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. 410 0$aEngagements with modern Scottish culture. 410 0$aEdinburgh scholarship online. 606 $aEnglish literature$xBlack authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$xAsian authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$xScottish authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBlack people in literature 606 $aAsians in literature 606 $aBlack people$zScotland$xSocial conditions 606 $aAsians$zScotland$xSocial conditions 615 0$aEnglish literature$xBlack authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xAsian authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xScottish authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBlack people in literature. 615 0$aAsians in literature. 615 0$aBlack people$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aAsians$xSocial conditions. 676 $a820.9896041 700 $aJackson$b Joseph H.$01221148 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996465256603316 996 $aWriting Black scotland$92831367 997 $aUNISA
