Summary: "Considerations on Religion and Public Education" by Hannah More is a critical and reflective work written in the late 18th century. This non-fiction publication engages with themes surrounding religion and its relationship with public education, particularly in the context of the tumultuous political climate of revolutionary France. More's analysis delves into the implications of emerging secular ideologies on faith and societal structures, expressing concern for the future of moral education amid the rise of atheistic doctrines. In this book, More responds directly to the controversial speech delivered by M. Dupont in the French National Convention, which advocated for the establishment of secular public education devoid of religious instruction. More emphasizes the importance of Christianity in framing moral principles and social order, arguing that education without a foundation in faith could lead to societal decay. Throughout her remarks, she critiques the notion of enlightenment that dismisses religion, warning of the dangers of irreligion evidenced by the chaos of the French Revolution. More appeals to her readers, particularly women, to recognize their roles in promoting charitable actions and moral responsibility in the face of shifting cultural values.
