James Hogg

    9. prosinec 1770 – 21. listopad 1835

    James Hogg, známý jako „pastýř z Ettricku“, byl skotský básník a prozaik, který psal ve skotském a anglickém jazyce. Jeho dílo, často inspirované jeho životem v přírodě a venkovskou kulturou, se vyznačuje směsí gotické hrůzy, humoru a hluboké psychologické sondy. Hogg mistrně zkoumal témata víry, posedlosti a temné stránky lidské duše, často s využitím nespolehlivých vypravěčů a satirického nadhledu. Jeho jedinečný styl a originalita z něj činí pozoruhodnou postavu skotské literatury.
