Charles Brockden Brown (1771-1810) was a key writer of the
revolutionary era and early U.S. republic, known for his landmark
novels and other writings in a variety of genres. The Collected
Writings of Charles Brockden Brown presents all of Brown's
non-novelistic writings-letters, political pamphlets, fictions,
periodical writings, historical writings, and poety-in a
seven-volume scholarly set. This series' volumes are edited to the
highest scholarly standards and will bear the seal of the Modern
Language Association Committee on Scholarly Editions (MLA-CSE).
Political Pamphlets, volume 4 of the series, brings together, for
the first time, the three political pamphlets and related writings
of Charles Brockden Brown. While Brown is well known as a novelist
and editor, his pamphlets addressing the Louisiana Question and
Jefferson's Embargo are here presented and contextualized in terms
of the period's geopolitical developments and the newspaper
polemics that were their immediate context. Each edited text
provides detailed information concerning publication history,
provenance, and attribution, along with extensive scholarly
annotation. A Historical Essay locates the pamphlets in the wider
contexts of Brown's literary career, the print culture of the
Revolutionary Atlantic world, and the literary history of the
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, while a Textual Essay provides
full bibliographical information on the sources for all copy-texts,
as well as extensive description of the editorial protocols. The
volume substantially reshapes our understanding of Brown's corpus
and development, and provides insights into the relations of
literary, journalistic, and political writing during the Jefferson
and Madison administrations. The Committee on Scholarly Editions of
the Modern Language Association has awarded the volume a seal of
certification as an MLA Approved Scholarly Edition.
