    38,00 €

    As well as examining much-loved authors of the long nineteenth century such as Stevenson, Barrie, and MacDonald, these twenty essays explore the neglected role of women writers in shaping the inheritance of Scottish children's literature, the significant contribution of Gaelic writers, and the influence of folklore and tradition.

    George MacDonald is the acknowledged forefather of later fantasy writers such as C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien.

  • - Relationships and Reconfigurations
     
    32,00 €

    This collection of fourteen essays illustrates the strongly international and modernist dimension of Scotland's interwar revival, and illuminates the relationships between Scottish and non-Scottish writers and contexts. It also includes two chapters on the contribution made to this revival by Scottish visual art and music.

  • - Resituating J. M. Barrie
     
    32,00 €

    As well as being the author of Peter Pan, J. M. Barrie was a hugely successful novelist and playwright. Gateway to the Modern is a collection of essays examining the extraordinary range of his literary achievement. What emerges is a significant writer, fully immersed in the literary and intellectual culture of his day.

  • - Cunninghame Graham and His Contemporaries
     
    32,00 €

    The European age of empires launched a process of capitalist globalisation that continues to the present day. It is also inextricably linked with the quest for emancipation, political independence, and economic equality. These essays explore these ideas in the works of R.B. Cunninghame Graham (1852-1936) and other Scottish writers of the period.
