Comparing Jefferson Paul Finkleman and Henry Wiencek have two opposite opinions of Thomas Jefferson. That is apparent in just the titles of their articles. Wiencek?s article is titled ?Master of Monticello? and Finkleman?s is ?The Monster of Monticello.? Wiencek takes twelve pages to paint Thomas Jefferson in a positive light, whereas Finkleman takes only two and a half to show what a ?creepy, brutal, hypocrite? (Finkleman 1) Jefferson was.
