The Ohio State University 1970 Approved by Adviser Department of English ACKNOWLEDGMENTS X wish to thank first those to whom I am indebted in Scotland. Had it not been for the assistance and co-operation of Mr. Antony S. Chambers, chairman of W. & R. Chambers Ltd, this study would never have become a reality. Not only did he initially give an unknown American permission to study the firm's archives, but he has subsequently provided whatever I needed to facilitate my research. Gracious and generous, he is a worthy descendent of the first Robert Chambers. All associated with the Chambers firm— directors and warehousemen alike— played an important part in my research, from answering technical queries to helping unearth records almost forgotten. Equally helpful in their own way were the librarians of the University of Edinburgh Library and the National Library of Scotland. Finally, the people of Edinburgh made a signif­ icant, albeit indirect, contribution. From them I learned something of what it means to a Scot to be a Scot. In this country I owe my greatest debt to my adviser, Professor Richard D.

  • The Life and Work of William Bell Scott, 1811 — 1890
    THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM BELL SCOTT, 1811 — 1890 A Thesis presented to the University of Durham for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Vera Walker, No quotation from it should be published without his prior written consent and information derived February, 1951. from it should be acknowledged. PREFACE In terms of outward circumstance Scott's life was uneventful, and in the absence of any major crises it seemed best to adopt the natural divisions made by his movements from place to place. This gives five sections, each surprisingly self-contained, for Scott had the gift of living happily enough in his immediate environment and did not, on the whole, try to keep up friends and associations once he had moved from the place where he made them. The exception to this is Newcastle: while Soott lived in the North he kept up close ties with London, so that it seemed natural enough for him to return there on his retirement. Indeed one comes to regard)him as belonging to London in a way that he 'never belonged to his birthplace, Edinburgh. I have opened with an account of Scott's childhood and youth in Edinburgh. The next section is concerned with the period of exploration and development when he first came to London. After that comes a group of four chapters concerned with his work and residence in Newcastle. This is the central period. Scott was working hard in the cause of art- education and at the same time his own talents were maturing and bearing fruit.
