How do we look compared to the values the founders wanted to see the republic they created embody? This class will read some of the seminal texts of revolutionary era--Common Sense, the Declaration of Independence, letters and articles--with a view to thinking about life, liberty, happiness, equality, security, and so forth, with one eye on what they meant to the founders, and another on how America today would look to them. Readings distributed by email and in paper; $5 copy fee included in course fee.
