Gael and Lowlander in Scottish Literature: Cross-Currents in Scottish Writing in the Nineteenth Century - Occasional Papers
Christopher Maclachlan
The nineteenth century saw the romanticisation of the Highlander, the rise of tartanry and the emergence of the modern Scottish tourist industry. This volume examines the literary culture of Scotland - Highland and Lowland - during this transformational period, and explore its interactions and intersections.
Marc Notes: The nineteenth century saw the romanticisation of the Highlander, the rise of tartanry, and the emergence of the modern Scottish tourist industry. It also witnessed the worst excesses of the Clearances and the beginnings of an exodus from the Highlands to the industrial cities and to the colonies. This volume explores the interactions between Highland and Lowland poetry, prose, drama and song, in English, Scots, and Gaelic. Ranging from Sir Walter Scott to the writers of the fin de siecle Celtic Revival, fourteen essays show how the crossing and re-crossing of the Highland Line shaped Scottish literature in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and how it continues to do so today.
