Contributions to Musical Collections and Miscellaneous Songs

James Hogg

Kirsteen McCue

The proposed Contributions to Musical Collections and Miscellaneous Songs volume provides access to the relevant material in the various musical collections to which Hogg refers in his 1831 head notes, thus allowing the new readers of the 21st century to see in facsimile what Hogg himself saw. This procedure provides a broader context – in literary and musical terms – in which to enhance our understanding of the reception of Hogg’s songs during his lifetime.
