| Abstract
|
:
|
"Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832) was once a household name, but is now largely forgotten. This book explores how Scott's work became an all pervasive point of reference for cultural memory and collective identity iin the nineteenth century, and why it no longer has this role."--Back cover
