James Hogg

    9 dicembre 1770 – 21 novembre 1835

    James Hogg, noto come "il Pastore di Ettrick", fu un poeta e romanziere scozzese che scrisse sia in scozzese che in inglese. La sua opera si addentra spesso negli aspetti più oscuri della psicologia umana, esplorando temi di fede, ossessione e soprannaturale con una miscela unica di intensità gotica e sensibilità popolare. Lo stile narrativo di Hogg impiega frequentemente narratori inaffidabili e un acume arguto e spesso satirico, che attira i lettori in complesse esplorazioni di credenza e delirio. La sua voce distintiva e la sua fantasiosa narrazione gli assicurano un posto di rilievo nella letteratura scozzese.
