   Extractions: Oliphant, Margaret [nee Wilson] (1828-1897). Novelist. Margaret Wilson was born at Wallyford, near Edinburgh, on 4 April 1828. She grew up in Glasgow and Liverpool, and in 1849 published her first novel, Passages in the Life of Mrs. Margaret Maitland. The work, with its sharp delineation of Scottish character and setting, proved extremely popular and went through three successive editions. Margaret Wilson followed this with Caleb Field (1851) and Merkland (1851). In 1853 her novel Katie Stewart was serialised in Blackwood's Magazine, beginning a professional and personal association with the Blackwood firm and family that was to last until her death in 1897. In 1852 Margaret Wilson moved to London, where she married her cousin artist Francis William Oliphant. Her work continued unabated, and she produced several novels for serialisation in Blackwood's Magazine , including A Quiet Heart Zaidee (1856) and The Athelings (1857). She was soon earning a steady income from her work, which she was to need after her husband died in 1857, leaving her in debt and with three children to provide for. Between 1861 and 1878 she embarked on an ambitious series of novels on English provincial life, which was to include some of her most accomplished work. The seven novel series, entitled 'The Chronicles of Carlingford', was closely modelled on Anthony Trollope's Barsetshire novels, and bore similarities in concerns and themes to George Eliot's works. The series included

   Extractions: His father was then attorney-general in Cape Colony, but was soon transferred as chief justice to Ceylon. The boy’s education was of the most desultory kind. Far the least useless portion of it belonged to the years 1848 and 1849, when he accompanied his parents on a tour on the continent of Europe. In 1851 he accompanied Jung Bahadur from Colombo to Nepaul. He passed an agreeable time there, and saw enough that was new to enable him to write his first book, A Journey to Katmandu (1852). From Nepaul he returned to Ceylon and thence to England, dallied a little with the English bar, so far at least as to eat dinners at Lincoln’s Inn, and then with the Scottish bar, so far at least as to pass an examination in Roman law. He was more happily inspired when he threw over his legal studies and went to travel in Russia. The outcome of that tour was his book on The Russian Shores of the Black Sea (1853). Between 1853 and 1861 he was successively secretary to Lord Elgin during the negotiation of the Canada Reciprocity treaty at Washington, the companion of the duke of Newcastle on a visit to the Circassian coast during the Crimean War, and Lord Elgin’s private secretary on his expedition to China. Each of these experiences produced a pleasant book of travel. In 1861 he was appointed first secretary in Japan, and might have made a successful diplomatic career if it had not been interrupted, almost at the outset, by a night attack on the legation, in which he nearly lost his life. It seems probable that he never properly recovered from this affair. He returned to England and resigned the service, and was elected to parliament in 1865 for the Stirling Burghs.

   Extractions: Margaret Oliphant, 1828-1897, an extremely prolific writer, produced several novels and stories that place her in the front rank of Victorian fiction. Born at Wallyford, East Lothian, she grew up mainly in Glasgow and Liverpool. She was an avid reader and began to write at an early age, publishing her first novel, Passages in the life of Margaret Maitland , in 1849. Thereafter, for the best part of half a century, she produced fiction, biography, travel books and articles on a vast range of topics. Although she lived only for short periods in Scotland, many of her novels have Scottish themes, both historical and contemporaneous. Among her earlier Scottish novels is Katie Stewart , a true story (1853), set in 1745 and drawing on her own family background. A later Scottish novel, Effie Ogilvie (1886), explores the difficulties of a young woman longing to be more than a merely decorative wife. After the death of her husband in 1859, Oliphant relied on her writing to support her family. She had to take on journalistic work and wrote frequently for Blackwood's magazine . She felt that the pressure to write for money denied her the opportunity to produce first-rate work, but nevertheless she had a "powerful impulse towards excellence", a phrase she uses of one of her own characters, which led to some impressive fiction. After decades of neglect, her achievement is now beginning to be recognised.
