  • The Radical Democratic Thought of Thomas Jefferson: Politics, Space, & Action
    The Radical Democratic Thought of Thomas Jefferson: Politics, Space, & Action Dean Caivano A Dissertation Submitted To The Faculty Of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfillment Of The Requirements For The Degree Of Doctor Of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science York University Toronto, Ontario May 2019 © Dean Caivano, 2019 Abstract Thomas Jefferson has maintained an enduring legacy in the register of early American political thought. As a prolific writer and elected official, his public declarations and private letters helped to inspire revolutionary action against the British monarchy and shape the socio-political landscape of a young nation. While his placement in the American collective memory and scholarship has remained steadfast, a crucial dimension of his thinking remains unexplored. In this dissertation, I present a heterodox reading of Jefferson in order to showcase his radical understanding of politics. Although Jefferson’s political worldview is strikingly complex, marked by affinities with liberal, classical republican, Scottish, and Christian modes of thought, this interpretation reveals the radical democratic nature of his project. Primarily, this dissertation expands the possibilities of Jefferson’s thought as explored by Hannah Arendt and other thinkers, such as Richard K. Matthews and Michael Hardt. Drawing from these explicitly radical readings, I further dialogue with Jefferson’s thought through extensive archival research, which led me to engage in the theoretical and historical sources of inspiration that form and underscore his thinking. In so doing, I offer a new reading of Jefferson’s view on politics, suggesting that there contains an underlying objective, setting, and method to his unsystematic, yet innovative prescriptions concerning democracy.

How Roger’s three daughters grew into the maturity of their several lives, each one so different, Mr. Poole tells with strong and compelling beauty, touching with deep, whole-hearted conviction some of the most vital problems of our modern way of living!the home, motherhood, children, the school; all of them seen through the realization, which Roger’s dying wife made clear to him, that whatever life may bring, ‘we will live on in our children’s lives.’ The old Gale house down-town is a little fragment of a past generation existing somehow beneath the towering apartments and office-buildings of the altered city. Roger will be remembered when other figures in modern literature have been forgotten, gazing out of his window at the lights of some near-by dwelling lifting high above his home, thinking

Department of H > 5TQ/-<-| The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Date C ABSTRACT A large number of Englishmen, predominantly from the West Country and East Anglia, began the settlement of New England in 1630. In the sparsely populated North American wilderness they established a new society. The foundation for their New England community lay in the English experience which they brought to the New World. When a group of men consciously agree to form a new community it is essential that they share certain aspirations, needs and experiences. The form of this new society results from an effort to fulfill and satisfy their common characteristics. An agricultural occu• pation was the experience shared by the Englishmen who settled the town of Dorchester, Massachusetts, in 1630.

Perhaps at the end of this course you will understand how, if not why. Readings Each week everyone will read the core assignment. Beginning in the second week, each person will also select an item from the list of secondary titles; there will be no duplication of secondary readings. Generally, an individual will be free to choose the work that ~ost interests him/her, but some "volunteers" may be sacrificed to ensure that interpretive diversity prevails. All books assigned as core readings are available for purchase at the University Book Store and have also been placed on three-hour reserve at the State Historical Library for the semester. Monographs in the Library's collection are also on reserve, and non-circulating copies of a few journals (e.g. Journal of American History) live in the Reading Room. Changes in the Library's ability to handle reserve materials means that items outside these categories will not be reserved, but can be found either in the Society Library or elsewhere on campus. Written Assignments You will write three papers, 7-8 pages, typed, double-spaced. You may choose which two of the first four papers to confront, but everyone must write the final essay.

AMERICANIZATION OF THE COMMON LAW: THE INTELLECTUAL MIGRATION MEETS THE GREAT MIGRATION DAVID THOMAS KONIG* PRELUDE Americanization of the Common Law, the first of many significant monographs that William E. Nelson has produced in his career, redirected the writing of American legal history by demonstrating the explanatory power of using a com- prehensive archival database to pose, test, and advance hypotheses about legal change. Nelson had been trained to appreciate such a methodology while a grad- uate student at Harvard University, where his mentor Bernard Bailyn had begun his own academic career with studies that aggregated large amounts of data from which to draw and test creative hypotheses about Early American social and eco- nomic change.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “ target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin film ing at the upper left hand comer o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equai sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
