The Selected Works of Margaret Oliphant, Part III - Novellas and Shorter Fiction, Essays on Life-Writing and History, Essays on European Literature and Culture (Hardcover)

This is the most ambitious scholarly critical edition of Oliphant's work ever undertaken. The sheer scale of her output has meant that selection is essential, but the edition aims to convey the range and variety of her work in both fiction and non-fictional genres. It will bring together for the first time her critical writing and other journalism for Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, the Spectator, the St James's Gazette, as well as her articles in the Contemporary Review, the Edinburgh, and Macmillan's Magazine. Much of her fiction, including full length novels, short stories and novellas, was first published in periodicals: in Blackwood's, the Cornhill, Longman's Magazine, Macmillan's, and Good Words. Few of her manuscripts survive, but substantive textual work remains to be done on the editorial changes made between periodical serialization and first appearance in volume form. The edition will place particular emphasis on her shorter fiction, much of which will be reprinted for the first time, and on her work as a biographer, historian, and literary historian.
