Book excerpt: Excerpt from Construction Construed, and Constitutions Vindicated The period is, indeed, by no means an agreeable one. It borrows new gloom from the apathy which seems to reign over so many of our sister states. The very sound of State Rights is scarcely ever heard among them; and by many of their eminent politicians, it is only heard to be mocked at. But a good citizen'will never despair of the republick. Among these good citizens, is John Taylor, of Caroline. Penetrated by the conviction, that the constitution is in danger; that the balance has seriously inclined towards the side of consolidation; he comes forward to commune with his countrymen, and to state to them frankly his ima pressions and his fears.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supreme Court in United States History, Vol. 2 of 3: 1821-1855 Three statesmen of Virginia led the attempt to awaken the people to the crisis which impended. In 1820, John Taylor Of Virginia issued his famous Construction Construed and Constitution Vindicated, which with his New Vistas of the Constitution published in 1823, con stituted for many years the political Bible of the extreme state-rights school. The Missouri question is prob ably not yet closed; the principle on which it turns is certainly not settled. Further attempts are to be made to wrest from the new States about to enter into the American Confederacy the power of regulating their own concerns. The tariff question is again to be agi tated. The usurpation of a Federal power over roads and canals is again to be attempted and again to be reprobated. That charter (of the Bank) has been justified by the Supreme Court, on principles so bold and alarming, that no man who loves the Con stitution can fold his arms in apathy principles calculated to give the tone to an acquiescent people, to change the Whole face of our Government, and to gen erate a thousand measures which the framers Of the Constitution never anticipated. The period bor rows new gloom from the apathy which seems to reign over SO many of our sister States. The very sound of state-rights is scarcely ever heard among them. In his Tyranny Unmasked, in 1822, Taylor denounced the judicial power, and set forth the doctrine that whenever the Constitution Operates upon collisions between individuals, it is to be construed by the Court; but when it operates upon collision between political departments, it is not to be construed by the Court.

Download or read book An Inquiry Into the Principles and Policy of the Government of the United States written by John of Caroline Taylor and published by Lawbook Exchange Limited. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1814, this is a reprint of the Yale University Press 1950 edition with an introduction by Roy Franklin Nichols. 562 pp. Taylor wrote this important work in 1814 as a reply to John Adams's Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America. Unlike Adams, he rejects the concept of "a natural aristocracy" of "paper and patronage" and a federal government based on a system of debt and taxes. He considers the American government to be one of divided powers responsible to the sovereign people alone. Opposed to the extent of power awarded to the executive office, he calls for shorter terms for the president and all elected officers. Charles Beard said this work "deserves to rank among the two or three really historic contributions to political science which have been produced in the United States." JOHN TAYLOR [1753-1824] was known as "John Taylor of Caroline County, Virginia." He served in the Continental Army and later in the Virginia House of Delegates, then served three terms as a member of the United States Senate. He is considered to be one of the nation's greatest philosophers of agrarian liberalism. He was one of the nation's first proponents of states' rights. His works include New Views of the Constitution of the United States (1823), Construction Construed, and Constitutions Vindicated (1820) and A Defence of the Measures of the Administration of Thomas Jefferson. By Curtius (1804), an argument in favor of the achievements of the first Jefferson administration.
Download or read book Conjectures of Order written by Michael O'Brien and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this magisterial history of intellectual life, Michael O'Brien analyzes the lives and works of antebellum Southern thinkers and reintegrates the South into the larger tradition of American and European intellectual history. O'Brien finds that the evolution of Southern intellectual life paralleled and modified developments across the Atlantic by moving from a late Enlightenment sensibility to Romanticism and, lastly, to an early form of realism. Volume 1 describes the social underpinnings of the Southern intellect by examining patterns of travel and migration; the formation of ideas on race, gender, ethnicity, locality, and class; and the structures of discourse, expressed in manuscripts and print culture. In Volume 2, O'Brien looks at the genres that became characteristic of Southern thought. Throughout, he pays careful attention to the many individuals who fashioned the Southern mind, including John C. Calhoun, Louisa McCord, James Henley Thornwell, and George Fitzhugh. Placing the South in the larger tradition of American and European intellectual history while recovering the contributions of numerous influential thinkers and writers, O'Brien's masterwork demonstrates the sophistication and complexity of Southern intellectual life before 1860.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Taylor's conception of government is based on the Lockean view that people are free, equal, and independent individuals who possess natural rights and should have the moral liberty to choose any form of government that suits them, without obligation to hereditary rulers or established social classes." "When John Taylor of Caroline is viewed from the twin perspectives of Lockeanism and Classical Republicanism, his ideas provide inspiration for any who are concerned about homogenization of culture and loss of individual freedom, nationally and internationally."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book The Roots of American Individualism written by Alex Zakaras and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-20 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A panoramic history of American individualism from its nineteenth-century origins to today’s bitterly divided politics Individualism is a defining feature of American public life. Its influence is pervasive today, with liberals and conservatives alike promising to expand personal freedom and defend individual rights against unwanted intrusion, be it from big government, big corporations, or intolerant majorities. The Roots of American Individualism traces the origins of individualist ideas to the turbulent political controversies of the Jacksonian era (1820–1850) and explores their enduring influence on American politics and culture. Alex Zakaras plunges readers into the spirited and rancorous political debates of Andrew Jackson’s America, drawing on the stump speeches, newspaper editorials, magazine articles, and sermons that captivated mass audiences and shaped partisan identities. He shows how these debates popularized three powerful myths that celebrated the young nation as an exceptional land of liberty: the myth of the independent proprietor, the myth of the rights-bearer, and the myth of the self-made man. The Roots of American Individualism reveals how generations of politicians, pundits, and provocateurs have invoked these myths for competing political purposes. Time and again, the myths were used to determine who would enjoy equal rights and freedoms and who would not. They also conjured up heavily idealized, apolitical visions of social harmony and boundless opportunity, typically centered on the free market, that have distorted American political thought to this day.
