“Gordon Wood has devoted his career to incorporating the shifting ideas and social and political developments defining the early American Republic into a convincing and riveting whole. His scholarship is distinguished by its grasp of the monographs about the Founding era as well as his extensive use of primary documents. His writing fuses social, intellectual, and political history seamlessly together, and his books are exquisitely written, armed with the power of the best historical narratives.” – by Matthew Dallek for National Humanities Medal, 2010

In Common Sense In Law Vinogradoff’s intent was to give a simple yet knowledgeable introduction on the main principles of jurisprudence. He notes that law is based on common sense and may be followed without difficulty and we all must try to acquire some knowledge of the law in order to understand the insight into the processes in which it is formed and administered.

First published in 1688, Thomasius’s “Institutiones jurisprudentiae divinae” (Institutes of Divine Jurisprudence) attempted to draw a clear distinction between natural and revealed law and to emphasize that human reason was able to know the precepts of natural law without the aid of Scripture. Thomasius also argued that his orthodox Lutheran opponents had failed to understand this distinction and thereby had confused reason and Scripture.

On May 8, 1701, the curious parties gathered at the Old-Bailey for what was to be the trial for “Murder and Piracy upon the High Seas” of the infamous Captain Kidd. Over the next few days, the jury would hear the case of Mr. William Kidd, be presented with his “not guilty” defense, and survey the evidence. This is a classic case of English common law, from which the American legal system draws its roots. It would end in his hanging and the display of his corpse so every passerby would be aware of the severity of the offense of piracy. The Trial of Captain Kidd is the real-life embodiment of the excitement in your favorite childhood pirate stories, interwoven through a somber example of what happens to those who act as if they are excepted from the laws of their community. Follow the timeless tale through the voice of each character in this famous case!

In one of the most notorious episodes of the McCarthy era, the eminent physicist Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer, director of the Los Alamos Laboratory during WWII, head of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, and adviser to the Atomic Energy Commission, was stripped of his security clearance, stemming from an accusation that he was a soviet spy. Oppenheimer had, in fact, never revealed any secrets, but among other things his opposition to the development of the hydrogen bomb and past associations with Communists and Communist sympathizers were enough to brand him as a traitor. In the spring of 1954, closed hearings were held by the Personnel Security Board to determine Oppenheimer’s Loyalty.
