Alongside theatre, television, comedy, and film, it explores performativity in public events, Anglo-Scottish relations, language and literary practice, the Scottish diaspora and concepts of nation, borders and hybridity. .Following discussion of the 1320 Declaration of Arbroath and the real meanings of the 1706/7 Treaty of Union, it examines the differing perceptions of what the ‘United Kingdom’ means to Scots and English. It contrasts the treatment of Shakespeare and Burns as ‘national bards’ and considers the implications of Scottish scholars’ invention of ‘English Literature’. It engages with Scotland’s language politics –rebutting claims of a ‘Gaelic Gestapo’ – and how borders within Scotland interact. It replaces myths about ‘tartan monsters’ with level-headed evidence before discussing in detail representations of Scottishness in domestic and international media.. | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Scotland; United Kingdom; European Union; National Theatre of Scotland; David Greig; Kieran Hurley; Rona M | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-39407-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-39409-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-39407-3 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2020 |
