This study argues for Hogg's centrality to British Romanticism, resituating his work in relation to many of his more famous Romantic contemporaries. Hogg creates a unique literary style which, the author argues, is best described as 'kaleidoscopic' in view of its similarities with David Brewster's kaleidoscope, invented in 1816.

Meiko O'Halloran is Lecturer in Romantic Literature at Newcastle University, UK. She has published various articles and essays on aspects of Scottish and British Romanticism.
