Religious Liberties: Anti-Catholicism and Liberal Democracy in Nineteenth-Century U.S. Literature and Culture - Imagining the Americas
Fenton, Elizabeth (Associate Professor of English, Associate Professor of English, University of Vermont)

Through analysis of a wide range of texts, Religious Liberties shows that U. S. understandings of religious freedom and pluralism emerged, paradoxically, out of a virulent anti-Catholicism.
