THE ONLY EDITION with EVERY WORD on the SAME PAGE, on the SAME LINE, and practically the SAME PLACE as in the 1824 original-with "An Afterword" revealing secrets of the curse of the memoir...
Decode the Secrets-Discover What Critics Have Overlooked...
THIS EDITION reveals secrets of the curse overlooked by critics and scholars for nearly 200 years, which include:
word/number riddles, such as how the word "seventeen" appears only once in the entire book-precisely on page 17...
mysterious correlations of words, numbers, and biblical verses;
the hidden meanings and significance of dates, directions, and other references...
"Justified Sinning" & Justified Typesetting
In the "Afterword," literary analyst Jaix Chaix helps readers (re-)discover the genius of author James Hogg and his meticulously precise methods of composition. Chaix reveals how "justified" has as much to do with sinning, as it does typesetting. And while Chaix reveals "a devil in the detail," he doesn't spoil the mystery and meaning of it all.
Beware. If you read any other edition or format without:
the word "seventeen" on page 17
and the phrase "a quarter of an hour" on page 183
You'll be "cursed"-and won't be able to solve Hogg's secret riddles or the mystery of memoir...

Описание: James Hogg (1770-1835) was a Scottish poet, novelist and essayist who wrote in both Scots and English. As a young man he worked as a shepherd and farmhand and was largely self-educated through reading. He became a friend of many of the great writers of his day, including Sir Walter Scott of whom he later wrote an unauthorised biography. He was widely known as Ettrick Shepherd, a nickname under wihich some of his works were published, and the character name he was given in the widely read series Noctes Abrosianae published in Blackwood's Magazine. This work was first published anonymously in 1824, the first edition selling very poorly, and it continued to suffer critical neglect throughout the 19th century. However, during the 20th century it won greater critical attention and was praised by Andre Gide in his introduction to the 1947 reissue. The book has been considered by turns part gothic novel, part psychological mystery, part satire and part case study of totalitarian thought, and has also been thought of as an early example of modern crime fiction in which the story is told for the most part from the point of view of its criminal anti-hero.

Описание: "The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner." "It being a story replete with horrors, after I had written it," says Hogg, "I durst not venture to put my name to it"; and it has often been asserted that part of the writing was Lockhart's. It is very nearly a masterpiece of its kind, a kind somewhere between Bunyan and a spiritual Defoe. It might have suggested Poe's "William Wilson," and it has a horror which even Poe has hardly exceeded. But it is as a piece of psychology that it is most remarkable: the lean, dry record of a wrinkled soul, which projects its own devil upon the outer air, and dies the suicide of its enemy, itself.Here, for once (was this really some helping influence of Lockhart ?) Hogg is grimly self-possessed, master of his material. He tells us proudly that he never re-wrote. Not to revise means, to him, "to hold fast my integrity"; he will try to write better next time, but what he has written he has written. The consequence of this proud incapacity is that all but his very best work is both spun out to weakness and marred by abundant absurdities of language. The Scotch dialect was at once a help and a disguise to him. Sometimes the difference is only apparent, but for the most part he is better able to mould words to his thought out of the homely dialect whose shades of meaning were so much clearer to him than those of English. --The Lamp: A Review and Record of Current Literature, Volume 29 1904]

Описание: Fiction. Classics. Gothic. Religion & Spirituality. Published anonymously in 1824 in Scotland, this gothic psychological tale will leave readers grasping for the truth. Weaving themes of good versus evil, psychosis, mystery, and religious extremism all wrapped in metafiction, Hogg's masterpiece reads like it could have been written today.
