On March 4th, 1789, New York City celebrated the date set for the opening of the First Federal Congress. Inventing Congress presents a narrative on the interrelated intellectual, institutional, cultural, and political components. Divided into two sections, the first section covers the origins and discusses how the founders' understanding of classical Greek and Roman republics shaped their thinking and the political lessons learned.
The second section is concerned with the establishment of the First Federal Congress. It examines several aspects of the most important Congress in history, its relationship to the press, morality, the arts and sciences, and philosophy.
