Art and Identity in Scotland

Beschreibung

This lively and erudite cultural history of Scotland, from the Jacobite defeat of 1745 to the death of an icon, Sir Walter Scott, in 1832, weaves together previously unpublished archival materials, visual and material culture, dress and textile history to examine how Scottish identity was experienced and represented in novel ways.
