Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Survey of Scottish Literature: In the Nineteenth Century (With Some Reference to the Eighteenth) At the beginning of the nineteenth century, owing to various causes, the Scottish capital might perhaps be termed the focus of literature in the British isles. The isolation of the Anglican Church in Europe, its antagonism on the one hand to Roman Catholicism, and, on the other hand, to non-episcopal reformed churches, had a chilling effect on literature. With all his greatness, Samuel Johnson was singularly contracted in his principles of judgment, and prejudiced in his outlook. Moreover, the English universities were so situated as to be out of the main current of the nation, being at a distance from the capital, and located in suburban towns. The very fact that politics in English life exercised so complete a sway was deadening to literature, for excessive devotion to politics tends immediately to localism and provincialism. But in the northern capital, which, as the home of a separate national church assembly and organization and of a separate national law system, had never ceased to continue the high literary traditions of the Scotland of the Stuarts, politics had ceased to be a main issue. The statesman, Viscount Melville, whose statue on a high pillar decorates one of the most elegant squares in the capital, and who gives his name to other important streets, was all powerful, and carried in his pocket the disposal of all political preferment. The thoughts of Scotchmen at this period did not run on politics in any local sense. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
