Charles A. Beard is not a current news topic in the usual sense; he was an American historian who died in 1948. The most recent material available about him is retrospective scholarship and biographies, not breaking news.[1][5]
Recent pages describe Beard as a major progressive historian, best known for An Economic Interpretation of the Constitution and for his influence on 20th-century American historiography. They also note that scholarly interest in his work has revived in later years, especially around his methods and his analysis of U.S. foreign policy.[2][3][5][7]
Beard resigned from Columbia University in 1917 in protest over academic freedom issues, and he helped found the New School for Social Research. He served as president of the American Historical Association in 1933. He died in New Haven, Connecticut, on September 1, 1948.[3][5][1][2]
