    Extractions: "Letters on Demonology and Witchcraft" The text that I have used here has been taken from the 29th Volume of "The Miscellaneous Works of Sir Walter Scott, Bart." which has been published in 1871 by Adam and Charles Black of Edinburgh. If you want, you can compare Scott's version of the story to the original which was written by Saxo Grammaticus And in case you have a serious interest in Sir Walter Scott and his work, I can recommend you to visit the Walter Scott Digital Archive , a scholarly resource maintained by Edinburgh University Library. Story of Assueit and Asmund: "The Norse men were the more prone to these superstitions, because it was a favourite fancy of theirs that, in many instances, the change from life to death altered the temper of the human spirit from benignant to malevolent; or perhaps, that when the soul left the body, its departure was occassionally supplied by a wicked demon, who took the opportunity to enter and occupy its late habitation. Upon such a supposition the wild fiction that follows is probably grounded; which, extravagant as it is, possesses something striking to the imagination. Saxo Grammaticus tells us of the fame of two Norse princes or chiefs, who had formed what was called a brotherhood in arms, implying not only the firmest friendship and constant support during all the adventures which they should undertake in life, but binding them by a solemn compact, that after the death of either, the survivor should descend alive into the sepulchre of his brother-in-arms, and consent to be buried along with him. The task of fulfilling this dreadful compact fell upon Asmund - his companion Assueit, having been slain in battle.

    http://www.lucidcafe.com/library/95aug/scott.html
    
    Extractions: Sir Walter Scott was born on August 15, 1771 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Scott created and popularized historical novels in a series called the Waverley Novels. In his novels Scott arranged the plots and characters so the reader enters into the lives of both great and ordinary people caught up in violent, dramatic changes in history. Scott's work shows the influence of the 18th century enlightenment. He believed every human was basically decent regardless of class, religion, politics, or ancestry. Tolerance is a major theme in his historical works. The Waverley Novels express his belief in the need for social progress that does not reject the traditions of the past. He was the first novelist to portray peasant characters sympathetically and realistically, and was equally just to merchants, soldiers, and even kings. Central themes of many of Scott's novels are about conflicts between opposing cultures. Ivanhoe (1791) is about war between Normans and Saxons. The Talisman (1825) is about conflict between Christians and Muslims. His novels about Scottish history deal with clashes between the new English culture and the old Scottish. Scott's other great novels include "Old Mortality" (1816), "The Heart of Midlothian" (1819), and "St Ronan's Well" (1824). His Waverley series includes "Rob Roy" (1817), "A Legend of Montrose" (1819), and "Quentin Dunward" (1823).

    Extractions: Sir Walter Scott was one of those "author-lawyers" (think Terry Brooks or John Grisham), laboring at the law for over 30 years while writing "on the side" and proving extremely prolific. Born in Edinburgh on August 15, 1771, Scott had polio as a toddler and bore with a limp the rest of his life. Due to his health, he spent a lot of time as a child at his grandfather's country home in the Borders (southern Scotland) and eventually, when money and position permitted, built himself a castle there called Abbotsford. Like his castle, "flamboyant" well describes Scott who enjoyed his fame, his fortune and being in the limelight. After writing poetry for several years (eg, The Lay of the Last Minstrel, Marmion

Although the men were away, Fitz-James was taken in and extended Highland hospitality. It disturbed Fitz-James that this girl bore such a resemblance to members of the hunted Douglas clan. Nevertheless, he was smitten by Ellen's beauty and kindness and dreamed of her as he slept. On the next morning Fitz-James left the island with a guide. Later, Roderick and Douglas returned home from their separate journeys, Douglas accompanied bv young Malcolm Graeme. Roderick, a fierce, plundering, middle-aged warrior, hoped to i-narry Ellen, both because he loved her and because their marriage would unite Clan Douglas with Clan Alpine to create a powerful political force. Although Ellen appreciated Roderick's protection, she was frightened by his manner and had set her heart on Malcolm Graeme, her first suitor, whom Roderick despised. When Roderick extended his marriage proposal to her in the company of all, Malcolm detected Ellen's deep disquiet, but before he could speak, her father interceded, explaining tactfully that such a union would be a political misalliance; Roderick was a sworn enemy of the King, while he, Douglas, in spite of his outlawed status, still loved his monarch.
