Very few advanced societies in or before could be described as self-governing. The history of the world was a history of emperors, kings, princes, dukes, czars, sultans, mogul lords, tribal chieftains, and the like.
Among advanced civilizations, even those few societies that were moderately self-governing never had anything like a style written constitution. In many places— including eighteenth-century Britain —the fundamental rules and norms governing the system had never been reduced to a single comprehensive text, much less a relatively short and readable one that had been democratically approved in some manner and made generally available to members of society.
Mastering the vaunted British Constitution required long years of close study of many sources, including a slew of important judicial opinions in scattered reports, a library of learned treatises, a host of statutory enactments, and a plethora of administrative and procedural arcana. Many of the individual items in this hodgepodge were written in thick and ponderous English, if written in English at all as distinct from Latin or law-French.
Much of this unwritten Constitution had deep roots in hereditary political powers of kings and noblemen. Ancient democracies at times claimed written constitutions, Athens most famously. But the best known version of the ancient Athenian Constitution was written by one man Solon, the lawgiver ; was never voted upon after its announcement; and was proclaimed by the lawgiver to be unamendable for a hundred years.
In ancient Sparta, the lawgiver Lycurgus had contrived to make his constitution permanently unamendable. In , state after state, building on each other in self-conscious conversational fashion, introduced the world to an entirely different constitutional model. This document, an American-style constitution, would typically identify fundamental rights and map out the basic schema of governmental power.
The schema might well privilege property, including property in slaves , and might also exalt native white men over all others, but did not in any other way confer political authority based on hereditary birth status. Whether or not these short documents explicitly said so, and even if they seemed to say otherwise, these texts quickly came to be understood as generally amendable at any time by a broad popular majority.
Virginia took the lead in , issuing a new and influential constitution at the end of June. Even before the Declaration of Rights was finalized, Americans were talking about it, and not just in Virginia.
On June 1, the Virginia Gazette in Williamsburg published a committee draft of the document, which had been spearheaded by planter George Mason.
Over the next week and a half, this draft made its way to Philadelphia, where it appeared in at least four newspapers—the Pennsylvania Evening Post , the Pennsylvania Ledger , the Pennsylvania Journal , and the Pennsylvania Gazette.
