- Synopsis
- From the author: Think of this rather as an extended meditation on the history of an idea, indeed of a complex of ideas so powerfully enchanting in their continuing effect that they may fairly be called a "myth": the common school. The myth of the common school as crucible of a single national identity, as the hothouse in which young sprouts are trained to a single state-approved pattern, is my topic here.
