Critics agree, however, that the power of this novel lies not so much in its portrait of " right virtue, " which was Brown's primary aim, as in its realistic descriptions of the yellow fever epidemic and the ensuing panic that swept Philadelphia in the summer of 1793. The ambiguities of Arthur Mervyn's character and the precarious nature of the revolutionary 1790s make this novel a particularly apt subject for lively discussion and future scholarship and make this revised edition an excellent classroom text. 517 3 $aArthur Mervyn 517 3 $aMemoirs of the year 1793 606 $aMurderers$vFiction 606 $aYellow fever$vFiction 606 $aYoung men$vFiction 607 $aPhiladelphia (Pa.)$vFiction 615 0$aMurderers 615 0$aYellow fever 615 0$aYoung men 676 $a813/.2 700 $aBrown$b Charles Brockden$f1771-1810.$0196359 701 $aKrause$b Sydney J$g(Sydney Joseph)$01205539 701 $aReid$b S.
