Download or read book Modern John Buchan written by Nathan Waddell and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an introduction to the breadth and diversity of the literary and non-literary work of John Buchan (1875–1940). It stakes a claim for him as an engaged interpreter of twentieth-century modernity, and provides evaluative readings of his output. In addition to demonstrating how Buchan’s work complicates the reductive view of early twentieth-century literature as neatly cordoned-off into “low” and “high” forms of production, this book discusses his theories of empire and imperialism, his account of historiography, and his response to the First World War. In addition to his many roles as a journalist, propagandist, war reporter, editor, civil servant, and statesman, Buchan was a committed literary critic, philosopher, and writer of history. This book explores the many connections between his work and such modernists as Joseph Conrad, Ford Madox Ford, D. H. Lawrence, and Wyndham Lewis, and it situates Buchan as an intellectual figure who provided a distinctive set of readings of his modern times. Running throughout is a consideration of Buchan’s fascination with binaries, doubles, and duality, which his work variously upholds and investigates. It ends with a discussion of Buchan’s most famous work—The Thirty-Nine Steps (1915)—in relation to paranoia and pathology.

Book excerpt: "Andrew Lownie's acclaimed biography - the first in over thirty years - reveals a character as complex and fascinating as any in his great quartet of thrillers starring master spy Richard Hannay. He succeeds in the daunting task of retelling Buchan's life in all its variety, breadth, and complexity. Based on exhaustive research and drawing on private papers previously unavailable to biographers, this is a compelling picture of Buchan's life, and a panoramic view of British political, social, and literary circles during the first half of the twentieth-century."--Jacket.

With a mix of espionage, political intrigue, and daring escapades, the book provides readers with a captivating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century espionage literature. Buchan's writing style is both engaging and evocative, drawing readers into a world of danger and excitement. His attention to detail and intricate plots make each novel a page-turner that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. John Buchan, a Scottish novelist and politician, drew inspiration from his own experiences in the British intelligence services during World War I to write his spy novels. His background in politics and diplomacy lends a sense of authenticity to his stories, adding depth and complexity to the characters and plots. Buchan's keen insight into human nature and his understanding of the geopolitical landscape of his time are evident in his nuanced portrayals of spies and secret agents. I highly recommend 'The Complete Novels of John Buchan' to readers who enjoy action-packed thrillers with a historical twist. Buchan's storytelling prowess and his unique perspective on the world of espionage make this collection a must-read for fans of spy fiction and adventure novels.
