Among historians of American ethnic groups, Philip Gleason has played a leading role in that development. His essays analyzing the terms of public and scholarly discourse--mapping the changing conceptions of American identity during the past half century--make a distinctive contribution to intellectual history." "Speaking of Diversity collects eleven of Gleason's seminal essays, each of them examining twentieth-century American thought on ethnic and religious diversity. Part 1 focuses specifically on linguistic and conceptual analysis, treating terms such as melting-pot, pluralism, identity, and minority. Part 2 explores the impact of World War II on American thinking about diversity, tolerance, and intergroup relations. Part 3 consists of essays on religion, all closely tied to themes in earlier essays. Together, they form a model of methodological and thematic unity. The essays also clear the ground as Americans continue their efforts to realize the stated goals of tolerance, diversity, and order."--Jacket.  aDescription based on print version record. 0aReligion.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01093763 0aMinorities.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01023088 0aEthnicity.2fast0(OCoLC)fst00916034 0aEthnic relations.2fast0(OCoLC)fst00916005 0aCatholics.2fast0(OCoLC)fst00849297 0aCatholiqueszÉtats-Unis. 0aMinoriteszÉtats-Unis. 0aEthnicitezÉtats-Unis.20aRace Relations.0(DNLM)D01182220aPrejudice.0(DNLM)D01128720aReligion.0(DNLM)D01206710aMinority Groups.0(DNLM)D00891310aEthnic Groups.0(DNLM)D00500610aCultural Diversity.0(DNLM)D018864 0aCatholicszUnited States. 0aMinoritieszUnited States. 0aEthnicityzUnited States. 0aUnited States.2fast0(OCoLC)fst01204155 0aÉtats-UnisxRelations interethniques. 0aÉtats-UnisxReligion. 0aUnited States.0(DNLM)D014481 0aUnited StatesxReligion. 0aUnited StatesxEthnic relations.0 aUnited States0 aEthnic groups 0aElectronic books.2lcgft 0aEssays.0(DNLM)D020474 7aElectronic books. 2local2 aProject Muse. e distributor18iOnline version:tSpeaking of diversity.dBaltimore : Johns Hopkins University Press, 1992w(OCoLC)5555870382 aProject Muse.edistributor 0aBook collections on Project MUSE. 0aBook collections on Project MUSE.40zFull text available: uhttps://muse.jhu.edu/book/68469/
