 James Madison - encyclopedia article about James Madison.
Madison was the best prepared delegate at the Constitutional Convention, and his overall influence at Philadelphia in 1787 has led some historians to call him the "Father of the Constitution." Madison called for a strong central government with a bicameral legislature.
In the 1780s, Madison helped convince the political leaders of the time to call for a convention to replace the ineffective Articles of Confederation.
In this capacity he became a prominent figure in Virginia state politics, helping to draft their declaration of religious freedom and persuading Virginia to give their northwestern territories (consisting of most of modern-day Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee) to the Continental Congress.

 The Critical Period: America in the 1780s
y the mid 1780s, many of country’s most influential leaders became convinced that state legislatures had become the greatest source of tyranny in America.
Nathaniel Gorham of Massachusetts described Rhode Island's legislature as "a full illustration...of the length to which a public body may carry wickedness and cabal."

The principal influence on Hays's intellectual development during the 1780s was the Reverend Robert Robinson (1735-1790), to his admirers distinguished by "his earnest love of truth, and laborious search after it," as well his espousal of "unlimited toleration" (qtd.

 The Dutch Patriot Movement of the 1780s
The Patriot leaders were suspicious and uneasy diplomats however, and there was little chance for a serious alliance with the strife-torn France of the 1780s anyhow.

 demode: 1780s robe a l'anglaise
This project, a STRIPED (oooo) 1780s robe à l'anglaise, is next on the list -- I've been lusting over this period (and this dress) for more than a few years now, and the GBACG Travellers in Tuscany event is just the motivation I need.
I basically drafted up a rough version of the sleeve from the 1780s fall-front gown in Janet Arnold and was impressed to find it really fit quite well -- I like the 18th c.
It seems that the proper skirt underpinnings for the 1780s are open to debate -- what seems most likely is a bumroll: Nancy Bradfield has some line drawings of them in Costume in Detail, Jean Hunnisett has a pattern in Period Costume for Stage & Screen (1500-1800).

Older textbooks described the 1780s as the "critical period" of American history.
The country, saddled with a wholly inadequate framework of government, was faced by grave threats to its independence:
Many farmers made a decisive shift away from subsistence farming toward commercial agriculture.

 demode: 1780s capote
I had originally purchased some green velvet leaves for this, but when I put them on they didn't quite work.
The crown sits right on the head size band (straw) in back but comes forward on the brim in front, and by sewing the fabric crown with the band pointing up, I managed to get enough lift in front to (here was the moment!) really create that big oversized 1780s mushroom effect.
Then I cut out the striped fabric, cut out a bias strip the size that I wanted to pleat the crown down into, and pleated the crown to the bias strip (which I turned under to create a band).

 A new start for Fredericksburg--the 1780s
The tobacco trade was declining, and ships arriving from England and Scotland no longer dominated the rhythm of town life.
But we should not be surprised to learn that the somber tone in the council minutes was not reflected in other glimpses of the 1780s.
The return of some pleasures came rather quickly--balls, fairs, and the Jockey Club races.

 Records International catalogue October 1998
Reinagle wrote four piano sonatas around 1790 while he was living in Philadelphia which are generally acclaimed as the finest surviving American instrumental works of the 18th century and which were probably the first piano sonatas written in America (they bear the influence of C.P.E. Bach's empfindsamer Stil and are in two or three movements).
Fröhlich was known mainly as a theorist and educator but his concerto (for which no date is offered by notes or encyclopedias) is of somewhat stronger stuff, reminiscent of late Haydn and middle-period Beethoven in places and, in its beautiful slow movement, of the lyricism of Schubert.
The performer plays the D major work, as well as both sets of variations on Scottish folk tunes (which date from Reinagle's residence in Glasgow in the early 1780s) on both fortepiano and a modern grand while the other two are performed only on the modern grand.
