2020-01 - Charles Brockden Brown, pioneer voice of America. Clark, David Lee (Author) 1952, 363 Pages.
Outside of the novels of Charles Brockden Brown this biography marks the beginning of my quest to become the Charles Brockden Brown scholar that I wanted to talk too. This is a normal biography, as biographies go. It does though have a point of view rooted in the time of its creation … the late 1940’s and early 1950’s. Allusions to McCarthyism and an attempt to tie events of post-Revolutionary War to the cultural current of post-WWII. The book as biography though is standard fare … gets a little hagiographic while still giving nod to critical voices. I appreciate the inclusion of passages and excerpts from non-novel writings of Charles Brockden Brown. I took about eight pages of reader’s notes. It was a good general introduction. I will be using the bibliography for further study. Interesting note about interlibrary loans in our library system … there was a more recent reprint of this book but it was too new to request so the circulation librarian had to find this older version (which is what I requested). This book came from Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
