Description

This scholarly collection examines John Buchan's pivotal role in early twentieth-century literature, bridging popular culture and modernist thought. The contributors analyse Buchan's engagement with empire, psychoanalysis and propaganda, positioning his diverse body of work-spanning fiction, journalism, philosophy and Scottish history-within the critical debate between mass appeal and literary elite. The volume represents middlebrow studies at its strongest, exploring how Buchan's writing intersects with canonical modernist authors whilst maintaining connections to prolific Victorian and Edwardian figures. Essential reading for literary scholars and students of modernism seeking to understand how popular authors shaped intellectual discourse during this transformative period.
