Extractions: NYRB home About NYRB Authors Browse ... Introductions James Hogg (1770-1835) was born in the Ettrick Valley in the Scottish Borders. When he was seven, his father, a sheep farmer, went bankrupt and Hogg left school hardly able to read; he could only shape letters "nearly an inch in length," he wrote later in his autobiography. For many years, he worked as a cowherd and later as a shepherd. His mother, however, steeped him in ballads and folklore, and his grandfather was apparently the last man to talk with the fairies. Only in his twenties, when Hogg was exposed to books once more, did he begin to write, his first creations being "songs and ballads made up for the lassies to sing in chorus." At forty, he set out for Edinburgh and, after starting the short-lived satirical magazine The Spy , he wrote poems and stories for Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine. The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner , first published in 1824, has long been considered his masterpiece. The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner

Extractions: James Hogg Tijdens het laatste jaar van mijn studie in Glasgow heb ik een aantal schrijvers uit de Schotse literatuur bestudeerd, waarvan er naar mijn mening één met kop en schouders boven menig andere uitsteekt, James Hogg , bijgenaamd the Ettrick Shepherd . Het meest bekende boek van deze schrijver is ' The Confessions of a Justified Sinner ', waarin Hogg een situatie beschrijft van iemand die we nu een fundamentalist zouden noemen. Iemand die meende een uitverkorene Gods te zijn. Dit idee wordt in het extreme getrokken, en wel zodanig dat de hoofdpersoon een naar zijn mening zondig persoon vermoordt in de stellige overtuiging dat hij handelt volgens de wil van God. De lezer ontdekt dat het echter de duivel is die hem leidt. Nu, bijna twee eeuwen later, een uiterst actueel onderwerp! During the final year of my studies in Glasgow I studied a number of writers belonging to Scottish literature, of which one, to my mind, surpassed them all, James Hogg , also called the Ettrick Shepherd . His most famous novel is ' The Confessions of a Justified Sinner ', in which Hogg derscribes a situation of someone we would now call a fundamentalist. Someone who sees himself as God's chosen. This idea is taken to such an extreme, that he thinks he is justified in killing a person whom he thinks sinful. He is of the opinion that he does what God wants of him. The reader, however, that it is the Devil that takes him by the hand.

Extractions: A study of the relationship between Sir Walter Scott and James Hogg (1770-1835), the Ettrick Shepherd, is important in the light of the recent belated recognition of Hogg as a major Scottish writer. Hogg's present standing, founded mainly on a new appreciation of his most significant work The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner , is in stark contrast to the neglect that he has suffered since Scott's day. Though Hogg did enjoy considerable success and popularity during his lifetime, his fame was based on his poetry, which is now all but forgotten and rarely read. His success was also partly due to his association with Scott, whose patronage and friendship was to provide Hogg with valuable contacts and financial help. The two writers were both raised in the Scottish Borders, although in Scott's case only partly. Scott's upbringing in
