The development of a considerable body of literature on British Sign Language (BSL) now permits analyzing and describing the sociolinguistic history of the language.

Music and the Sin of Sloth: The Gendered Articulation of Worthy Musical Time in Early American Music
Shorner-Johnson, Kevin – Philosophy of Music Education Review, 2019
Sociologist Max Weber identified Puritan constructions of virtuous time and the sin of sloth as having explanatory power for the origins of Puritan action and capitalist economies. This article expands upon Weber's thesis to examine how the sin of sloth was reinterpreted to encourage or prohibit psalm singing, singing schools, and later forms of…

Cottrell-Boyce, Aidan – History of Education, 2022
In recent years, many scholars have drawn a distinction between procedural and programmatic secularism. Procedural secularists seek to build communities wherein 'competing concepts of the good life' are afforded opportunities for expression. Programmatic secularists seek to limit the influence of religion within the public sphere. The 1870…

Day, Katie – Teaching Theology & Religion, 2022
This article is a reflection on the teaching of public theology in two very different contexts: in a Protestant seminary in the US (1985-2019) and an underground seminary in Nazi Germany (1935-1937). The author analyzes her teaching career over years of change, both institutional and social, that challenged pedagogical methods to remain relevant…

Kerby, Martin; Baguley, Margaret; MacDonald, Abbey; Cruickshank, Vaughan – Irish Educational Studies, 2022
In the years either side of Federation in 1901, Australia's Irish Catholics balanced two often contradictory impulses: their determination to retain their cultural and religious links with Ireland in the face of an often unsympathetic Protestant majority, and the desire to become 'good' Australians in order to make 'a go' of their lives in the new…

A long tradition of both State and religious interest and support characterised provision for education on the island of Ireland from the 1700s. Following the partition of Ireland in the 1920s, the newly created political entities of the Irish Free State and Northern Ireland forged separate and distinct education policy trajectories that largely…

Tröhler, Daniel – Journal of Beliefs & Values, 2021
This article argues that crucial elements of the three most important theoretical models of twentieth-century education can be traced back to three Protestant denominations that were developed in Europe in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. First, rather than to look in depth at the Protestant Reformers' own educational ideas, the paper…
