{"product_id":"walter-scott-at-250-looking-forward","title":"Walter Scott at 250","description":"Walter Scott in the twenty-first century\n\nTen essays that show Scott is a man for our times\nMajor scholars introduce a new Walter Scott\nNew ideas on the novel and temporality\nNew ideas about Scott's playful textuality\nIntroducing the women of Abbotsford\n\nAt 250, Walter Scott points toward our possible futures. Scott, although we necessarily look on his times as past, of course experienced them as present. His times were times of crisis. Scott, then, has much to share in the experience, narration, anticipation and response to change as a condition of life   a condition our era, with its existential challenges to climate, to public health, to civilization knows only too well. In Scott at 250, major scholars foreground the author as theorist of tomorrow   as the surveyor of the complexities of the present who also gazes, as we do, toward an anxious and hopeful future.","brand":"Edinburgh University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40620543934547,"sku":"9781474429870","price":28.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781474429870.jpg?v=1778601638","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/walter-scott-at-250-looking-forward","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
