Description

Explore the complex legacy of a prolific author with John Buchan and the Idea of Modernity (Literary Texts and the Popular Marketplace). Published by Routledge, this volume examines John Buchan not just as a writer of fiction, journalism, philosophy, and Scottish history, but as a central figure in the tension between popular culture and the modernist elite. By looking at his engagement with empire, psychoanalysis, and propaganda, the contributors place Buchan at the heart of significant literary debates. This collection serves as a strong example of middlebrow studies, offering an invitation to study how Buchan's work overlaps with canonical modernist authors and prolific Victorian writers. It is an essential resource for readers interested in how popular literature engages with the shifting intellectual landscapes of his time.
