Synopsis
In The Mind of Thomas Jefferson, one of the foremost historians of Jefferson and his time, Peter S. Onuf, offers a collection of essays that seeks to historicize one of our nation's founding fathers. Challenging current attempts to appropriate Jefferson to serve all manner of contemporary political agendas, Onuf argues that historians must look at Jefferson's language and life within the context of his own place and time. In this effort to restore Jefferson to his own world, Onuf reconnects that world to ours, providing a fresh look at the distinction between private and public aspects of his character that Jefferson himself took such pains to cultivate. Breaking through Jefferson's alleged opacity as a person by collapsing the contemporary interpretive frameworks often used to diagnose his psychological and moral states, Onuf raises new questions about what was on Jefferson's mind as he looked toward an uncertain future. Particularly striking is his argument that Jefferson's character as a moralist is nowhere more evident, ironically, than in his engagement with the institution of slavery. At once reinvigorating the tension between past and present and offering a new way to view our connection to one of our nation's founders, The Mind of Thomas Jefferson helps redefine both Jefferson and his time and American nationhood., Offers a collection of essays that seeks to historicize one of our nation's founding fathers.

- f***t (379)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaThis seller's price for the book I wanted was a little bit higher than other sellers, but the listing said it would be here in 2 to 4 days, unlike other sellers. I was leaving on a cruise in 3 days so I was really hoping to take this book with me. I am very grateful to say it arrived on Friday for my Saturday morning departure. I ordered another book right before I ordered this one and it says it will arrive on Wednesday. Very worth the small amount more to have it in time!
