Sir Thomas Smith (1513-77) was a humanist scholar, colonialist and
diplomat, and also held a prominent position in the court of Queen
Elizabeth. First published in 1906, this book contains the original
1583 text of De republica Anglorum, Smith's pioneering study of the
English social, judicial and political systems. The work was
written from 1562 to 1565, when Smith was Elizabeth's ambassador to
France. This edition contains an editorial introduction and
appendices, including information on manuscripts and versions of
the text after 1583. It will be of value to anyone with an interest
in Smith's writings and the nature of Elizabethan government.
The literature tells us that parental involvement affects academic
achievement. However, much of the literature on parental
involvement focuses on the involvement of mothers with limited
information about the involvement of fathers, especially African
American fathers. The parental involvement literature on African
American fathers is insufficient compared to their White
counterparts. African American fathers do not have a "voice" in the
literature on parental involvement. A racial and gender bias exists
in the literature on parental involvement that marginalizes the
voice of African American fathers. African American Fathers'
Involvement in their Children's Education seeks to understand the
relationship that African American fathers have with the education
of their children by using Critical Race Theory as a theoretical
framework to privilege the "voice" of African American fathers.
This text focuses on the contributions that African American
fathers make in the lives of their children and families,
challenges the master deficient narrative, and humanizes African
American fathers. This book purposefully and unapologetically
portrays African American fathers as the brilliant, excellent human
beings they are.
