Charles Lincoln interprets the U.S. Constitution through the mythic and psychological lens of Georges Dumézil's trifunctional framework - priest, warrior, and producer - linking it to thinkers like Homer, Plato, Freud, and Montesquieu.

Rather than viewing the federal structure as a mere legal arrangement, the book reveals how judicial, executive, and legislative powers reflect enduring cultural archetypes, offering a fresh perspective on constitutional legitimacy, the separation of powers, and civic identity.
