Charles Brockden Brown is widely considered one of early America's foremost writers, despite dying before the age of 40. His works were hailed as the predecessor of works such as James Fenimore Cooper's. Here's an excerpt from the beginning: "The following Work is delivered to the world as the first of a series of performances, which the favorable reception of this will induce the Writer to publish. His purpose is neither selfish nor temporary, but aims at the illustration of some important branches of the moral constitution of man. Whether this tale will be classed with the ordinary or...

Wieland
ISBN: 9781605975481 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Wireland of the Transformation was published in 1798 and is considered to be the first American gothic novel. The novel takes place in rural Pennsylvania in the 1760's. It is based on a true story of a murder committed by an insane farmer. A flash of light killed the farmer's fanatic father and the farmer is commanded to sacrifice his wife and children by an unearthly voice. This sacrifice will be a sign of his obedience to heaven. This is not a book for the faint of heart containing such gothic elements as spontaneous combustion, ventriloquism, and religious fanaticism!

Arthur Mervyn: Revised Edition
ISBN: 9780873387385 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Arthur Mervyn has long puzzled students and scholars with its seeming diffuseness, resulting from its original serial publication. Critics agree, however, that the power of this novel lies not so much in its portrait of "right virtue, " which was Brown's primary aim, as in its realistic descriptions of the yellow fever epidemic and the ensuing panic that swept Philadelphia in the summer of 1793. The ambiguities of Arthur Mervyn's character and the precarious nature of the revolutionary 1790s make this novel a particularly apt subject for lively discussion and future scholarship and...
