Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Revised Edition. AC2 - A revised edition hardcover book in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has light rubbing on top of spine, 1/8 inch rub spot on bottom right corner of front cover and light shelf wear. Book has light discoloration, small writing on first page, and very light shelf wear on top and bottom. Although not marked in any way, this copy comes from the personal collection of Otto Penzler, legendary editor and founder of the Mysterious Press, an award-winning icon in the genre. 8.75"x6", 141 pages. The most famous of early American novelists, Charles Brockden Brown wrote six novels in four years, a period of intense creative activity. His use of Gothic mode to reveal the inner life of his protagonists prefigured the work of Poe, Hawthorne, and James and set the stage for the increasing importance of the Gothic novel in American literature. Though also a prolific writer of pamphlets and magazine articles, Brown is best remembered for his novels, for it is in these often fast-paced and suspenseful narratives- encompassing the intellectual ferment of the 1790s and the extremes of radical politics, as well as offering absorbing depictions of abnormal mental states in the horrors of yellow fever-that his ideas were most fully realized. Charles Brockden Brown's unique place as the first major writer in American letters has made him of increasing importance to students and teachers of American literature. In Charles Brockden Brown, Revised Edition, Donald A. Ringe returns to his 1965 volume to explore Brown's formative role in American literature as well as the unique style and vision evident in his narratives. In tracing the development of religious, political, epistemological, and psychological themes in Brown's work, Ringe provides a formalist reading of each of the six novels, from Wieland, his first and most famous, to Ormond, Arthur Mervyn, Edgar Huntly, Clara Howard, and Jane Talbot, his last. One of the few comprehensive introductions to Brown's lasting achievement and seminal role in the development of national literature. Charles Brockden Brown, Revised Edition refers to the only modern scholarly edition of Brown's writings, the six-volume Bicentennial Edition, and includes a wealth of new biographical and historical information. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
