The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9781533330147 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Set in early eighteenth-century Scotland, the novel recounts the corruption of a boy of strict Calvinist parentage by a mysterious stranger under whose influence he commits a series of murders. The stranger assures the boy that no sin can affect the salvation of an elect person. The reader, while recognizing the stranger as Satan, is prevented by the subtlety of the novel's structure from finally deciding whether, for all his vividness and wit, he is more than a figment of the boy's imagination.

The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9780748663156 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A TLS International Book of the Year(TLS, Dec 7, 2001)This now-famous book was given a hostile reception when it first appeared in 1824. It was not reprinted until the late 1830s, when a heavily bowdlerised version was included in a posthumous edition of Hogg's collected Tales and Sketches published by Blackie & Son of Glasgow. Thereafter Confessions of a Justified Sinner attracted little interest until the 1890s, when the unbowdlerised text was printed for the first time since the 1820s. However, the current high reputation of Hogg's novel did not fully begin to establish itself until 1947,...

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...

The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9780199217953 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. One of the supreme masterpieces of Romantic fiction and Scottish literature, The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner is a terrifying tale of murder and amorality, and of one man's descent into madness and despair. James Hogg's sardonic novel follows a young man who, falling under the spell of a mysterious stranger who bears an uncanny likeness to himself, embarks on a career as a serial murderer. The memoirs are presented by a narrator whose attempts to explain the story only succeed in intensifying its more baffling and bizarre aspects. Is the young man the victim...

Highland Journeys
ISBN: 9780748624867 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hogg left a written record of three of his many journeys to the Highlands, those of 1802, 1803 and 1804, and in Highland Journeys he offers a thoughtful and deeply-felt response to the Highland Clearances. He gives vivid pictures of his experiences, including a narrow escape from a Navy press-gang, and a Sacrament day with one minister preaching in English and another in Gaelic. Hogg also explains aspects of Gaelic culture such as the waulking songs, and he describes the trade in kelp, lucrative to the landowners but back-breaking and ill-paid for the workers. Highland Journeys makes a...

Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
ISBN: 9781604594799 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 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.

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...
