Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The South Atlantic Quarterly, Vol. 4: January to October, 1905 By public opinion I mean the conscious and unconscious thinking of men about duty and conduct and the embodiment of this thinking in prevalent ideals of life in such a way as to shape the collective and individual character of a whole people. To be effective for good this public opinion must be intelligent, fearless and free. We Southerners are particularly sensitive to local and - though we are not apt to admit it - to outside public sentiment, and it is therefore important for us to enquire into our relations to our own Southern public opinion. As Southerners we ought to be proud of our people as well as proud of our common country. I believe that the mighty founders and builders of this republic were largely Southern men. George Washington, himself our greatest American, was also our greatest Southerner, and while his great gifts of mind and character were a part of his inheritance from our common English race, the peculiar type of the man was due to his membership in a Southern community and was characteristic of the best in Southern life. Jefferson, another Southerner, was the author of the Declaration of Independence; and Madison was the father of the Constitution; while Marshall left an enduring stamp upon the federal judiciary.
