Peter Markoe 1752-1792: A Philadelphia Writer is a book written by Mary Chrysostom Diebels that explores the life and work of Peter Markoe, a prominent writer from Philadelphia during the late 18th century. The book delves into Markoe's background and upbringing, his education and literary influences, and his contributions to the literary scene in Philadelphia. Diebels provides a comprehensive analysis of Markoe's writings, including his poetry, essays, and political commentary, and explores the themes and ideas that shaped his work. The book also examines Markoe's relationships with other writers and intellectuals of the time, such as Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Paine, and his involvement in the political and social issues of his day. Through her research and analysis, Diebels paints a vivid picture of Peter Markoe as a complex and multifaceted figure, whose contributions to the literary and intellectual culture of Philadelphia have often been overlooked. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American literature and the intellectual landscape of the late 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
