"a glimpse of Sir Walter Scott"
Who Sir Walter Scott?
Sir Walter Scott was born in Edinhburg, Scotland, August 15, 1771, died September 21, 1832. He is the most famous British author in opening the nineteenth century with romantic stories and narrative poetry based on historical stories. Two of his most popular works are Waverly (1814) and Ivanhoe (1820).
Scott's childhood is no fun. He is often ill and suffering must be endured for life in the form of a limp leg. Therefore, his early works were not published in his own name, as a result of feelings of inferiority. However, his works which appeared after 1825 used his name, as well as in previous works after being reprinted.
In 1802 - 1903 his first quality works appeared, namely three volumes of ballads taken from Scottish oral stories. His other works are Minstrelsy, Lay of the Last Minstrel (1805), Lady of the Lake (1810), Guy Mannering (1815), Old Mortality (1816), Rob Roy (1817), collection of Rokeby's poems (1813), Quentin Durward (1823), The Talisman (1825), Anne of Geierstein (1829).
Like many famous authors who experienced financial difficulties, Scott experienced in 1826 which caused him to have to write more works. Scott's works show the historical and old world background - the Scots and British. His famous work, Ivanhoe (one of my favorites) tells the story of medieval times in England, which is the depiction of the conflict between Anglo-Saxons and Normans. The conflict was expressed with a unique style of language and very impressive as a romantic author.
Scott showed excellent ability especially his mastery of historical materials and disposition issues. Characters such as Ivanhoe, Cedric, Rowena, Isaac and York show a very impressive depiction of character, where the use of antagonists and protagonists with regard to the characters sociologically is very precise and strong. This work shows Scott's superiority especially compared to a number of his other works, also from the author of his generation. As a romantic writer, Scott left a hefty influence on the author's genera- tion afterwards where his work became a fitting reference and example for a romantic literary form.
