About this ebook

This volume offers new ways of reading Scottish texts and culture within the context of an altered political framework and a changing sense of national identity. With the re-establishment of a Parliament in Edinburgh, issues of nationality and nationalism can be looked at afresh. It is timely now to revisit representations of Scottish culture in cinematography and literature, and also to examine aspects of gender, sexuality and ideology that have shaped how Scots have come to understand themselves. Established and younger critics use a variety of theoretical approaches here to catch an authentic sense of a post-modern Scotland in the process of change.Literature and the arts provide radical ways of knowing what Scotland, in theory, could become. Accompanying textbook (ISBN 9042009101) available at EUR 25.00 (minimum order 10 copies)
