This article presents information on the works of author Matthew Josephson. Author Josephson's attention is focused particularly upon the writers of the second half of the American nineteenth century, for it was then that blighted careers were most frequent and appalling. The early morning of New England letters had passed, thrust aside by the triumphant march of industrialism, land speculation, and expansion, but undone, also, according to Josephson, by its own limitations, its failure to provide a philosophy and a relevant program for the new age.
