SynopsisCharles Brockden Brown (1771-1810), a prolific and often controversial writer, has long been recognized as a significant figure in U.S. literary and cultural history. Brown's prose fiction, periodical writings, historiography, and pamphlets take part in the full range of political, literary, scientific, and other debates that form the cultural landscape of the first decades of the American republic from 1790 to 1810. Scholarship in the twentieth century developed a general understanding of Brown as an ambitious novelist but only began to explore the full extent of his writings and the issues they raise. Revising Charles Brockden Brown explores the writer as a key figure for understanding the cultural politics of this crucial era of U.S. and Atlantic history. Using contemporary critical models drawn from history, interdisciplinary cultural studies, postcolonial studies, gender and queer theory, and other areas, the essays in this collection bring Brown studies into the twenty-first century, synthesizing and extending the implications of the upsurge in Brown scholarship that has occurred over the last twenty years. These essays explore Brown in his own right and as a window onto the social dynamics of the early republic, as a participant in and commentator on the tumultuous conflicts and transformations of this postrevolutionary moment. These studies focus on the period's political and ideological discourses in "Revolution and Republican Communities," address questions concerning the construction of subjectivity and gender in "Gender and Sexuality," and explore the later development of Brown's intellectual origins in the radical enlightenment in the "Cultural Politics of the Later Years."
