- Abstract:
- A distinctive style of "Scottish Gothic’"emerged, after 1815, in fiction by Walter Scott, James Hogg, and fellow members of the Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine circle. This chapter introduces this corpus of Scottish Gothic literature, specifies some ways in which the uncanny entailments of Scottish Gothic relate to religious discourse (very much including the self-conscious secularism incipient in the era), and situates Scottish Gothic literature within the international currents that conditioned its expressions of nationalism.
