Black Hardback. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition Thus. 2004. cxiii, 470pp. B&W illustrations. This volume is edited by Douglas S. Mack and contains an Essay on the Illustrations by Meiko O'Halloran and a Glossary by Janette Currie. "The Queen's Wake is one of the landmarks of British Romantic poetry. I…t focuses on the return of Mary, Queen of Scots to Scotland in 1561 to take personal rule of her kingdom after her years in France. In the poem poets and bards hold a poetic competition (a 'wake') in Holyrood Palace to welcome the Queen home. In the descriptions of the songs and the people who sing them various Scottish poets of Hogg's own period can be recognised, giving the reader a sense of the condition of poetry in Hogg's Scotland. Another key concern of the poem is the state of Scotland in 1561 - a crucial period in Scottish history, coming a year after the legislation was passed that brought in the Scottish Reformation. The Queen's Wake looks back to the pre-1560 world of Catholic Scotland and explores the tensions between that old world and an emerging modernity. When The Queen's Wake was published in 1813 it proved an unexpected popular success, placing Hogg for a while alongside Byron and Scott as one of the most admired British poets of that time. Over the next six years Hogg was encouraged by major players in the Edinburgh book trade to make substantial revisions, to make the poem even more attractive and saleable. The fifth edition (1819) is an enhanced and carefully polished version from the now established and respected poet. It is markedly different from the edgy, powerful and unsettling first version of The Queen's Wake, which was the work of an impecunious and marginalised outsider. Thus the poem exists in significantly different authorial versions, each reflecting Hogg's circumstances at the time. In recent years a consensus has emerged that in cases of this kind the modern reader is best served by having access to editions of both versions.The Stirling/South Carolina Research Edition of The Queen's Wake therefore presents both the first and fifth edition of the poem." Book has gilt titles to spine. Page edges browning. The book looks like it has been dropped into a muddy puddle with soiling to the edges and water marks to the edges of the boards and some pages. A good working copy. PLEASE NOTE: Heavyish book so a little extra may be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.

He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland and is celebrated worldwide. William Motherwell (1797 - 1835) was a Scottish poet, antiquary and journalist born at Glasgow, the son of an ironmonger. James Hogg (1770 - 1835) was a Scottish poet, novelist and essayist who wrote in both Scots and English. As a young man he worked as a shepherd and farmhand, and was largely self-educated through reading. He was a friend of many of the great writers of his day, including Sir Walter Scott, of whom he later wrote an unauthorized biography. He became widely known as the "Ettrick Shepherd", a nickname under which some of his works were published.

The Stirling/South Carolina Research Edition of The Collected Works of James Hogg. "Both comical and horrific, The Three Pe…rils of Woman is essentially a combination of two stories on similar themes. One is set in the Highlands following the Battle of Culloden and the other in Hogg's Edinburgh. Daring in its subject matter, the novel touches on such delicate topics as prostitution and venereal disease.".

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good Plus. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good Plus. First Edition Thus. 1996, 1st thus. xxxv, 311pp. Book and unclipped dust jacket both in excellent condition with no inscriptions. "In this collection of short stories Hogg focuses on the Scottish civil war of 1644-45, in which the Marquis of Montrose le…d his royalist forces in a series of stunning victories against the odds before his final defeat at Philiphaugh. Each of Hogg's five tales centres on one of the five major battles of Montrose's brilliant but ultimately futile campaign. Each tale is utterly different from the others in genre and tone, but taken together they build up a composite picture of what it was like to experience the 'anarchy and confusion' of the time at first hand. The importance of Tales of the Wars of Montrose was long obscured by the fact that the publisher of the first edition seriously mangled Hogg's text, not least by including an unrelated sixth tale in order to bulk out the collection to the commercially-expected norm of three volumes. Gillian Hughes has restored Hogg's coherent five-tale collection, and by returning to Hogg's manuscripts in preparing her edition she has made possible the first appearance in print of an uncensored text of this lively and innovative collection.

Black Hardback. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition Thus. 2008. cii, 235pp. The Stirling/South Carolina Research Edition of The Collected Works of James Hogg. "Midsummer Night Dreams and Related Poems comprises ten of Hogg's poems which, in very different ways, explore the visionary and supernat…ural, and one writer's portrayal of them, echoing the subject and title of Shakespeare's famous play. Chief among these poems is The Pilgrims of the Sun, a visionary journey which seeks to demonstrate Hogg's command not only of his native Scottish tradition of poetry but also of English and even European traditions, including those of Milton and Pope, Dante and Byron. Its counterpart is the hellish visionary journey of the weirdly brilliant 'Connel of Dee'. In another poem Hogg reflects upon the carnage of 'The Field of Waterloo'. He recounts the departure of the fairies from Scotland in 'The Gyre Caryl', and challenges the Enlightenment dismissal of the supernatural in 'Superstition'. From his dramatic sketch 'The Haunted Glen' to his commemoration of the famous comet of 1811, and from the plaintive balladry of 'The Mermaid' to the rumbustious comic delusions of 'The Powris of Moseke', Hogg substantiates in full his vaunted claim to be 'King o' the mountain and fairy school' of poetry. This is the first complete edition of Midsummer Night Dreams and Related Poems since the appearance of Hogg's Poetical Works of 1822. It provides a carefully corrected and fully annotated text of all ten poems with Hogg's own notes to The Pilgrims of the Sun. It has a full editorial apparatus, and a supplementary essay on Hogg and Otherworld Journeys from Dante to Byron." Book and unclipped dust jacket both in excellent condition with no inscriptions.
