    Cover; Contents; List of Illustrations; Notes on Contributors; Introduction; Part I Letters and Transnationalism; 1 "A continual and almost exclusive correspondence": Philip Mazzei's Transatlantic Citizenship; 2 Letters on the Use of Letters in Narratives; 3 Anticipating Colonialism: U.S. Letters on Puerto Rico and Cuba, 1831-1835; Part II Letters and Authorship; 4 The Authentic Fictional Letters of Charles Brockden Brown; 5 Keys to "the labyrinth of my own being": Margaret Fuller's Epistolary Invention of the Self

    Rejecting the common categorization of letters as primarily private documents, this collection demonstrates the genre's persistent public engagements with changing cultural dynamics of the revolutionary, early republican, and antebellum eras. Transatlantic studies, authorship, reform movements, and the politics and practices of editing letters are treated in this exemplary collection that offers scholars a template of new approaches for exploring an understudied yet critically important genre
