The Jacobite Relics of Scotland: Volume 1
ISBN: 9780748615926 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 584 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. James Hogg's Jacobite Relics - originally commissioned by the Highland Society of London in 1817 - is an important addition to The Collected Works of James Hogg. It created a canon for the Jacobite song which had an enormous influence on subsequent collections, and was of great importance in defining the relationship between the Scottish song tradition and its Romantic editors and collectors.From the first publication of the Relics in 1819 the majority of scholars have argued about how many of them were authored or at least substantially altered by Hogg. Professor Murray Pittock has conducted...

Winter Evening Tales
ISBN: 9780748620869 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 648 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Winter Evening Tales (1820; second edition 1821) was James Hogg's most successful work of prose fiction in his lifetime.

Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9781604594799 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. On the surface, this novel is a simple tale of a young man who encounters a shape-shifting devil, an early manifestation of a doppelganger, and the various misadventures that follow. This novel was perhaps the first post modern novel; it employs clustered narratives, self-reflexive point-of-view, unreliable narrators, and unsympathetic-protagonist. This is indeed a land mark novel.

After Scott's death in 1832 James Hogg wrote an affectionate but frank account of their long friendship.

Those with an interest in Romantic biography and autobiography will be particularly fascinated...

The Collected Letters of James Hogg, Volume 1, 1800-1819
ISBN: 9780748616718 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 490 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hogg was a superb letter-writer, and this is the initial volume of the first collected edition of his letters (to be completed in three volumes). Many of the letters have never been published before, or published only in part. They vividly reflect Hogg's varied social experience and shed new light on his own writings and those of his contemporaries. Among his famous correspondents were writers such as Scott, Byron, and Southey, antiquarians such as Robert Surtees, politicians such as Sir Robert Peel, and editors and publishers such as John Murray, William Blackwood, and Robert Chambers. But...

ISBN: 9781516852802 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This edition has been reviewed and lightly edited to simplify some aspects of the original novel's sentence structures to make the narrative more appealing to a modern reader, while retaining the greater part of the original writing. 'As I went my way, I beheld a young man of a mysterious appearance coming towards me. I tried to shun him, being bent on my own contemplations; but he cast himself in my way, so that I could not avoid him. But more than that I felt a sort of invisible power that drew me towards him. It felt like the force of an enchantment, which I could not resist. As we...

The Collected Letters of James Hogg, Volume 3, 1832-1835
ISBN: 9780748616756 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 450 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The third and final volume of the first collected edition of Hogg's letters reveals his versatility in old age. In 1832 he visits London for the first time and becomes the literary lion of the season. As communications improve in the early 1830s he explores the possibility of writing for American periodicals, and deals (mostly) gracefully with the various claims made on his time as a celebrity author. The loss of old friends is compensated for by a circle of young admirers and proteges, and Hogg turns an acutely observant eye on an age of cheap periodicals and of political reform.A full...
