{"product_id":"edwin-muir-1","title":"Edwin Muir","description":"Rather than emphasising the Christian, transcendental elements in Edwin  Muir's writing, this critical study focuses on the 'single, disunited  world' - a search for meaning and values in the unstable, mundane world.  Taking the reader chronologically through all his major works, it  analyses the significance of Muir's Orcadian background, the influence  of German Romanticism on his early poetry, and his European interests in  general. The stylistic maturity of his later poetry is given particular  attention, as is the relevance of Scotland to his whole work.\n\nAlthough  Muir has traditionally been seen as standing apart from MacDiarmid's  'Renaissance', this challenging new study shows how he did in his own  way fulfil its aim by taking Scottish Literature and criticism back into  the mainstream of European culture.","brand":"Edinburgh University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54246170034520,"sku":"9780748683086","price":42.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780748683086.jpg?v=1768042811","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/edwin-muir-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
