Join us for the Dean's Lecture Series with Dr. Jennifer Graber, assistant professor of religious studies at The College of Wooster, who will address "The Search for the Christian Prison in the Early American Republic." Graber received her Master of Theological Studies from Candler in 1999. Her book, “The Furnace of Affliction” (2011), explores evangelical Protestants’ efforts to make religion central to emerging practices and philosophies of prison discipline from the 1790s through the 1850s, while her next project is focused on religious transformations prompted by conflicts between settlers and Indians in the American West.
