Bibliography of Scottish Literature

Scottish Literature in the age of Scott

Introductory Reading

Again, the general literary and bibliographical works listed in General Further Reading (at the opening to the reading lists) are useful starting points, including Aitken, Daiches, Glen, Kinsley, Lindsay, Millar, Royle, Speirs, Walker, Watson and Wittig. For a recent comprehensive and critically helpful guide to the period see the collection of essays in the third volume of The History of Scottish Literature series edited by Douglas Gifford (General Editor Cairns Craig, Aberdeen: Aberdeen University Press, 1988). Other useful introductions to the issues of the period are raised by G.E. Davie in The Democratic Intellect (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1961); David Daiches in Literature and Gentility in Scotland (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1982), and David Craig in Scottish Literature and the Scottish People 1680-1830 (London: Chatto & Windus, 1961). Robert Crawford's Devolving English Literature (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1992; rev. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2001) challenges accepted views on the period, whileJohn McQueen's study of Enlightenment influence on historical fiction, The Rise of the Historical Novel: The Enlightenment and Scottish Literature (Edinburgh: Scottish Academic Press, 1989) gives a background to Scott, Hogg, Galt and Carlyle, as does Nineteenth-Century Scottish Fiction: A Critical Anthology (Manchester: New Carcanet Press, 1979), essays edited by Ian Campbell.

Language usage in the fiction is analysed by Emma Letley in From Galt to Douglas Brown - Nineteenth Century Fiction and Scots Language (Edinburgh: Scottish Academic Press, 1988), and John W. Oliver's essay entitled 'Scottish Poetry in the Earlier Nineteenth Century' in Kinsley (ed.), Scottish Poetry: a Critical Survey (London: Cassell, 1955), pp. 212-35, may be useful. Edwin Muir's Scott and Scotland (London: Routledge, 1936) raises stimulating, if controversial issues of language, identity, themes and issues. And recently the neglected achievement of women in the period has been addressed, in the essays of A History of Scottish Women's Writing edited by Gifford and McMillan (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1997), in An Anthology of Scottish Women Poets, edited by Catherine Kerrigan (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1991), and in McMillan's anthology The Scotswoman Abroad: Non-Fictional Writing 1700-1900 (Glasgow: Association for Scottish Literary Studies, 1999).

For historical and culturalbackground there are two outstanding accounts of the period, the first from the Tory and son-in-law of Walter Scott, John Gibson Lockhart in Peter's Letters To his Kinsfolk (Edinburgh, 1819: William Ruddick has a modern edition, Edinburgh: Scottish Academic Press, 1977), and the Whig lawyer and Judge (Lord) Henry Cockburn in Memorials of His Time (Edinburgh, 1856), with a modern edition by Karl Miller (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1974). Margaret Oliphant's two-volume Annals of a Publishing house: William Blackwood and His Sons (Edinburgh: Blackwood, 1897) is still the best account of Scotland's greatest publisher.A neglected, very thorough and perceptive study of the period is Laurence Saunders's Scottish Democracy 1825-1840: The Social and Intellectual Background (Edinburgh: Oliver & Boyd, 1950).

Widening the Range

The following references are by no means exhaustive but provide some critical information concerning those writers mentioned in relation to the main sections of this book. For considerations of space, editions and criticism are given together.

There are too many minor Scottish poets of the period to comprehensively list here; that said, important recent work is reassessing their achievement, outstandingly in William Donaldson's Popular Literature in Victorian Scotland (Aberdeen: Aberdeen University Press,1986), and in Tom Leonard's groundbreaking anthology of forgotten poetic voices of the later eighteenth and nineteenth century in Radical Renfrew (Edinburgh: Polygon, 1990). See also the essay by William Findlay, 'Reclaiming Local Literature: William Thom and Janet Hamilton' in volume 3 of The History of Scottish Literature: Nineteenth Century, edited by Douglas Gifford (Aberdeen: Aberdeen University Press, 1988), pp. 353-76, and Duncan Glen's The Poetry of the Scots: An Introduction and Bibliographical Guide to Poetry in Gaelic, Scots, Latin and English (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1999). The Scottish Poetry Collection for the Mitchell Library in Glasgow is probably the finest collection in the world in terms of coverage of the nineteenth century;
