Légende

Manuscript of Kenilworth, first published in 1821. Sir Walter Scott's original MS, corrected for the press, of the novel of Kenilworth (first published in 1821, written between September 1820 and January 1821). The page contains the end of chapter 10 and the beginning of chapter 11 of volume iii, including the last interview between the Earl of Leicester and the Countess Amy. The detached signature is taken from a letter to Mrs Slade, written in 1821 and containing the statement As I am not the author of Waverley nor in any way connected with these very successful novels. From the third series of Facsimiles of royal, historical, literary and other autographs in the Department of Manuscripts, British Museum: Series I-V, (London, 1899).
