Walter Scott was a Scottish novelist, poet, and historian who lived from 1771 to 1832. He is considered one of the most important writers of the Romantic era and is known for his historical novels, which often featured Scottish themes and characters.
Scott was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and was educated at the University of Edinburgh. After completing his studies, he began working as a lawyer, but his true passion was writing. He published his first book, a collection of poems called "The Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border," in 1802.
