Brown, Charles Brockden http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-05000.xml I WAS resident in this city during the year 1793. Many motives contributed to detain me, though departure was easy and commodious, and my friends were generally solicitous for me to go. It is not my purpose to enumerate these motives, or to dwell on my present concerns and trans- actions, but merely to compose a narrative of some incidents with which my situation made me acquainted. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-05000.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT Edgar Huntly: A Fragment.

Brown, Charles Brockden http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-06191.xml YES, my friend, I admit the justice of your claim. There is but one mode of appeasing your wonder at my present condition, and that is the relation of the events of my life. This will amply justify my choice of an abode in these mountainous and unvisited recesses, and explain why I thus anxiously shut out from my retreat the foot- steps and society of men. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-06191.xml Mon, 01 Jun 1970 12:00:00 GMT Memoirs of Stephen Calvert.

Brown, Charles Brockden http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-01000.xml STEPHEN DUDLEY was a native of New- York. He was educated to the profession of a painter. His father's trade was that or an apo- thecary. But this son, manifesting an attachment to the pencil, he was resolved that it should be gratified. For this end Stephen was sent at an early age to Europe, and not only enjoyed the in- structions of Fuzeli and Bartolozzi, but spent a considerable period in Italy, in studying the Au- gustan and Medicean monuments. It was intend- ed that he should practise his art in his native city, but the young man, though reconciled to this scheme by deference to paternal authority, and by a sense of it... http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-01000.xml Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 GMT Portrait of An Emigrant. Extracted from a Letter. Brown, Charles Brockden http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-06161.xml I CALLED, as you desired, on Mrs. K——. We had consi- derable conversation. Knowing, as you do, my character and her's, you may be somewhat inquisitive as to the subject of our conversa- tion. You may readily suppose that my inquiries were limited to domestic and every-day incidents. The state of her own family, and her servants and children being dis- cussed, I proceeded to inquire into the condition of her neighbours. It is not in large cities as it is in villages. Those whose education does not enable and accustom them to look abroad, to investigate the character and actions of beings of a distant age and country, are gene- rally attentive to what is passing under their own eye. Mrs. K— never reads, not even a newspaper. She is unacquainted with what hap- pened before she was born. She is equally a stranger to the events that are passing in distant nations, and to those which ingross the atten- tion and shake the passions of the statesmen and politicians of her own country; but her mind, ne- vertheless, is ... http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-06161.xml Mon, 01 Jun 1970 12:00:00 GMT The Punishment of Ridicule: A Fragment. Brown, Charles Brockden http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-07257.xml THIS evening I called, on my way home, at Canning's. I found him standing within the door of his shop, and laughing with the utmost glee. I looked, at first, for the object of his good-humour, but found that his attention was occu- pied merely with mirthful recol- lections. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-07257.xml Wed, 01 Jul 1970 12:00:00 GMT Thessalonica: A Roman Story. Brown, Charles Brockden http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-05099.xml THESSALONICA, in conse- quence of its commercial si- tuation, was populous and rich. Its fortifications and numerous garri- son had preserved it from injury during the late commotions,* and the number of inhabitants was great- ly increased, at the expense of the defenceless districts and cities. Its place, with relation to Dalmatia, the Peloponnesus, and the Danube, was nearly centrical. Its security had been uninterrupted for ages, and no city in the empire of Theodosius exhibited so many monuments of its ancient prosperity. It had been, for many years, the residence of the prince, and had thence become the object of a kind of filial affection. He had laboured to render it im- pregnable, by erecting bulwarks, and guarding it with the bravest of his troops; he had endowed the ci- tizens with new revenues and privi- leges, had enhanced the frequency of their shows, and the magnificence of their halls and avenues, and made it the seat of government of Illyria and Greece. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1799-05099.xml Fri, 01 May 1970 12:00:00 GMT
