The Transatlantic Constitution

The Transatlantic Constitution

Mary Sarah Bilder

Harvard University Press
2008
nidottu
Departing from traditional approaches to colonial legal history, Mary Sarah Bilder argues that American law and legal culture developed within the framework of an evolving, unwritten transatlantic constitution that lawyers, legislators, and litigants on both sides of the Atlantic understood. The central tenet of this constitution—that colonial laws and customs could not be repugnant to the laws of England but could diverge for local circumstances—shaped the legal development of the colonial world.Focusing on practices rather than doctrines, Bilder describes how the pragmatic and flexible conversation about this constitution shaped colonial law: the development of the legal profession; the place of English law in the colonies; the existence of equity courts and legislative equitable relief; property rights for women and inheritance laws; commercial law and currency reform; and laws governing religious establishment. Using as a case study the corporate colony of Rhode Island, which had the largest number of appeals of any mainland colony to the English Privy Council, she reconstructs a largely unknown world of pre-Constitutional legal culture.

Winner of the Bancroft PrizeWinner of the James Bradford Best Biography Prize, Society for Historians of the Early American RepublicFinalist, Literary Award for Nonfiction, Library of VirginiaFinalist, George Washington PrizeJames Madison’s Notes on the 1787 Constitutional Convention have acquired nearly unquestioned authority as the description of the U.S. Constitution’s creation. No document provides a more complete record of the deliberations in Philadelphia or depicts the Convention’s charismatic figures, crushing disappointments, and miraculous triumphs with such narrative force. But how reliable is this account?“[A] superb study of the Constitutional Convention as selectively reflected in Madison’s voluminous notes on it…Scholars have been aware that Madison made revisions in the Notes but have not intensively explored them. Bilder has looked closely indeed at the Notes and at his revisions, and the result is this lucid, subtle book. It will be impossible to view Madison’s role at the convention and read his Notes in the same uncomplicated way again…An accessible and brilliant rethinking of a crucial moment in American history.”—Robert K. Landers, Wall Street Journal

In this provocative new biography, Mary Sarah Bilder looks to the 1780s—the Age of the Constitution—to investigate the rise of a radical new idea in the English-speaking world: female genius. Bilder finds the perfect exemplar of this phenomenon in English-born Eliza Harriot Barons O’Connor. This pathbreaking female educator delivered a University of Pennsylvania lecture attended by George Washington as he and other Constitutional Convention delegates gathered in Philadelphia. As the first such public female lecturer, her courageous performance likely inspired the gender-neutral language of the Constitution. Female Genius reconstructs Eliza Harriot’s transatlantic life, from Lisbon to Charleston, paying particular attention to her lectures and to the academies she founded, inspiring countless young American women to consider a college education and a role in the political forum. Promoting the ideas made famous by Mary Wollstonecraft, Eliza Harriot brought the concept of female genius to the United States. Its advocates argued that women had equal capacity and deserved an equal education and political representation. Its detractors, who feared it undermined male political power, felt deeply threatened. By 1792 Eliza Harriot experienced struggles that reflected the larger backlash faced by women and people of color as new written constitutions provided the political and legal tools for exclusion based on sex, gender, and race.In recovering this pioneering life, the richly illustrated Female Genius makes clear that America’s framing moment did not belong solely to white men and offers an inspirational transatlantic history of women who believed in education as a political right.

sidottu
In Finding Sarah and Mary, Jacqueline Jones Royster combines memoir, family lore, DNA data, local history, and national history to create an ancestral history narrative. Surveying a forty-year journey of discovery, Jones Royster weaves and reweaves data and details corralled from multiple sources and anchors the narrative with two women: Sarah Ashe (c. 1740–1820), a maternal ancestor, and Mary Craddock Wilson (1825–1907), a paternal ancestor. With these two women as anchor points, the volume offers a view of the lives and legacies of ordinary folk in the making and shaping of an American story and demonstrates the necessity of broadening, deepening, and often upending the vision in order to see how our ancestors lived. Finding Sarah and Mary offers a clearer and more vibrant understanding of what it has meant for people of African descent to live and work in a nation that often ignores them or leaves them out of their own story.

Mary Magdalene's Daughter: The Story of Sarah
A beautiful story of the Way of Love portrayed by the daughter of Mary Magdalene and Jesus of Nazareth.The story revealed in this book was transmitted directly to the author by Mary Magdalene's previously unknown daughter, Sarah, who shares the Pleiadian perspective of the true mission of her family-Jesus of Nazareth, his mother, Mary, his wife, Mary Magdalene, and his two children, Sarah and Timaeus. Sarah gives us an inside look at their family's trials and true purpose in coming to Earth from the Stars to help humanity evolve and grow through living in the true Pleiadian Way of Love. This channelled New Age message from Sarah, the daughter of Jesus of Nazareth and Mary Magdalene, was given to the author, Pia Orleane, Ph.D., to reveal the Pleiadian wisdom of the Way of Love. Sarah was taught the principles of Love and the truth about Ascension by her grandmother, Mother Mary, her father, Jesus of Nazareth, and her mother, Mary Magdalene. Her angelic and Pleiadian light shines out through every word. Read this book to change your life forever

Sarah Kemble Knights Reisebeschreibungen Im Vergleich Zu Mary Rowlandsons Gefangenschaftsbericht
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Amerikanistik - Literatur, Note: 2,3, Universit t Hamburg (IAA), Veranstaltung: Saint and Sinners, Rogues and Rascals: Early American Narratives, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In nachfolgender Arbeit steht der Vergleich zweier Berichterstattungen aus dem literarischen Bereich der captivity narrative im Fokus, welche aus der femininen Sichtweise von gefangenen Frauen zur Zeit des Puritanismus in Amerika geschrieben worden sind. Zum einen handelt es sich um den Gefangenschaftsbericht von Mary Rowlandson (1676) und zum anderen um den Reisebericht von Sarah Kemble Knight (1704). Obwohl zwischen beiden Berichten eine geringe Zeitspanne von drei ig Jahren liegt, unterscheiden sich die Darstellungen in ihrer Erlebniswelt fundamental. Beide Reportagen erm glichen dem Leser einen Einblick in die Anfangszeit Amerikas. In wie fern sich dieses Leben in Bezug auf den Einzelnen unterschied und in gewissen Punkten glich, stellt einen Grund f r den unternommenen Vergleich dar. Wie das allt gliche Leben in Amerika um 1700 n.Chr. pr zise aussah, wovon es beeinflusst wurde, ist anhand ausgew hlter Beispiele gleichfalls Gegenstand der Untersuchung. Begonnen wird mit der n heren Vorstellung von Sarah Kemble Knights Erz hlstil. Dieser spielt eine tragende Rolle in der Art ihrer Berichterstattung. Dem folgt die direkte inhaltliche Gegen berstellung beider Texte. Im Anschluss daran folgt die intensive Besch ftigung mit ausgew hlten Themen; namentlich der Darstellung der Wildnis in beiden Berichten und deren Hervorhebung von Unterschieden und Gemeinsamkeiten. Gegenstand der weiteren Analyse ist die Pr senz und Rezeption indianischer V lker. Da die Rezeption der Ureinwohner Amerikas mit der damaligen puritanischen Sichtweise auf dieses Volk unabdingbar verkn pft ist, wird auf diesen Glauben, insbesondere dessen Manifestation in den Berichterstattungen von Rowlandson und Knight, gleichfalls eingegangen.
