Internal Evidence and Elizabethan Dramatic Authorship : An Essay in Literary …

George Eliot's Religious Imagination : A Theopoetical Evolution

Writing, she argues, might be said to have become the novelist's religion and ‘its most recognizable tenet was the living out of incarnation'. Here, Orr examines Eliot's works more or less chronologically because of the deeply evolutionary quality to Eliot's career. In a…

Gaelic Scotland in the Colonial Imagination : Anglophone Writing From 1600 to…
Can Scotland be considered an English colony? Is its experience and literature comparable to that of overseas postcolonial countries? Or are such comparisons no more than victimology to mask Scottish complicity in the British Empire and justify nationalism? These questions have been heatedly debated in the aftermath of the 2014 referendum on independence and amid a continuing campaign for more …
