Jonathan Oldbuck, the antiquary of the title, has a passion for the past--and delights in trying to convey it.
He meets the mysteriously taciturn young Lovel, and the two strike up a friendship, bonding over Roman ruins. When Lovel falls for Isabella, daughter of a local landowner, it looks like an impossible situation.
Sharp, funny, gothic, romantic, and full of action, this is a thoroughly entertaining window on Scottish life in the summer of 1794: it was Scott's intention to show the spirit of the times, and how the past affects the present, and it was his own favorite of all his novels.
