Take the high road

Article Abstract:

Colin Manlove's book 'Scottish Fantasy Literature: A Critical Survey' explores Scottish literature and fantasy tradition. It contains 13 substantive chapters that discuss such topics as the beginning of Scottish fantasy and the works of James Hogg, George MacDonald, Robert Louis Stevenson and J.M. Barrie. Manlove concludes that Scottish fantasy is characterized by the basic lack of confidence in the conscious or civil self, and the emphasis on female power and worth.
