Despite little formal education, Hogg wrote one of the finest novels in Scottish literature, a disturbing tale of the divided self that still resonates.

#BAVS2019 has been such a great experience. I’ve learned a great deal from the conference, especially about The Celtic Revival. I am working on a Scottish author and have been very happy to learn more about Scotland in the nineteenth century. You’ve done so well, Dundee!
