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. 606 $aReligion$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01093763 606 $aMinorities$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01023088 606 $aEthnicity$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00916034 606 $aEthnic relations$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00916005 606 $aCatholics$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00849297 606 $aCatholiques$zE?tats-Unis 606 $aMinorites$zE?tats-Unis 606 $aEthnicite$zE?tats-Unis 606 $aRace Relations$3(DNLM)D011822 606 $aPrejudice$3(DNLM)D011287 606 $aReligion$3(DNLM)D012067 606 $aMinority Groups$3(DNLM)D008913 606 $aEthnic Groups$3(DNLM)D005006 606 $aCultural Diversity$3(DNLM)D018864 606 $aCatholics$zUnited States 606 $aMinorities$zUnited States 606 $aEthnicity$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$2fast 607 $aE?tats-Unis$xRelations interethniques 607 $aE?tats-Unis$xReligion 607 $aUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xReligion 607 $aUnited States$xEthnic relations 608 $aEssays. 610 0 $aUnited States 610 0 $aEthnic groups 615 0$aReligion. 615 0$aMinorities. 615 0$aEthnicity. 615 0$aEthnic relations. 615 0$aCatholics. 615 0$aCatholiques 615 0$aMinorites 615 0$aEthnicite 615 20$aRace Relations. 615 20$aPrejudice. 615 20$aReligion. 615 10$aMinority Groups. 615 10$aEthnic Groups. 615 10$aCultural Diversity. 615 0$aCatholics 615 0$aMinorities 615 0$aEthnicity 676 $a305.8/00973/09045 700 $aGleason$b Philip$f1927-,$01111985 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524869203321 996 $aSpeaking of Diversity$92642872 997 $aUNINA
