J Crawford Scott

Elspeth: A Drama Founded On A Tradition Of The South Of Scotland is a play written by J. Crawford Scott and published in 1880. The play is set in the Scottish Lowlands and is based on a local legend about a woman named Elspeth who was accused of being a witch. The play follows Elspeth as she is put on trial for her alleged crimes and the community's reactions to her situation. The play explores themes of superstition, fear, and the power dynamics between the accused and the accusers. The characters are vividly drawn and the dialogue is rich and evocative of the time period.
