Perihal pengarang
Charles Brockden Brown (1771–1810) stands as one of the earliest American novelists, often recognized as a considerably influential figure in the development of the genre within the United States. Born into a Quaker family in Philadelphia, Brown pursued a literary career, producing works that precociously reflected the tensions of the post-revolutionary era. He is particularly noted for his exploration of the psychological landscape of his characters and has been acknowledged for his contributions to the genres of Gothic literature and historical fiction in America. 'Ormond, or the Secret Witness' (1799), one of Brown's remarkable novels, presents a nuanced portrayal of the challenges of early American life, exploring themes such as the clash between established norms and individual freedom. In this novel, as with others, Brown's narrative technique exhibits an early form of American realism mingled with elements of sensibility and gothic terror. His literary style often delved into the inner workings of the human mind and was marked by a keen interest in the social and political upheavals of his time. Brown's other significant works include 'Wieland; or The Transformation' (1798), which like 'Ormond,' solidifies his place not only as a pioneer in American literature but also as a chronicler of the American consciousness in an era of transition and uncertainty.
