RT Book T1 Church, state, and original intent A1 Drakeman, Donald L. LA English PP Cambridge U.K. New York, N.Y PB Cambridge University Press YR 2010 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1735111236 AB Donald L. Drakeman describes the ways in which Supreme Court justices have portrayed the Framers' actions in a light favoring their own views about how church and state should be separated. He then marshals the historical evidence, leading to a surprising conclusion about the original meaning of the First Amendment's establishment clause: the framers originally intended the establishment clause only as a prohibition against a single national church. --from publisher description AB Introduction -- Reynolds : the historical construction of constitutional reality -- Everson : a case of premeditated law office history -- The battle for the historical high ground -- Original meanings : where is the historical high ground? -- Incorporating originalism -- Conclusion.
