Scott was the first British novelist to discover in landscape a
literary as well as a pictoral medium, an insight which he exploits
to powerful effect in his Scottish novels. Mr Reed's book breaks
new ground by demonstrating the originality of Scott's landscapes,
in which romantic nature takes its place in a realistic context of
people, history, architecture and traditions. The author shows how,
as poet and novelist, Scott explores the notion of place to a depth
where it operates not merely as dramatic background but as a force
which shapes and directs the minds of its inhabitants. This study
adds a new dimension to the understanding of Scott's work.
