Drawing on the very best of recent scholarship, the History contributes a wide range of new and exciting insights. It takes full account of modern theory, but refuses to be in thrall to critical fashion. It is important not only for literary scholars, but because it changes the very way we think about what Scottishness is.Edinburgh History of Scottish Literature EUPEnglish literatureScottish authorsHistory and criticismScottish literature18th centuryHistory and criticismEnglish literatureScottish authorsHistory and criticism.Scottish literatureHistory and criticism.820.90009411Brown Ian, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut133446Brown Ian1951-1632218Manning Susan1953-1137345MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910813910103321The Edinburgh history of Scottish literature4055291UNINA
