Scott-land

Stuart Kelly's biography of Sir Walter Scott defies classification in terms of genre. Rather than a literary biography, or critical study, it is a personal examination of the sometimes overwhelming affect Scott has had on Scottish identity at large, and on how his legacy affects the very act of writing in Scotland.

Biografia lui Stuart Kelly despre Sir Walter Scott sfideaza clasificarea in ceea ce priveste genul. Mai degraba decat o biografie literara sau un studiu critic, este o examinare personala a efectului uneori coplesitor pe care Scott l-a avut asupra identitatii scotiane in general si asupra modului in care mostenirea sa afecteaza chiar actul de a scrie in Scotia.
