Welcome to the Charles Brockden Brown Society Website

Charles Brockden Brown (1771-1810) has earned a general reputation as the early republic's most ambitious and accomplished literary figure.  He wrote prolifically in many genres, founded and edited three major magazines, published widely read political pamphlets, and intervened in many debates about the culture and politics of the new nation.

 

The Charles Brockden Brown Society was founded in 2000 as an international scholarly organization to stimulate interest in the life, the times, and the writings of Charles Brockden Brown and to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and information among Brown scholars and other interested persons.
