Winter Evening Tales (1820; second edition 1821) was James Hoggs most successful work of prose fiction in his lifetime. Exhibiting the most complex genesis of any of Hoggs works, it is the outstanding example of a national genre pioneered by him the miscellaneous collection of popular and traditional narratives. Hoggs experimental medley of novellas, tales, poems and sketches posed a lively alternative to the dominant form of the historical novel established by Walter Scott. The collection includes terse masterpieces of mystery and the uncanny, virtuoso improvisations on folktale themes, and the highlights of the edition two brilliant autobiographical novellas, The Renowned Adventures of Basil Lee and Love Adventures of Mr George Cochrane.Reprinted in incomplete and unreliable texts in Victorian editions of Hoggs works, Winter Evening Tales fell into almost total obscurity after the authors death. The Stirling/ South Carolina Edition of the Collected Works of James Hogg is delighted to republish this key work in Hoggs career in its entirety for the first time since the early nineteenth century.
