Reseña del libro "Narrative of the Life of Sir Walter Scott, Bart., Volume I. Early Years to 1818 (en Inglés)"

This modern scholarly edition is based on the two-volume abridged edition of 1848, which in being less weighed down by supplementary materials provides a more fluent record of Lockhart’s own often personally informed narrative. Volume I includes a substantial Introduction which presents an account of the genesis of the project, its initial completion in 1837-38 in the face of great difficulties, and subsequent publication history, during which it played a key part in establishing Scott’s reputation and finally relieving his debts. Explanatory annotation identifies elements such as allusions, personalities and events, while interrogating some of Lockhart’s more problematic statements. A special category of Textual Notes summarises omissions from the larger versions of the Life, as well as tracking new text as provided by the 1848 edition. In addition to commemorating Lockhart’s mammoth literary achievement, this edition through its various components effectively offers an encyclopaedic record of Scott’s life and output.

The first critical edition of J. G. Lockhart’s classic biography of Walter Scott.
