Finally Iâve got it out of my system <:>
Burr : Hey, are you still pissed about the cabinet meeting ?
Hamilton : Do you think this voodoo doll looks enough like Jefferson to actually work ?
HA!
You donât even know what youâre asking me to covfefe
What you should all be impressed by is Alexander Hamiltonâs ability to limbo right under the super low bar Eliza set for him as a husbandâŚ
âJust stay alive, that would be enoughâ

Hey Guys
Sorry Iâve been so inactive on this blog for a while. I got a little overwhelmed with school and everything, but Iâm gonna try to post more this coming year. Thank you so much to everyone who follows me.
Happy new year everyone! đđâ¤ď¸
Millionth thought about âBurnâ Iâve had this month: Eliza goes for Hamiltonâs jugular â but not by repeating the insults weâve heard before, (arrogant, loud mouthed, obnoxious, son of a whore, bastard, etcâŚ) She rips Hamilton up on the thing heâs most known for, what heâs most proud of â his WRITING. His SENSELESS sentences, his SELF OBSESSED and PARANOID tone. Sheâs tearing him up about not just the CONTENT of the Reynolds Pamphlet, but the way in which he wrote it. She takes the time in the middle of her rage to mock his style, which is such a rap battle move.Â
And what is she going to do with all of the beautiful writing he gave her over the years, his letters?Â
Burn them.Â
I think about this LITERALLY of the time. About how she pushes the button she knows will kill him.
ânot only did you totally drag our names through the mud, and ruin our reputation, it wasnât. even. your. best. work.â
^^^^^^^^^ killed âem ^^^^^^^^^
Okay but that isnât even the most hardcore part:
The entire play is a fourth wall-breaking battle for narrative control of personal and professional legacy. Thatâs what itâs about. Conventional wisdom â and basic logic â states that history is written by the winners. Hamilton: An American Musical shows us the battle for that proverbial quill.
Literally the first song tells us âHis enemies destroyed his rep/America forgot himâ because up until the release of this play, Alexander Hamiltonâs legacy was mostly overlooked by the average American, largely thanks to folks like Jefferson and Madison underselling his contributions after he died.
(This is also why Jefferson isnât shy and awkward in the play. While that would have been historically accurate, the point is that the modern perception of Jefferson is that heâs a Big Fucking Deal. Because he made himself look that way.)
So the characters on stage are constantly fighting to make their version of events the version of events.
Burr is the narrator because this is his opportunity to tell his side of things. âHistory obliterates in every picture it paints, it paints me in all my mistakes.â Heâs saying that in the end he LOST the fight for narrative control. And yet â and hereâs the fucking amazing part â the mere act of explaining this to the audience CHANGES OUR PERCEPTION OF BURR and alters his place in history. God Lin is too smart for his own goddamn good.
(âHistory has its eyes on you,â Washington says, putting a very fine point on things. And if you donât think he also means thereâs an audience sitting watching this play, youâre not paying attention.)
So, letâs talk about Alexander, his obsession with legacy, and his tried and true method for controlling the narrative:
Writing.
In âHurricaneâ he says âIâll write my way out! Write everything down far as I can see! ⌠Overwhelm them with honesty! This is the eye of the hurricane, this is the only way I can protect my legacy!â
âIt doesnât workâ you might say, going by the contents of âThe Reynolds Pamphlet.â Except⌠it kinda does. âAt least he was honest with our money!â the company sings. Which was really Alexanderâs main concern, after all. Think of his priorities in âWe Knowâ where his first instinct is to gloat because âYou have nothing!â Itâs not until a beat later that he even considers Eliza.
He published the Reynolds Pamphlet because he didnât want people to think he was disloyal to the United States. His concern was with his professional legacy. And in that sense⌠he succeeded.
(He succeeded in another way, too. Listen to âSay No To This.â (God I could write a 40 page paper on that song alone.) This is where we actually hear the contents of the Reynolds Pamphlets. And how does the song begin? With Burr explicitly handing narrative control to Alexander Hamilton. âAnd Alexanderâs by himself. Iâll let him tell it.â
Every line of dialogue from Maria is prefaced with Hamilton saying âshe said.â Thatâs because HAMILTON IS WRITING HER DIALOGUE. Hamilton is creating this character of a sultry seductress in red, coming to him when he was weak and luring him to adultery. Maria Reynolds in the play not a character, sheâs a fantasy, created to excuse Hamiltonâs transgressions.
Itâs worth noting at this juncture that Maria Reynolds, the real woman, wrote her own pamphlet. No one would publish it. She was silenced. And Hamiltonâs depiction of her as a morally corrupt temptress became the dominant narrative.
So suck on that literally any time you want to fucking blame Maria for Hamiltonâs affair: good job, youâve bought into a serial adultererâs lies about a battered woman. Also donât do that, I swear to god I will come for you.)
SO. What does any of this have to do with Burn?
In the very end, itâs revealed that it wasnât Jefferson or Burr or Hamilton in control of the Almighty Narrative.
It was Eliza.
The very last second of the play is Alexander Hamilton turning Eliza to face the audience. She sees the people watching, and she gasps. Because she did this. Sheâs the reason this play exists. Sheâs the reason Lin Manuel Miranda is telling us a damn thing about Alexander Hamilton, sheâs the reason Hamilton got a massively popular zeitgeist musical.
Now. Throughout the course of the play Eliza sees all these people weaving their important stories and she thinks sheâs somehow⌠outside. Sheâs not a statesman, sheâs not brilliant like Angelica, sheâs just a wife and a mother and she has no place among these giants. At one point she LITERALLY ASKS HER HUSBAND TO BE INCLUDED IâM GONNA SCREAM.
And yet she never had to ask. She was in control the whole time.
And how, how did she do it? How did she âkeepâ Alexanderâs âflame?â By collecting and preserving everything he WROTE, of course. Making sense of it all. She spent fifty years on the project. Everything she collected BECAME THE NARRATIVE.
But you know what wasnât in there?
Thatâs right: those letters she burned.
So she didnât just insult him, oh noooo. Eliza WHOLESALE OBLITERATED A PIECE OF ALEXANDER HAMILTON FROM THE NARRATIVE.
And not just any piece. âYou built me palaces out of paragraphs, you built cathedrals,â she sings. In âHurricaneâ Hamilton lists his letters to Eliza among his greatest accomplishments, (conflating his writing them with actually BEING HER HUSBAND, god what a self-centered prick). âI wrote Eliza love letters until she fell.â
Eliza says: âIâm burning the memories, burning the letters that might have redeemed you.â
The best pieces of Alexander Hamilton: gone.
God Iâm gonna go curl up in a ball and freak out about this some more. FUCK.

OKAY I just listened to the workshop version and HOLY SHIT OKAY CAN WE JUST DISCUSS THIS A LITTLE BIT:
The amount of words in this version of this song like HOLY SHIT
â Obviously such an accusation must be met with either an immediate acknowledgement or disavowal. Now! Are you capable of such a thing?â SHIT BURR GET REKT HAMILTON
â"Dangerous with the reigns of government", wow, Surely I said something less banal, Be realistic nowâ wow hamilton very humbleÂ
âOr prepare to bleed, young manâ âYOU KNOW WHAT? I DONT LIKE YOUR TONE!â
âSorry if your life is difficult without your wifeâ ALEXANDER ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS THAT IS A LOW BLOW
His âYOURE ON!â is so much quicker than in the OBC album likE HAMMY PLS
[Full lyrics here]
I hope that what I can contribute is something that hasnât been seen before. (x)
