Name: Wiltshire , Susan Lord
Title: "Jefferson, Calhoun, and the Slavery Debate: The Classics and the Two Minds of the South."

Publication: Southern Humanities Review
Volume: 11
Date: 1977
Pages: 33-40
Notes: Argues for two classical traditions in the South; one associated with the Enlightenment, looking to antiquity for models of freedom, the other looking for sanctions to maintain the status quo. TJ and Calhoun represent these.

Name: Wise , Jennings C.
Title: The Legacy of Jefferson: An Appeal to the Alumni of the University

Publication: n.p.
Date: n.d.
Pages: pp. 15
Notes: Claims TJ was an occult "mystic" of the cabbalistic, Masonic variety, e.g. the ten pavilions at the University symbolize "the ten Sephirothal emanations of the Great Wisdom." This lore needs to be taught in the law school in order to combat "the Browders and Tugwells" of the author's day.

His memoir (not referred to as an autobiography until the 20th century) shows how TJ's "life is, first of all, his writing." He suppresses his self "in order to make a life of representation and a representative life." He tends "toward seeing his life as a result of the history he has made by writing." Goes on to infer a "symbolic narrative" in the Autobiography, concerned with parricides and patrimonies.
