The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.
One major difference between Beard's and Hofstadter's interpretations of the influences on the Constitution is the following.
Historian Charles Beard had a progressive interpretation of the United States Constitution and that is how he referred to it in his work "An Economic Interpretation of the Constitution." He stated that the framers of the Constitution had a personal interest in the roles they played when framing the Constitution. In the case of Richard Hofstarted, in 1868 he disqualified the interpretation of Beard, saying that he had biased his interpretation of history with his political emotions, passion, and interests. The problem with Beard -said Hofstarted- was that he couldn't separate facts with his political interests.
ONE major difference between Charles Beard's and Richard Hofstadter's interpretations of the influences on the Constitution is the emphasis placed on the ideas that influenced the drafting of the Constitution.
Charles Beard stated that the Constitution was drafted to safeguard the economic interests of the wealthy against the poor masses who instigated the American Revolution.
On the other hand, Richard Hofstadter stated that the Constitution was drafted based on the revolutionary experience to ensure that a republican system of government was achieved. The republic government signaled a complete break from the British government that "imposed taxation without representation."
Thus, the major difference between the two political historians lies in how they perceived the purpose the Constitution serves.
