Free Thinking - The Thirty-Nine Steps

Wed1, 2 Jul 14

John Buchan's The Thirty-Nine Steps first appeared in Blackwoods Magazine in August and September 1915 and depicts2 Europe on the edge of war in May and June 1914. It quickly became popular reading in the trenches3 and on the home front, and 100 years and three film adaptations later, its popularity is enduring. Matthew Sweet talks to biographer Andrew Lownie and scholars Dr Michael Redley and Dr Kate Macdonald about the connections between Buchan's own war experience and The 39 Steps, and to Professors Elleke Boehmer and Terence Ranger4 about how ideas about empire and adventure play out in the novel.
