Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Hogg was a superb letterwriter, 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 Hoggs 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 there are also letters to shepherds, farmers, aristocrats, musicians, young ladies, and bluestockings. Hogg first appears in this volume in 1800 as a young shepherd with literary ambitions, and becomes the famous author of The Queens Wake (1813) and a key supporter of the early Blackwoods Edinburgh Magazine (1817). Among the final letters it contains are some tender if idiosyncratic loveletters to the Dumfriesshire girl he married in 1820 at the mature age of fortynine. Hoggs entertaining and informative letters are supplemented by detailed annotation and a full editorial apparatus, including biographical notes on his chief correspondents and a concise overview of this phase of his life.This edition of Hoggs Letters has its roots in the late 1970s and 1980s, when the four founder members of the James Hogg Society (Gillian Hughes, Douglas Mack, Robin MacLachlan, and Elaine Petrie) began work on tracing and transcribing Hoggs surviving letters. The major tasks of completing this work and preparing a fullscale edition of Hoggs Letters were subsequently passed to Gillian Hughes, who is now bringing this important research project to fruition.Key Features:* The first ever edition of Hoggs letters to be published* Includes many letters never previously published* Features Hoggs correspondence with figures such as Sir Walter Scott, Lord Byron and
