Woodstock Or the Cavalier Part II by Sir Walter Scott
Woodstock or the Cavalier Part II by Sir Walter Scott Woodstock or the Cavalier Part II by Sir Walter Scott CHAPTER THE NINETEENTH. Being skilless in these parts, which, to a stranger, Unguided and unfriended, often prove Rough and inhospitable. TWELFTH NIGHT. There was a little attempt at preparation, now that the dinner hour was arrived, which showed that, in the opinion of his few but faithful domestics, the good knight had returned in triumph to his home. The great tankard, exhibiting in bas-relief the figure of Michael subduing the Arch- enemy, was placed on the table, and Joceline and Phoebe dutifully attended; the one behind the chair of Sir Henry, the other to wait upon her young mistress, and both to make out, by formal and regular observance, the want of a more numerous train. "A health to King Charles!" said the old knight, handing the massive tankard to his daughter; "drink it, my love, though it be rebel ale which they have left us. I will pledge thee; for the toast will excuse the liquor, had Noll himself brewed it." The young lady touched the goblet with her lip, and returned it to her father, who took a copious draught. "I will not say blessing on their hearts," said he; "though I must own they drank good ale." "No wonder, sir; they come lightly by the malt, and need not spare it," said Joceline. "Say'st thou?" said the knight; "thou shalt finish the tankard thyself for that very jest's sake." Nor was his follower slow in doing reason to the royal pledge.

The Great Uncredited: Sir Walter Scott and Cinema Page 1 of 14 • Current Issue • Back Issues • Occasional Papers • Publications • Webteque • Events • About Us • Archives The Great Uncredited: Sir Walter Scott and Cinema Tim Dolin Scott’s reputation in the film age When Sir Walter Scott died in 1832 he was the most famous novelist the world had ever known. Remarkably, Scott took up fiction only in middle age, after abandoning narrative poetry when he found himself eclipsed by Byron’s mega-celebrity and greater poetic originality and vigour. Over a twenty-year long career as a novelist he achieved phenomenal popularity and esteem, producing some twenty-five novels and collections of tales.[1] His first novel, Waverley, appeared anonymously in 1814, when he was 42 years old, and sold out six editions in its first year.[2] Having established what was then an entirely new literary form, a hybrid of history and fiction, he wrote eight further novels set in Scotland and for the most part in the eighteenth century, and transformed attitudes to Scottish culture and history in the process.[3] With the publication of Ivanhoe in 1820, where he was still identified on the title page only as “By the Author of http://www.screeningthepast.com/2012/08/the-great-uncredited-sir-walter-scott-and-ci... 12/03/2013 The Great Uncredited: Sir Walter Scott and Cinema Page 2 of 14 Waverley &c.,” Scott began to adapt his historical fiction to other places and other periods, shifting with apparent ease from medieval England to the France of Louis XI to the Palestine of the Crusades.

Scott and the Biographers
Scott and the Biographers ROBERT SPEAIGHT HE life of Sir Walter Scott is an invitation to biography. The story is essentially a success story, although it began T with disappointment in love and very nearly ended in bankruptcy. The mixture of romance and realism that Scott's latest biographer1 discovers in his novels was the determining constituent of his character. Abbotsford may stand as its epitome. Scott made the money to build it, and his fervent historical imagination decreed the way it should be built. When his fortunes crashed and his powers began to fail, it still stood as it stands today. The interesting question is whether his work stands with it. Our knowledge of Scott, and our answer to the question, will now depend upon two major biographies. Each is a classic in its kind. For many of us Lockhart's life of his father-in-law has a place only a notch or two below Boswell. Lockhart was a con• troversial character, and his accuracy cannot always be relied upon. 'To be one of the best and one of the kindest as well as one of the cleverest men I know,' Scott wrote to his daughter, 'John's taste and talent for making enemies and powerful enemies is something extraordinary.' His gifts were those of the satirist, and the satirist — unlike the story-teller — takes unpopularity in his stride. Yet the note of Lockhart's life of Scott is a pietas that never cloys, and a judgement that rarely loses it balance. He is writing from a close knowledge of his subject, and of events still recent in memory.

Walter Scott and Short Fiction
PERFORMING ROBERT BURNS ‘This book is a reminder that experiencing Burns has always been as much a voice or an event as pages in a book. In our time, as in his own, Burns is encountered as recitation, on stage and screen, in speeches, preeminently as song, and in the drama and debates surrounding new discoveries and new editions. Contributors to this imaginative new interdisciplinary collection bridge the divide between performers and scholars, with readable but authoritative short essays that will spark interest in all Burnsians and open up new directions for Burns research.’ Patrick Scott, University of South Carolina Examines representations of Robert Burns and his work in a wide range of performance modes This book opens up fresh aspects of performance and performativity and their impact on our perception of Robert Burns and his work. Bringing together leading experts on music, song, drama, public ceremonial and literature, it studies Burns as a performed and performative construct. It explores ways in which he is encountered as a living author, setting the popularity of his poetry and songs in the context of his representation in popular and Gerard Carruthers Edited by Ian Brown culture.

Scott says: 'We are bound to tell the tale as we have received it; and, ... this could not be called a Scottish story unless it manifested a tinge of Scottish superstition.' I So this being a Scottish occasion, let me begin with a tinge of Scottish superstition. In February last year, I was sitting on a train from Paris to Luxembourg. I had read Guy Mannering over the Christmas holidays and had just finished reading The Antiquary on the train. As I sat looking out of the window at the soggy valley of the Marne, it occurred to me to wonder what had happened to the WaIter Scott Club and whether it was still going strong. I arrived back in Luxembourg and there, behind the door was a letter from Duncan McGregor inviting me to be your President and, consequently, to speak at tonight's dinner. Naturally, Scottish superstition made it impossible for me to refuse, and, for your part, you must believe, for good or ill, that it was 'meant'. But you have set me an impossible task. Everything that can be said about Scott has already been said many times before, and even that has been said several times before by my predecessors.

JAMES ANDERSON Sir Walter Scott as Historical Novelist Part V The Fortunes of Nigel (1822) may be described as a semi-Scotch novel, since the best part of it is supplied by the Scotch humourists King James, Sir Mungo Malagrowther, and Richie Moniplies, the rest being English Jacobean. (Sir Mungo Murray was, Scott tells us, whipping-boy to King Charles I, as the fictitious Sir Mungo was to King James).l Many of the details in Scott's picture of King James are to be found in the sources; for example, the King's leCture to his courtiers at Whitehall 2 on the superiority of the Scottish pronunciation of Latin is based on a speech he made at Stirling in 1617, reported in Thomas Crawfurd's History of the University of Edinburgh.3 Scott himself gives most of the rest in the notes.

An End of an Old Song? the Paratexts of the Waverley Novels and Reference to Traditional Song
An End of an Old Song? The Paratexts of the Waverley Novels and Reference to Traditional Song C. M. Jackson-Houlston Oxford Brookes University Which British author has the most index entries in Gérard Genette’s definitive study Paratexts?1 Walter Scott, with forty four, one fewer than Stendhal and way ahead of Sterne’s twelve. The reason is not far to seek. As well as importing chapter mottoes from the Gothic novel into a supposedly more realist form (Genette, pp. 146-47), Scott was an avid preface writer and annotator, and, in his fiction, both prefaces and notes come in two kinds, those avowedly by ‘the Author of Waverley’ and those by a variety of (mostly) heterodiegetic fictional antiquarians, framing a variety of narratives, sometimes at several extra removes. After the financial crisis of 1826 that prompted the formal declaration of his authorship in 1827, Scott added layers of both prefatory and note material for the Magnum Opus edition of 1829-33. He saw this as restoring to him a more open ‘sort of parental control’ which enabled him to correct and improve his work.2 So substantial are the differences presented to the reader that the Magnum prefaces and notes are to form the last two volumes of the new Edinburgh edition of the Waverley Novels, rather than appearing with the first- edition-based texts now being newly restored for a modern audience. This article will address some of the implications of Scott’s practice through a focus on one small part of his paratextual riches, his use of traditional songs as or within other paratexts.3 Their verse format already declares their difference in origin and authority status from the prose that forms their matrix.
