Eugene England
George Eugene England, Jr. (22 July 1933 – 17 August 2001), usually credited as
Eugene England, was a
Latter-day Saint writer, teacher, and scholar. He founded ''
Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought'', the oldest independent journal in
Mormon Studies, with
G. Wesley Johnson,
Paul G. Salisbury,
Joseph H. Jeppson, and
Frances Menlove in 1966, and cofounded the
Association for Mormon Letters in 1976. He is also widely known in
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) for his many essays about
Mormon culture and thought. From 1977–1998, England taught
Mormon Literature at
Brigham Young University. England described the ideal modern Mormon scholar as "critical and innovative as his gifts from God require but conscious of and loyal to his own unique heritage and nurturing community and thus able to exercise those gifts without harm to others or himself."
