Harrison, and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Scott's Lady of the Lake" by Walter Scott is a narrative poem written in the early 19th century. This work is set against the backdrop of the Scottish Highlands and intricately weaves themes of chivalry, romance, and the clash between various clans. The poem features key characters such as the noble knight James Fitz-James and the Lady Ellen, reflecting the social and political tensions of Scotland during its turbulent history. At the start of the poem, a huntsman known as James Fitz-James becomes lost in the wild while pursuing a stag. After his horse collapses, he finds refuge at Ellen's family home on an island in Loch Katrine. Though startled to meet him, Ellen offers her hospitality alongside her mother, Dame Margaret. Meanwhile, the poem hints at the brewing conflicts among clans, particularly involving Roderick Dhu, a rebellious chief, and the outlawed Douglas clan, suggesting that the peace of this picturesque setting is threatened by deeper, underlying hostilities. The stage is set for a tale filled with both beauty and strife, as the characters navigate their loyalties and personal aspirations amidst the looming challenges.
