Desire for Perpetuation: Fairy Writing and Re-creation of National Identity in the Narratives of Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang Yuki Yoshino A Thesis Submitted to The University of Edinburgh for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Literature 2013 Abstract This thesis argues that ‘fairy writing’ in the nineteenth-century Scottish literature serves as a peculiar site which accommodates various, often ambiguous and subversive, responses to the processes of constructing new national identities occurring in, and outwith, post-union Scotland. It contends that a pathetic sense of loss, emptiness and absence, together with strong preoccupations with the land, and a desire to perpetuate the nation which has become state-less, commonly underpin the wide variety of fairy writings by Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang.

  • Andrew Lang - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Andrew Lang - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Andrew Lang(31 March 1844 - 20 July 1912) LAndrew Lang was a Scots poet, novelist, literary critic, and contributor to the field of anthropology. He is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales. The Andrew Lang lectures at the University of St Andrews are named after him. <b>Biography</b> Lang was born in Selkirk. He was the eldest of the eight children born to John Lang, the town clerk of Selkirk, and his wife Jane Plenderleath Sellar, who was the daughter of Patrick Sellar, factor to the first duke of Sutherland. On 17 April 1875 he married Leonora Blanche Alleyne, the youngest daughter of C. T. Alleyne of Clifton and Barbados. He was educated at Selkirk grammar school, Loretto, and at the Edinburgh Academy, St Andrews University and at Balliol College, Oxford, where he took a first class in the final classical schools in 1868, becoming a fellow and subsequently honorary fellow of Merton College. As a journalist, poet, critic and historian, he soon made a reputation as one of the most able and versatile writers of the day.

He was buried in the cathedral precincts at St Andrews. <b>Professions</b> <b>Folklore and anthropology</b> Lang is now chiefly known for his publications on folklore, mythology, and religion.

  • INTRODUCTION Andrew Birkin's Book J. M. Barrie and the Lost Boys
    Notes INTRODUCTION Andrew Birkin's book J. M. Barrie and the Lost Boys (Birkin, 1979) was dramatised as a three-part television serial for BBC television in October 1978. CHAPTER I: PETER PAN AND FREUD References to Freud, by volume number, year ofwriting (in parenthesis) and first publication of work and page number, are to The Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works 01 Sigmund Freud, 24 vols (London: Hogarth, 1953-74), and to the Pelican Freud where available. 2 'the first time he is founded in a Lye, it should rat her be wondered at as a monstrous Thing in him, than reproved as an ordinary Fault' (Locke, 1693, pp. 153-4). 3 There is no room here to discuss in detail Bettelheim's work on the fairy tale, but it should be noted that, while he interprets Little Red Riding Hood, for example, predominantly in terms ofthe girI's mastery ofOedipal conflict, he does stress throughout the book the partial nature of his reading and the multifarious and contradictory meanings which fairy tales carry in them­ selves, and which they may represent for different children at different moments of their psychic life. In fact, I see a tension between Bettelheim's stress on this complexity and his fundamental aesthetic - his belief in the artistic coherence ofthe fairy tale, the facility ofthe child's identification with its characters and meaning, and the assumption of its final and necessary resolution ofpsychic and sexual conflict. For the proximity ofthis concept of aesthetic form to realist forms of representation, see Chapter 2, pp.

  • Citation, Collaboration, and Appropriation in the Works of Andrew and Nora Lang
    Citation, Collaboration, and Appropriation in the Works of Andrew and Nora Lang by Andrea Lynne Day A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Andrea Lynne Day 2018 Citation, Collaboration, and Appropriation in the Works of Andrew and Nora Lang Andrea Lynne Day Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This dissertation argues that the representations and practices of authorship in the works of An- drew Lang (1844-1912) and Nora Lang (1851-1933) emblematize this literary couple’s struggles to define the nature of literary creativity and, by extension, to determine whose creative efforts are worthy of acknowledgment. Chapter One reveals the importance of adaptation to Andrew’s def-inition of creativity by considering the relationship between his first book, Ballads and Lyrics of Old France: With Other Poems (1872), and three texts that shaped his conception of authorship: Walter Scott’s Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border (1802-03), E.B. Tylor’s Primitive Culture (1871), and Walter Pater’s Studies in the History of the Renaissance (1873). Chapter Two focuses on the three-year period (1887-90) during which Andrew, now a well-established man of letters, deployed his own authority to defend his friend H. Rider Haggard against charges of plagiarism. I focus on three of his creative works that claim adaptation is a necessary precondition of origi-nality: He (1887), a parody of Haggard’s She (1887); “From Mr. Allan Quatermain to Sir Henry Curtis” (1890), an epistolary yarn wherein Haggard’s hero rescues the Stranger from Olive Schreiner’s The Story of An African Farm (1883); and The World’s Desire ii (1890), Lang and Haggard’s co-authored sequel to the Odyssey.

In dealing with Categories Two and Three, I have drawn heavily for source material on the literary period­ icals and the trade publications of the time. For the facts about Stevenson's business relations with American publishers I have consulted a large body of unpublished correspondence that tells the whole story. I have had free access to, and have permission to quote from, three sizeable collections of unpublished letters which shed considerable light on Stevenson's American business affairs.
