Summary

Literary Movements explores the evolution of human thought through literature, focusing on Romanticism, Realism, and Modernism. These movements reflect significant cultural shifts and artistic expression, offering insights into how societies perceived themselves and the world.

 
Romanticism, for example, arose as a reaction against the Enlightenment, emphasizing emotion and individualism. Similarly, Realism sought to depict life authentically, often highlighting the struggles of ordinary people.

 
The book examines these movements within their historical and social contexts, revealing how intellectual, social, and political currents shaped them. It begins by defining the core principles of each movement and tracing its historical roots, then analyzes their similarities and differences.

 
By understanding these literary movements, readers can gain a deeper appreciation for the present and a clearer vision for the future, seeing literature not as static but as a dynamic force.

To know Sir Walter Scott as a man is as delightful and fruitful an experience as to appreciate the greatness of his books.


In the bicentenary year of the publication of Sir Walter Scott's first novel Waverley, this is a timely republication of John Buchan's biography of Scott - one great storyteller exploring the life of another.



Buchan's sympathetic treatment of Scott is perceptive, and his enthusiasm for Scott's work is infectious. Interspersed with superb extracts exhibiting Scott's storytelling skills, John Buchan's short introduction to Scott has never been bettered. To this day, he remains the ideal advocate and guide to the great Sir Walter Scott.


John Buchan is the very person to get us reading Scott again, abandoning the superficial media distractions for a grand rumbling rollercoaster of a read - ideal for a stage coach journey, an airport wait, or a holiday lived out of time.

FROM THE INTRODUCTION BY DONALD SMITH


The almost inspired literary criticism of Sir Walter Scott shows Buchan at his best.

This Autistic Girl Went to Japan is the inspiring story of a young woman who moved halfway around the world in pursuit of happiness. With humor and remarkable candor, Bianca describes the challenges of applying for a visa during a time of terrifying uncertainty, slogging through endless red tape, and the loneliness that comes with being a stranger in a strange land. Oh, and how she wound up evicting a bat from her new apartment, attending a Pokémon GO event with a bunch of middle-aged women, and discovering the best thrift store in all of Tokyo. Along the way, she explains why she feels so at home in Japan, where things are often a bit easier for autistic folks. Well, except for revenue stamps. And opening a bank account. And faxes.
