OCL directs attention to the logics and feasibilities anterior to the crafting of constitutional text. The Federalist Papers is thoroughly committed to exploring these logics – spatial, discrete and predicate – insofar as the format (two thousand word articles in newspapers, offering comment on issues-of-the-day, especially ratification of the proposed Philadelphia constitution) will permit. The ninety-three ‘hits’ on ‘science,’ ‘logic,’ ‘math-,’ ‘abstract,’ ‘theory,’ and so forth receive due attention.
