Synopsis

Part of the thought-provoking and authoritiative series - Scotland: The Making and Unmaking of the Nation c. 1100-1700. Volume 1 (The Scottish Nation: Origins to c. 1500) comprises specially commissioned essays by a strong field of expert authors. It starts with a numer of broadly chronological chapters, furnishing a basic narrative, which are followed by a range of more thematic ones. Some of the themes to emerge are the Highland-Lowland divide, urbanisation, Scottish identity, and Anglo-Scottish relations. There is an emphasis on cultural history and a key theme is Scotland's involvement in a broader European past.
