Scope and Contents

"In bringing to light the careers and works of the Republic's first men of hearts, Elliott reveals that the dissatisfaction of American writers with their society is not an exclusively modern phenomenon. On the contrary, Revolutionary Writers demonstrates that this disillusionment has been a consistent function of the intelligentsia from the moment our rebluic was formed, and has changed little since the 1780s"--Dust jacket
