| Abstract | Historically, the education of not only prison populations but the population in general was religious in content and emphasis and was provided by religious organizations, with Sunday Schools being one of the few formal and widespread sources of education until the later 19th century. The education of prisoners has therefore long carried a religious emphasis; after all, to be a penitent in a penitentiary implied some degree of religious instruction and knowledge as well as the ability to hear, read and learn from the scriptures. For the incarcerated, religious instruction would be carried through a period of imprisonment, perhaps to a terminal exit, with a chaplain officiating on the gallows at execution. |
