Author Name
Sir Walter Scott (Author)
Sir Walter Scott, 1st Baronet, FRSE (15 August 1771 – 21 September 1832) was a Scottish historical novelist, playwright and poet with many contemporary readers in Europe, Australia, and North America.Scott's novels and poetry are still read, and many of his works remain classics of both English-language literature and of Scottish literature. Famous titles include Ivanhoe, Rob Roy, Old Mortality, The Lady of the Lake, Waverley, The Heart of Midlothian and The Bride of Lammermoor.Although primarily remembered for his extensive literary works and his political engagement, Scott was an advocate, judge and legal administrator by profession, and throughout his career combined his writing and editing work with his daily occupation as Clerk of Session and Sheriff-Depute of Selkirkshire.A prominent member of the Tory establishment in Edinburgh, Scott was an active member of the Highland Society and served a long term as President of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (1820–32).Bio from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Die Schicksale von Nigel (1822) ist einer der Waverley-Romane von Sir Walter Scott. Der Roman spielt in London im Jahr 1623 oder 1624 und dreht sich um die schottische Gemeinschaft dort nach der Union der Kronen.

Er handelt von Jakob VI. bzw.

Jakob I. Scotts Hauptquellen für The Fortunes of Nigel waren jakobinische Dramen und andere phantasievolle Literatur der Zeit, aber er war auch mit anderen zeitgenössischen Veröffentlichungen und neueren Studien gut vertraut.

Für seine Darstellung von James und Einzelheiten der Ereignisse während seiner Herrschaft konnte er weitgehend auf seine eigene, 1811 veröffentlichte Ausgabe von Secret History of the Court of James the First zurückgreifen, die eine Reihe zeitgenössischer oder früherer Memoiren und Geschichten enthält. Der James des Romans wird bewusst ausgewogener behandeltEin junger schottischer Adliger, Nigel Olifaunt, Lord Glenvarloch, reist nach London, um den König um die Rückzahlung des Darlehens seines Vaters zu bitten.

Nigel möchte mit dem Geld eine Hypothek auf sein Anwesen abbezahlen – doch der Herzog von Buckingham und Prinz Charles haben bereits ein Auge darauf geworfen. Der Lord wird in das chaotische Leben des Hofes hineingezogen und gerät in große Gefahr, als er zum Feind des verschwenderischen Lord Dalgarno wird.
