  • Mary Sarah Bilder, Female Genius

    Open AccessRosemarie ZagarriARTICLEAmerican Journal of Legal History2023

    As Mary Sarah Bilder superbly demonstrated in her Bancroft prize-winning book, Madison’s Hand: Revising the Constitutional Convention (2015), she is a master of fashioning a strikingly original narrative about a seemingly familiar subject. In her new book, Female Genius: Eliza Harriot and George Washington at the Dawn of the Constitution, she does so again, this time with respect to the social and gendered environment in which the US Constitution…

  • Exceptional Imperialism and Imperial Exceptionalism

    Rosemarie ZagarriARTICLEDiplomatic History2014

    In this highly ambitious work, sociologist Julian Go seeks to demolish the myth of American exceptionalism as it pertains to the question of empire. For too long, Go argues, Americans—and American foreign policy makers, in particular—have convinced themselves that the United States neither harbored imperial aspirations nor pursued an imperialist foreign policy. Unlike other nations, the country's liberal democratic institutions and unique nationa…

  • Brian Steele. Thomas Jefferson and American Nationhood

    Rosemarie ZagarriARTICLEThe American Historical Review2014

    Brian Steele concludes the introduction to his book by noting that although “the world may not need another book about Thomas Jefferson,” he hopes this one “may offer a way of envisioning [Jefferson] anew, of questioning our shibboleths not only about him but also about ourselves” (p. 10). Steele's effort succeeds brilliantly. By focusing on Jefferson's understanding of the meaning of nationhood and national identity, Steele brings to light conti…

  • Response to Woody Holton's “Primitive Accumulation”

    Rosemarie ZagarriARTICLELabor Studies in Working-Class…2009

    Holton's maintains that in explaining the origins of the U.S. Constitution historians have emphasized the concerns expressed by elites while overlooking the issues that most troubled large numbers of “ordinary” Americans. The strength of the argument is that Holton gives voice to the protests and grievances of small farmers and debtors, who believed that the state governments were imposing oppressive and unjust taxes during the 1780s. Yet his arg…

  • Catharine Macaulay and Mercy Otis Warren

    Rosemarie ZagarriARTICLEJournal of American History2007

    Kate Davies's book offers a much-needed analysis of the lives and careers of the two most eminent women historians of their time, Catherine Macaulay and Mercy Otis Warren. Macaulay, of course, was the author of a multivolume history of England that celebrated the Whig ascendancy and lambasted corruption in both the Crown and Parliament. Warren, besides authoring numerous political poems and plays against British tyranny in the 1760s and 1770s, la…

  • These Fiery Frenchified Dames

    Rosemarie Zagarri, Susan BransonARTICLEJournal of American History2002Citada por: 2

    Susan Branson's These Fiery Frenchified Dames examines the political role of women in Philadelphia during the decades following the American Revolution. For too long, she argues, historians have focused on formal institutions of governance and elite male political actors at the expense of examining the larger public sphere. Conceived more broadly, politics at that time included print culture, popular mobilization, theatrical productions, and priv…

    Rosemarie ZagarriARTICLEThe William and Mary Quarterly1998Citada por: 2

    vative and controversial idea: women along with men should be regarded as the bearers of rights. In the wake of the American Revolution and especially after the publication of Mary Wollstonecraft's Vindication of the Rights of Woman (I792), women gained a dignity and an esteem that had hitherto been denied them-though the exact nature of their was, as we shall see, a matter still to be determined. The revelers, however, did something more. They m…

    Rosemarie Zagarri, Robert A GrossARTICLEReviews in American History1994

    Both for people at the time and for historians since, Shays' Rebellion has offered a prime example of the possibilities-and the perils-of revolutionary thinking. Throughout the fall of 1786 and the winter of 1787, the Shaysites of western Massachusetts proclaimed themselves to be the true heirs of the American Revolution. Like the patriots, they said, they opposed unjust taxation policies levied by a distant and unresponsive legislature. Like the…

As wives and mothers, women were seen to make an essential, though indirect, contribution to body politic. According to Linda Kerber,…
