This collection of essays, the result of a John Marshall Symposium
held in conjunction with the state of West Virginia's celebration
of the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution, examines the
contributions of John Marshall and the early Supreme Court from a
variety of political and methodological perspectives that have been
encouraged by current approaches to constitutional theory and
history. It fills a gap in analysis of the constitutional
foundations laid by the Marshall Court. It reflects the
continuities and changes that have transpired in legal scholarship
and political philosophy over the last three decades. Divided into
analyses of Marshall's legal decisions, his political philosophy,
and his methods of legal interpretation, the essays represent a
strong and healthy diversity of opinion on Marshall's contribution
to American political and legal development. The essays consider
the question of how Marshall's judicial reasoning can be best
applied to the continuing process of interpreting the Constitution.
Marshall's contributions thus become the starting point for an
exercise in political engagement. While often celebrating
Marshall's achievements, the contributors attempt to move beyond
mere celebration toward a critical analysis of constitutional
meaning and political philosophy. Legal scholars and historians
alike will welcome this cogent collection and the insight it
provides into the early development of constitutional thought and
interpretation.
