Scotland. "The Lady of the Lake" by Sir Walter Scott. Iwanami Bunko (Iwanami Paperback). Translated by Naoyasu Irie. 20th printing, February 7, 2019. In good condition. Multiple copies available for sale. One unforgettable memory is meeting Dame Jean Maxwell-Scott, a direct descendant of Scott, at Abbotsford, Scotland, and spending the whole day with her. I was very well taken care of. We had afternoon tea and buttered toast together, and she asked me: "Which of Scott's works do you like?" ✨"Anne of Green Gables" by Canadian author L.M. Montgomery, a book lover, loved Scott's "The Lady of the Lake," which was in her textbooks. During her honeymoon in 1911, she visited Abbotsford, the setting of the work, with its castle-like garden and a magnificent study. One of the only three books at her maternal grandparents' home, where she was raised and spent half her life, was also by Scott. Throughout her life, she was influenced by and loved the Brontë sisters (though translated as "Bronte" in Japan, the pronunciation symbols indicated by the Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth, England, are "Branch." "Branch" is more accurate). Important authors for Montgomery, such as the Brontë sisters, admired and loved Scott, a master of weaving romantic poems and stories. This is a paperback, so it's very handy to read. Also, as befitting an author who is particular about names, in the sequel, she named Anne's son "Walter," depicting him as a poetry-loving young man who also evokes Scott. By the way, one of Scott's children was also named "Anne." - Title: The Lady of the Lake - Author: Sir Walter Scott - Translator: Naoyasu Irie - Publisher: Iwanami Bunko Thank you for viewing.
