It examines the author's only collection of short stories, Chronicles of the Canongate, periodical and gift-book pieces, and interpolated tales that appeared in the novels. Through careful readings of, amongst others, the Highland stories ('The Highland Widow' and 'The Two Drovers'), his Indian novella (The Surgeon's Daughter), Gothic keepsakes ('My Aunt Margaret's Mirror' and 'The Tapestried Chamber'), and his Calabrian tale Bizarro, this book offers new insights into the production and consumption of short stories, novellas, tales, sketches and other forms of fiction in the early nineteenth century and beyond."-- |cPublisher description. 505 0 Scott and Shorter Fiction -- Wandering Tales -- Croftangry's Narrative -- The Highland Stories -- An Indian Novella -- Gothic Keepsakes -- Fantastic and Bizarro -- Afterword The Modern Scottish Short Story. 600 10 Scott, Walter, |d1771-1832 |xCriticism and interpretation. 650 0 Short stories, English |y19th century |xHistory and criticism. 650 0 Short stories, Scottish |y19th century |xHistory and criticism. 600 17 Scott, Walter, |d1771-1832. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01801529 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 |iebook version : |z9781474487160 910 |cC0402mon |d3110-07 |gYBP |h990354 914 (OCoLC)on1255883772 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240717 |eprocessed |f1255883772 980 |i100.00 |j82.00 |n40030655854 982 |bFY22 |cf |n2022 |q32101112978679 986 |hPR5341 |i.C66 2021
