The book reads Blackness in Scottish writing from the 1970s to the early 2000s, a period of history defined by post-imperial adjustment. Critiquing a unifying Britishness at work in Black British criticism, Jackson argues for the importance of Black politics in Scottish writing, and for a literary registration of race and racism which signals a necessary negotiation for national Scotland both before and after 1997.Engagements with modern Scottish culture.Edinburgh scholarship online.English literatureBlack authorsHistory and criticismEnglish literatureAsian authorsHistory and criticismEnglish literatureScottish authorsHistory and criticismEnglish literature20th centuryHistory and criticismBlack people in literatureAsians in literatureBlack peopleScotlandSocial conditionsAsiansScotlandSocial conditionsEnglish literatureBlack authorsHistory and criticism.English literatureAsian authorsHistory and criticism.English literatureScottish authorsHistory and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.Black people in literature.Asians in literature.Black peopleSocial conditions.AsiansSocial conditions.820.9896041Jackson Joseph H.1221148StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK996465256603316Writing Black scotland2831367UNISA03438nam 2200505 450 991080612600332120230415172628.01-64602-202-510.1515/9781646022021(MiAaPQ)EBC6801625(Au-PeEL)EBL6801625(CKB)19410568800041(DE-B1597)617258(DE-B1597)9781646022021(OCoLC)1300916636(MdBmJHUP)musev2_99846(OCoLC)1294425994(EXLCZ)991941056880004120230415d2018 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMiddle Egyptian /Peter BeylageUniversity Park, PA :Eisenbrauns,[2018]©20181 online resource (860 pages)Languages of the Ancient near EastPrint version: Beylage, Peter Middle Egyptian University Park : Penn State University Press,c2018 9781575069777 Includes bibliographical references.Frontmatter --CONTENTS --Abbreviations --Preface --Introduction --PART I WRITING SYSTEM AND WORD CLASSES --PART II OVERVIEW OF THE DIFFERENT SENTENCE PATTERNS AND NON-VERBAL SENTENCE PATTERNS --PART III PSEUDO-VERBAL AND VERBAL CLAUSES --PART IV EMBEDDED CLAUSES --PART V SPECIAL SENTENCE PATTERNS --APPENDICESThis grammar provides a comprehensive overview of Middle Egyptian and illustrates its grammatical features with extensive examples from various sources. Exercises at the end of each chapter, along with a sign list and a hieroglyphic word list, provide the reader with the means to apply and practice the content, enabling this book to be used as both a grammar reference and a textbook.The book's structure and detailed outline facilitate its use as a reference, making it easy to find information on any particular grammatical feature. At the same time, the extensive content of the forty chapters provides a suitable basis for self-guided study and enables the student to read and understand Egyptian inscriptions and literary texts in hieroglyphic transliteration. Recent developments in the understanding of Egyptian are exemplified in numerous "ations from Egyptian texts, and exercises at the end of each chapter provide further opportunity for considering the grammatical phenomena discussed in the chapter, allowing for both practice and review. For reasons of convenience, the vocabulary necessary for the exercises, along with the words used in the examples, are arranged into a word list at the end of the book. Similar and alternative grammatical constructions are compared, and in addition to the "classical" language of the Middle Kingdom, the book considers both Old Egyptian and Late Egyptian influences.
