stuart era. Unlike the vast majority of Scots who entered England with James I, Hay absorbed the culture of England and tried to become a genuine part of it, in order to play an important role for his adopted country on both the nat. and internat. level. For more than three decades Hay was at the right hand of those who made the decisions, and advised them on what to decide. Between 1616 and 1629 Hay traveled to virtually every major Western European nation. Hay's lesser gentry origins, emphasis on civilian gov't. employment, devotion to the court over the country and ardent entrepreneurship all single him out as a Jacobean aristocrat. A print on demand pub. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 00106146355
