Revising Charles Brockden Brown:
Culture, Politics, and Sexuality in the Early Republic
edited by Philip Barnard, Mark L. Kamrath, Assoc. Prof. of English, and Stephen Shapiro
Univ. of Tennessee Press
ISBN: 1572332441
The essays in the collection explore Charles Brockden Brown (1771-1810), a prolific and often controversial writer who is a significant figure in U.S. literary and cultural history. The book examines Brown in his own right and as a key figure for understanding the cultural politics of this era of U.S. and Atlantic history. Using contemporary critical models drawn from areas such as history, interdisciplinary cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and gender and queer theory, the essays in this collection bring Brown studies into the 21st century and extend the implications of the upsurge in Brown scholarship that has occurred over the last twenty years.
Celestial Hitchhiker
created by Madison Ke Francis, Professor of Art
This interesting example of traditional and cutting-edge printing technology plays the romance of the dream of hitchhiking (inspired by Kerouac’s On the Road) against a dark short story dealing with the reality of the road. It contains original artwork by the Francis, including a monument to Kerouac: a map showing the roads that spell out Kerouac’s name. This book has been included in the Yale University special collections.
