Mutual regard and affection, born in the shared experience of fighting for the cause of independence, eroded steadily amid the early Republic\u2019s changing political and diplomatic landscape. The resulting estrangement revealed much of the character of both men.<\/p>\n<p>The emergence of Federalist and Republican factions during Washington\u2019s presidential administration enflamed both domestic and foreign affairs. Monroe\u2019s first diplomatic mission to France was a casualty of this partisan divide. His advocacy of Republican principles and the traditional alliance with France ran counter to the Federalists\u2019 goal of improving relations with Great Britain. Recalled from his post in disgrace, Monroe aired his grievances with Washington publicly and received harsh criticism in return. The rift between the two men, personally distressing to both, was never repaired. <\/p>\n<p>Or was it? Monroe\u2019s presidency echoed symbols and values evident in that of Washington: popular tours of the country, efforts to mitigate party divisions, and a foreign policy aimed at insulating the United States from entanglements in European conflicts. Perhaps the Revolutionary Rift between George Washington and James Monroe was, in the end, healed.<\/p>\n<p>For further reading on James Monroe and George Washington, see <a href=\"https:\/\/fredericksburg.com\/opinion\/commentary-george-washingtons-complex-relationship-with-james-monroe\/article_48aae520-9de2-506a-95c2-f00223588601.html\"><em>an op-ed by Scott Harris<\/em><\/a>, published in the <cite>Free Lance-Star<\/cite> on January 16, 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"lectureSpeaker\" style=\"padding-top: 1em;\">Speaker: Scott Harris<\/h2>\n<div class=\"speakerInfo\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatlives\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/11\/Scott-Harris-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail alignleft\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" style=\"\" srcset=\"\/\/www.umw.edu\/greatlives\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/11\/Scott-Harris-150x150.jpg 150w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/greatlives\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/11\/Scott-Harris-50x50.jpg 50w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/greatlives\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/11\/Scott-Harris-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>\n<p>Scott H.
