Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Sir Walter Scott, Bart, Vol. 1 The popularity of The Mimtrelsy of the Scottish Border - of which the first edition appeared about a century ago, and the finally corrected edition, with additional notes by Lockhart, some thirty years later - was almost as immediate and general as that of its great precursor, Bishop Percy's Reliques ofancient Poetry, first published in 1765. Its influence in stimulating the industry of ballad collectors was also remarkable, though it can hardly be maintained that in this respect it surpassed the Reliques, if it be borne in mind that but for the Reliques, Scott might never have prepared the illinatrelay.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poetical Works, Vol. 1: Of Sir Walter Scott, Bart Scott himself did. Jeffrey led the way in his first criticism by describing the Goblin Page as an excrescence, and ever Since it has been customary to say that his grotesque pranks have no comprehensible bearing on the action. Scott him self, in accordance with his resolution never to reply to criticism, humorously acquiesced when told that his Goblin had no sufficient raison d'etre but his supernatural machinery is really very closely jointed into the movement of human affairs in his story. The Goblin's pranks in the kitchen are episodical, but the incidents on which the story turns are all brought about by his help. His prying into the mighty book Of Michael Scott 5 his secret return of the wounded and stunned Deloraine to the castle 5 his luring away of the heir of Buccleuch to fall into English hands; his substitution of Oranstoun for Deloraine in the combat, are all necessary links in the main chain of events. The discourse between the River Spirit and the Mountain Spirit 5 the Ladye's knowledge Of this through her witchcraft; her determination to bafiie Fate with the help of Michael Scott's mighty book 5 the irony with which this instrument is turned against her 5 her vengeance on the Goblin whose impish tricks have marred her plans, are all essential parts Of the tale as told, and must all be taken seriously if we are to read it in the spirit in which it was conceived. It was meant to be a tale Of wonder as well as a tale Of rugged characters and picturesque adventures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Sir Walter Scott, Bart, Vol. 5: Sir Tristrem IT is to be regretted that Sir Walter Scott has left no answer to an elaborate dissertation on his preface to Sir Tmistrem, which was appended to the first volume of the 8vo edition of Warton's History of English Poetry, published in 1824. It is probable. That this very valuable book, being put forth without the name of the Editor, or any distinct announcement of what his researches had added to the original narrative of Warton, had never attracted Sir Walter's notice.
