Topic: John Wilson 1627


  
  John Wilson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Wilson (May 18, 1785 - April 3, 1854) was a Scottish writer, the Christopher North of Blackwood's Magazine.
Before this, Wilson had contributed to Blackwood's prose tales and sketches, and novels, some of which were afterwards published separately in Lights and Shadows of Scottish Life (1822), The Trials of Margaret Lyndsay (1823) and The Foresters (1825); later appeared essays on Edmund Spenser, Homer and all sorts of modern subjects and authors.
Wilson made a very excellent professor, never perhaps attaining to any great scientific knowledge in his subject or power of expounding it, but acting on generation after generation of students with a stimulating force that is far more valuable than the most exhaustive knowledge of a particular topic.
