Sleep With History

Founding of Yale University: Education and Innovation (1701)


Listen Later

In the hushed twilight dimness of early 18th century New England, we meander through the cobblestone paths of ambition and intellectual awakening where the seeds of Yale University first took root. Amidst the fervent Puritan ethos and the whispering winds of change brought by the Great Awakening, a group of visionary clergymen laid the cornerstone of an institution destined to uphold staunch religious convictions while fostering rigorous academic inquiry. This bastion of learning, nestled in the quiet, burgeoning society, was not merely a school but a declaration of a communitys aspiration toward both divine and worldly understanding. Join us as we explore how the flickering candlelight of Yales early days illuminated a path toward enlightenment and intellectual freedom, inviting us to reflect on the foundations that shaped a new era.
