Unknown Author

4.9/5 (11012 ratings)

Description:John Galt's writings have been the subject of increasing interest in the past decade. The main aim of this collection of essays, whose publication coincides with and marks the bi-centenary of Gait's birth in Irvine in 1779, is to demonstrate Gait's position as a writer of importance. He has long been obscured by the dominant shadow of his contemporary Sir Walter Scott, with whom in many areas he stands favourable comparison. One of the strongest commendations of Gait is that his "novels" (he disliked the term being applied to many of his works) and their appeal cut across traditional narrow specialisms and he is as likely to interest the historian as the student of literature. Ostensibly his work is based on the parochial concerns of Ayrshire and the West of Scotland but these essays show that he is a highly perceptive and skilled writer.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
