Why I Think the Federalist Papers Could Be Written by Others

Why I Think the Federalist Papers Could Be Written by OthersThere are two major reasons why I think that there is a possibility that the writers of the Federalist Papers are not who they claim to be. One reason is the fact that most, if not all, the writers were intimately familiar with one another and would know if they had plagiarized. The other reason is that their style of writing is so different from their common counterpart, the New York Times style of writing.What I mean by this is that the style of writing in the Federalist Papers is very unique. Whereas, they would have been used by regular publishers to market new ideas, they are written in a very direct manner, while at the same time, they aren't so direct as to make it difficult for regular readers to grasp the important information. It is this manner of writing that seems to be more common in political writings. And, of course, we know that with the consistent use of use, any ideas would be familiar to the authors, since they would have repeated it or heard it before.I think there are two main ways that one can prove that the Federalist Papers is not by Federalists, but that they are written by someone else. The first way is the use of the word Federalist, which seems to be unique to the writings.The second way to prove that these are not by Federalists is simply by going back and reading the articles themselves to find if there is an etymology attached to the word. Etymology is where you do something very simple. You look for the meaning behind words like genus and take notes as you go. You never stop to make a determination as to whether or not the words mean what you are looking for.When you read the Federalist Papers, they are worded in very simple terms. While they do seem to be using Latin terms, it appears that they are still talking about Latin ideas and not modern day concepts. This makes me think that these are by writers who are familiar with each other and have done a great deal of work together.They use the word Federalist in conjunction with English words and phrases that are commonly used in political writing. And, one thing that always baffles me is when they use the term 'express' rather than 'federalize'. There is a difference between express and federalize.Also, one other very interesting thing that I think that you should keep in mind when looking at the Federalist Papers is the fact that one of the writers of the Federalist Papers claims that Thomas Jefferson was actually there when he wrote some of the writings. Now, he did state that Jefferson was involved in the writing process, but he also stated that he was not there, but that he helped during the writing process.Now, what he was referring to was the fact that he felt that the writers of the Federalist Papers were in good company. And, he felt that they were in good company because Jefferson was one of the most respected Founding Fathers. Thus, in his mind, the writers of the Federalist Papers were v ery much in the same company and therefore, his comments about the writers of the Federalist Papers being in good company were completely justified.
