1 Introduction
This bibliography is a comprehensive effort, collectively undertaken by a team of scholars, to provide a listing of the writings of Charles Brockden Brown (1771-1810). It lists the initial pub- lications or manuscripts of all Brown’s known writings, and revises and updates earlier attempts at bibliographies, notably those of Charles E. Bennett (1974, 1976) and Alfred Weber (1961, 1987, 1992, 2003). The bibliography’s goal is to provide a listing of Brown’s writings that will be as complete as possible, within the limits imposed by the question of attributing anonymous periodical texts. It serves as the basis for the ongoing Charles Brockden Brown Electronic Archive and Scholarly Edition, and as a general bibliography to be updated and revised in re- sponse to new scholarship. The bibliography’s initial version was the “Preliminary and Chronological Bibliography of… Uncollected Writings” first developed in 2000 for the early stages of the Scholarly Edition by Al- fred Weber and Wolfgang Schäfer, and subsequently revised and emended by Fritz Fleischmann (2001-03). We modify Weber-Schäfer-Fleischmann (WSF) in several ways, most fundamentally by aiming to include all of Brown’s known writings, from his 1783 manuscript notes on Hume to the posthumous publication of his essay series “The Scribbler” in 1822. WSF listed only so-c- alled “uncollected” writings, understood as periodical pieces, letters, and certain other publica- tions and manuscripts that had not been previously edited or republished in modern form in the Kent State Bicentennial edition of the novels and related writings (1977-87), the Allen-Dunlap biographical miscellany (1811-1815) or other twentieth-century sources, e.g. the Warfel “Rhaps- odist” collection (1943) or the Clark biography (1952). In the absence of any attempt at a comprehensive bibliography after Bennett (1974), and in the absence of any widely available comprehensive bibliography of any sort, the Scholarly Edi- tion project generated the need for and the collective desire to develop a bibliography that provides: a) a reliable and widely accessible listing of the entirety of Brown’s writings; and b) a scholarly bibliography that can be maintained and updated to reflect new findings and evolving scholarly consensus on the attribution of anonymous publications.
Numbering System and Organization: The bibliography uses two types of 10-character item numbers (accession numbers) which together form one unified system. For publications (about 900 items), the numbering system first proposed by Weber is re- tained here: item numbers indicate year of publication, followed by a hyphen and five digits in- dicating month + first page of text. Thus the item number for “The Rhapsodist, no. I” is 1789- 08464: the text appeared in 1789, in August (08), beginning on page 464. In rare cases identical numbers occur for different texts, for example in the case of the six “Communications” from Oc- tober, 1808. These items are distinguished by adding letters to the identical item numbers (e.g. 1808-10003a, 1808-10003b, etc.). For manuscripts ( 225 items), the bibliography refers to three subcategories: Letters (cat- egory code ML, 183 items), Poems (category code MP, 31 items), and Miscellaneous prose texts (category code MM, 11 items). These are numbered by year of publication, followed by a hy- phen, a category code and 3 digits indicating the item’s place in a consecutively numbered cat- egory list. Thus the item number for the first letter is 1787-ML001; for the first poem 1786- MP001; for the first miscellaneous prose item 1783-MM001.
2 Attribution: Brown’s extensive anonymous periodical publications and editorial work on three magazines filled with his own writing make it impossible to pretend to definitive attribution for many items; thus a comprehensive Brown bibliography necessarily remains open to change. As Sydney Krause observed in 1966 (29), there will never be a last word in Brown bibliography on this level, and Brown presents certain challenges in this respect. Nevertheless, the cumulative knowledge of the scholarly tradition has clarified and continues to clarify the status of a great number of items, such that inclusion in this bibliography signifies that an item is indisputably by Brown, or that previous scholarship and the Scholarly Edition editors ascribe it to Brown with a high degree of confidence. To indicate a distinction between items in these two categories, a letter “A” (indisputable) or “B” (high degree of confidence) marks each publication. In the project’s TEI electronic version of the bibliography, “A” and “B” correspond to “high” and “medium.” Brown’s periodical writ- ing also includes a range of hybrid texts in which Brown excerpts, summarizes, and otherwise creatively edits and shapes other works while adding his own implicit or explicit commentary and contextual framing within each particular magazine issue. However, given the very large num- ber of A-B texts and new levels of availability of Brown’s magazines in the digital age (large numbers of readers can now explore the variety of texts in Brown’s magazines for themselves), the Scholarly Edition will select only A-B texts for the bibliography and its seven-volume print edition. Subsequent digital versions of the Scholarly Edition will be able to include hybrid and other texts that may help the reader explore the full range of Brown’s editorial work.
Additions, Deletions, and other Changes: Additions, deletions, and substantial changes to the initial WSF bibliography are tracked by the editors. Deletions from the initial version of bibliography, and new determinations of author- ship for items not by Brown are moved to section III (“Items Removed”), with brief rationales. Because some of these deleted texts have received scholarly commentary as Brown’s work or have been mistakenly listed in previous bibliographies as Brown’s work; and because their identi- fication may be useful in other ways (e.g., such items provide information about Brown’s patterns of editorial borrowing), we list deletions with relevant source information rather than simply eliminating the item. The advent of digital databases of eighteenth and nineteenth-century print materials has provided powerful new tools and opportunities for refining our understanding of Brown’s editori- al borrowings and for discovering which of Brown’s magazine texts are borrowed and edited from other previous publications. Checking texts attributed to Brown against these databases, as part of the ongoing editorial work for the Scholarly Edition, has allowed this bibliography to es- tablish a far more accurate account of the shape of Brown’s corpus, and of his editorial practices, than was possible in previous scholarly generations. In order to incorporate new information, the bibliography will be updated periodically throughout the duration of the Scholarly Edition project.
Editorial Contacts: The bibliography is a collective project that welcomes contributions and corrections. To contact us with relevant information, please email Philip Barnard ([email protected]) or Mark Kamrath ([email protected]).
3 Finally, note that while this bibliography lists republications and different versions of texts published under Brown’s supervision (however desultory) during his own lifetime or for the first time in the Allen-Dunlap biography or other periodicals in the years immediately following Brown’s death (e.g. serialized portions of the novels, as well as their first publication in book form), it does not extend to republications after Allen-Dunlap or in England. Items identified in this bibliography thus constitute the earliest versions and, for editorial purposes, in virtually all cases, the copy-texts of Brown’s writings.

[removed 4/2007, phb., 1792-06016 to 1792-12039. The attribution of prose pieces from The Lady’s Magazine was initially asserted as “speculation” in Stearns (1935). The at tribution was accepted by Bennett (1974, 71-81), who added more items to Stearns’ list, and Weber inherited the items from Bennett. Nowhere in this chain of attribution is evidence offered to justify the link to Brown, however, while numerous elements suggest the attribution is mistaken. The piety of the Essayist series, for example, is at odds with Brown’s emphatic secularism and anti-clericalism during the 1790s.]

It first appeared as “Trifles” No. X, “On the Profession of the Law” in the New-Jersey State Gazette of Jan. 23, 1793 (vol. I, no. 20, p. 1).]

1798-03130 “A Contrast.” Weekly Magazine I.5 (March 3, 1798), 130-133.
[removed 7/2007, BW: though thematically consistent with Brown's other 1798 writings, including Alcuin, these two pieces are almost certainly by Frances Paxton, a female asso- ciate of Brown's in Philadelphia. See Smith (1972), 450; Waterman (2007), 87.]
1798-03165 "Essay on the Profession of the Law." Weekly Magazine I.6 (March 10, 1798), 165- 167. Signed "W." [reprinted from 1793-04001] [removed 12/2010, phb: Brown’s letters to William Wood Wilkins of Dec. 31, 1792 and January 22, 1793, make it clear that this essay is by Wilkins. It first appeared as “Trifles” No. X, “On the Profession of the Law” in the New-Jersey State Gazette of Jan. 23, 1793 (vol. I, no. 20, p. 1).]
1799
1799-00000 Inkle and Yarico. A Poem. By Mr. C. Brown. London: Printed for the Author ..., 1799. [removed 4/2007, phb: Krause discussed this item in “Census” (1966), 52 note 28, and con- cluded that the attribution is highly doubtful. Frank Felsenstein, in English Trader, Indian Maid: Representing Gender, Race, and Slavery in the New World (Baltimore: Johns Hop- kins UP, 1999), 257, establishes that the poem is not by CBB.]
1799-08324 "[Extracts of two letters on Yellow Fever] from a Gentleman in in Philadelphia to his Friend in England, dated July [7, and 26,] 1799." Monthly Magazine I.5 (Aug. 1799), 324- 330. [removed 4/2007, BW: these letters are most plausibly what they claim to be, i.e., letters from someone in Philadelphia, and thus the attribution is unlikely. They may as easily have come from B. Rush to Samuel Miller.]
1799-08359 "Art. XVIII.[Review of] Sermons, by Samuel Stanhope Smith, D.D. President of the College of New Jersey 8vo. pp. 437. Newark. Halsey and Co. 1799." Monthly Magazine I.5 (Aug. 1799), 359-365. [removed 4/2007, BW: Brown’s secularism makes attribution unlikely. Samuel Miller was likely responsible for most of the magazine’s religious content.]
104 1799-08365 "Art. XIX. [Review of] Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, held at Philadelphia, for promoting useful Knowledge. Vol. iv. 4to. pp. 530. Philadelphia. Dobson. 1799."

[Continued in 1799-12442, 1800-01047, -02115. -03213, -, -04296, -06424.] [removed 4/2007, BW: no compelling stylistic or thematic-conceptual evidence of Brown’s authorship for this or the continued installments. Possibly written by several individuals.]

1800
1800-02133 "Art. XVI. [Review of] The Count of Burgundy: A Comedy of Kotzebue. In four Acts. Translated by Charles Smith. New-York. Printed for C. Smith and S. Stephens, by M.

Mesier. 12mo. pp. 84. 1800." Monthly Magazine II.2 (February 1800), 133-139. [removed 4/2007, BW: stylistic and thematic elements suggest the piece is likely by William Dunlap.]
1801
1801-05144b "To the Rev. John Blair Linn, A.M., Minister of the First Presbyterian Congregation of Philadelphia - on his Poem entitled 'THE POWERS OF GENIUS, as also on his PULPIT ELOQUENCE" [a poem]. Port-Folio I.18 (May 2, 1801), 144. Signed "G--- B---." [removed 6/2011, phb: the poem has never been regarded as Brown’s work; the religious emphasis is foreign to Brown, and so on. Its addition to the bibliography may have been an error in the first place.]
1803
October 1803
1803-10073 “British Population.” Literary Magazine I.1 (1803), 73-74. [removed 5/2009, phb; Reprinted from a British source which also appears in other magazines about this time. See for example “Population Act,” in the London Christian Ob- server volume 3 (“For the Year 1804”; apparently printed in late 1803), 110-111, which in- cludes the same language as Brown’s piece.
105 1803-10075 “Anecdotes of the Present Emperor of Russia, Alexander I.” Literary Magazine I.1 (1803), 75-77. [removed 5/2009; phb; Reprinted from London Monthly Magazine (April 1, 1803), 239- 240.]

1803-11141 “Story of Cecilia.” Literary Magazine I.2 (Nov. 1803), 141-144. [removed 5/2007; phb: no stylistic or thematic evidence for Brown’s authorship. Most not- ably, the tale’s masculinist moralizing on female character is at odds with Brown’s consist- ently Wollstonecraftian positions. Listed in the volume’s Table of Contents as “Story of Cecilia, from Literary Leisure,” although this source has not yet been located. Also reprinted in the Boston Monthly Anthology and Monthly Magazine, May 1804, 312 ff.]
1803-11144 "Essay on the Arts, Commonly Called Imitative." Literary Magazine I.2 (Nov. 1803), 144-150.

See Barnard (1987, 133- 35) and Abrams (1953, 87-88).]

[removed 6/2009, phb: this polemical denunciation of a review in the Boston Monthly An- thology is out of keeping with Brown’s style. Nor is it Brown’s practice to enter into direct polemics of this sort with other periodicals. This piece is a Letter to the Editor that rebuts and inveighs at great length against the Boston Anthology’s negative review in February 1806 (86-92) of Letters from Europe, dur- ing a Tour through Switzerland and Italy, in the Years 1801 and 1802, by a Native of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia: Barton, 1805). The Boston review itself is intemperate and in- dulges in ad hominem invective; thus the offended tone in this response suggests that the au- thor is Joseph Sansom, the “Native of Pennsylvania” who wrote the negatively reviewed book. Sansom’s book is excerpted in the next (May 1806) issue of the Literary Magazine, as “Schoellenen and Urseren Vale Described. From Sansom’s American Letters,” 333.]
