Originalism in the Blogs
Michael Ramsey
Saul Cornell goes a couple of rounds with Mike Rappaport and experiences total meltdown. Mary Dudziak comments at Legal History Blog: How Not to Criticize Originalism.
My take: Professor Cornell had some interesting points to make about eighteenth-century interpretation in the second half of this article, but he's taking this debate way too personally, and it shows in a number of respects. Saul, it's an academic discussion. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here.
